Bridgewater Candles - Review and Giveaway - UPDATED

With Labor Day weekend being this weekend...

This contest has been extended until 9/7.

I have not had candles in the house because of Broxton , so when I saw that Bridgewater Candles were candles with a "clean burn" I thought that I would like to try them.

One of the things that originally drew me to the candle was the tagline, "Snapshots of Life."

Taken from their website:

God created us with a sense of smell so closely associated with our memories that scents remind us of people, places, and events. Bridgewater fragrances are forever linked to special moments and memories. We're ready to create thousands more...to capture Snapshots of Life. We look forward to celebrating new seasons and successes with you.

Now doesn't that make you want to start making a few wonderful memories with such a nice candle?

I was lucky enough to be able to review the Cookie Jar and the Frosted Berry.

Ha! Let me tell you a little thing about this "cookie jar" candle...

They are not joking when they say Cookie Jar! I lit the candle and before you knew it, the whole house smelled just like I had been baking cookies all day!
Now, we all know that would never happen... But, for just a split second, I wondered if I had put some in the oven! (No, not me making them... but some already made cookie dough or something, lets be real here!)
Then, I worried if I should try and get the smell out before Marc got home! I did not want him coming in thinking that I had made cookies... No need to tease his stomach like that!
But seriously, the house smelled wonderful!!!!
I like how I burnt the candle for a good amount of time and it really does not look like I have burned it too long. To me, this lets me know that this is a candle that is going to live up to its burn time. (140 - 160 hours!)

We are saving the Frosted Berry for when it starts to get colder out...

I know that this scent will smell so nice after being outside in the cool air!

Bridgewater Candles has even launched a campaign that I think is awesome!
It is the "Light a Candle, Feed a Child" campaign.

For every candle that they sell, they donate a portion of their proceeds to feed an orphan for a day!
If you are going to purchase a candle, wouldn't it mean more... to you (or the recipient of the candle) if you helped to feed an orphan as well?

It really is a gift that keeps on giving!

On each candle is a cute little sticker with a hand-print that has the campaign phrase on it...


I am so excited to share this wonderful company with you!
Bridgewater Candles has generously offered to host a giveaway of their Frosted Berry as well as the Cookie Jar!

How awesome is that?
