This week we were blessed with two beautiful sunny days and it made me very happy indeed. Whilst we have been lucky with a fairly mild winter, I am thrilled that we are now in the final month before spring. I like to appreciate all of the seasons, but I cannot pretend to like winter any longer…it is my least favourite and I cannot wait for spring!
These are my favourite things which have made me happy this week…
Spotting these dwarf Irises on my morning walk with Poppy
Choosing new paint colours for our decorating projects next week
When my friend Sadie recommended Kringle Candle Company to me as her new favourite brand of candles, I knew I had to try them out. I placed an order on line on Wednesday afternoon and it was delivered yesterday morning, less than 24 hours later! We tried the Fresh Lilac Pillar last night and I have a Peony Votive lit right now and they are both divine. Kringle candles are definitely my new favourites and I cannot wait to try even more of the lovely fragrances they have
This Limited Edition release of Clinique Happy In Bloom is lovely and making me crave spring even more
I love L’Occitane products and this Limited Edition Shea Honey Hand Cream is no exception. It has a sweet honey fragrance, fantastic moisturising properties and an adorable design.. Now I just need to snap up the rest of the collection before it is too late!
What has made you happy this week?
These are all so lovely….
so in an effort to follow along with some favorite products, here's some of mine:
1. First of all, I don't use any products that have chemicals or parabens, so one of my favorites is Weleda. Most of their products are made in Germany. My favorite hand cream is skinfood in the green tube. I have never, ever had a product that could heal my hands overnight and this is it. Truly amazing. With no humidity here, dry skin is a terrible problem. My middle daughter LOVES the L'occitane hand products. I have a tiny tube in lavender in my purse right now!! So, both favs!
2. Candles–in the process of looking for great candles, so I will check these out. I do NOT want lead wicks nor do I want paraffin as it creates toxic chemicals in the home air. So, I'll check these out—I'm excited to try!!
3. Chai TEA: I've just been in the mood for it like never before; must be the bitter cold streak we've had 2 weeks ago.
4. Parsley cleaner–my new crazy wonderful home cleaning product that works like a charm, has a delicious fresh fragrance, and NO chemicals.

Happy February!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
oh, I didn't do 5!!!!!
OK…
5. vintage silverware; I'm officially in love
ooh, pretty post!
Slipper Satin is gorgeous, have it in my shower room and love it.
So glad you are enjoying your Kringles! And yes, speedy delivery. They are posted very locally to me, so if mine don't turn up the next day I get a bit agitated!
I've just got back from town and have treated self to two tarts (watermelon being one – excited) and a huge Frosted Cake cande in jar. Love that one so much, especially on rainy/sleety/windy days like today.
That perfume has Morwenna written all over it! Perfect for you.
This post is so happy and cheery, you've made my day!

I, too, am getting tired of winter. Every season is beautiful, but winter always seems to drag on too long. I am so looking forward to spring. I love the photo of the dwarf irises! Such a treat to find those on your morning walk. I also love scented candles. I've never heard of Kringle candles. Will have to keep my eyes out for them! Have a wonderful weekend, sweetie! xo
Hello sweetheart! Love your favourite things…they all smile out from this post! I adore Dr Hauschka, and Ren…pricey but they last ages & are totally fab. Those candles look gorgeous, will definitely have a look at e website. Sending love…sunny & cold here, hope you are having a good week so far xx Rachel
