My paradise: baby

Hey guys! So some New Zealanders have gone a bit crazy over this Candle company called Candle Crush. It is a New Zealand based company. So many people obsess over candles and I just don't get how people buy so many candles. I get it, they do smell good and makes your room/house smell good too but most candles are quite expensive. Especially from really popular companies. One of my friends told me there was this discount which can get $10 off your purchase if it's over $30. One of their candles cost around $30 so you'll be able to get the $10 off! :) After my friend told me about the discount, I went on their website and saw the cute designs that they put on the jars and the scents sounded really good. I couldn't resist but to get some! I ended up buying two candles and one melt. I'm giving one of the two candles for a present though so I pretty much just got one candle and one melt for myself.

The main reasons I bought candles from Candle Crush is because:
1. It was $10 off with the discount coupon code! (Who doesn't love getting things for cheaper! haha)
2. The scents sounded really nice and are unique
3. The original price is only $30 which is cheap compared to high end candles which are like $60+ normally.
4. It's free shipping. However, it doesn't not ship internationally! :(
5. The candles burn up to 50 hours!! :o and the candle melts last up to 8 hours.

I only bought these three things from there. The hot chocolate one is a candle melt.

The "Smokin' Hot Chocolate" candle melt. This actually does smell like hot chocolate. It's hard to explain the smell of hot chocolate because it's not exactly chocolate, there's another scent mixed in there. I just know that that's what hot chocolate smells like!

"As snug as a bug in a rug" smells just like baby powder. It's exactly what I was expecting because it'll be the smell of a baby which would be baby powder. It's not the most amazing nor horrible.

The back of the candle looks like this. So adorable and at the back of each candle, there's a cute little description of the candles scent.

KOOKIEEEEEEEE! This one smells like cookies! It's really sweet so definitely don't take a huge sniff at once because that might give you a headache or make you feel sick. When I gave it to my mum to smell, she thought it was a vanilla scent. When I told her it's actually cookie scented, she said "oh yeah, I was close because vanilla is put to make cookies" hahah twisting her own words to make her right!

The back of the cookie scented candle is just cute and on the last line it says "the only thing missing is a glass of milk!" <3 It'd be so cool if they did a milk scented candle and sell this cookie one and the milk one as a set which you can give one to your friend and be like cookies and milk, the perfect combo! ;)

The lid and top of the candle jars look like this. It's plain but does it's job so that's all that matters. It'd look so nice if there was a little diamond shaped handle kind of thing on the lid but it's not a necessity so I'm not major sad about the lid being plain.

The candle looks so big on here haha!

Overall, I enjoyed buying the candles from there and the candles do smell pretty good! The only thing that I'm bummed out about is the fact that I didn't get any samples. :( At least the candles smell good though and it was super fast shipping! I ordered it on Friday and got it today (Monday) which may seem like they didn't ship it out til ages but it was just because the courier doesn't work on Saturday's and Sunday's. They had the post tracker thing on so I saw that they shipped it out really quick.

Baby Oreo

baby

Hey guys, if you only read my blog, then you wouldn't know this but if you've read my tweets lately, then you'd know that we got a puppy on Saturday! I'll just say some facts about him first. He's a black and white Shih Tzu called Oreo. (Get it? It's black and white, just like the colour of an Oreo biscuit.) He's currently 8 weeks, (almost 9) old. He weighs 1.8kg (When we went to the vet today, we saw it on the scale). That's pretty much the facts I think.

Saturday morning:
I woke up early (7am ish) because I was too excited to get this puppy. We weren't leaving until 10am though so I had quite a lot of time to spare. I don't even remember what I was doing, my brain just kept going back to thinking about the puppy.

Saturday afternoon:
At 11am, my mum, dad and I arrived to the owner/sellers house and once we got up to their front door, they handed Oreo to us and my dad held onto him. The owner was super nice, they told us about how to take care of him and all that but they didn't know that we already have a dog at home. Oreo's mum was super adorable! She was begging. I don't know if she was just begging because she can, or if she was begging to have Oreo back to her :'( Or maybe she just wanted food. I really think that it was because she wants Oreo back. So cute but aw, so sad! During the car ride, Oreo was actually pretty calm. He was just shaking when my dad was holding him during the conversation with the owners and when he first went into the car. After a little while, he was just sleeping or just laying on my mum's legs.

Saturday night/Sunday:
Oreo is not shy at all and loves playing with us. He sleeps with me on my bed. He already knows that that's his bed because at night, when I put him on my bed, he instantly finds a good spot to sleep. Which is usually on my pillow or near it. And if I leave my room to get something that I forgot to bring in, while he's still on my bed, he gets so sad even cries when I leave for too long. Which isn't actually that long, maybe just like a minute or so. Oreo is honestly such a cutie pie! He is really playful (just like the previous owner said) and gets along well with Hazel.
