Whew.
#calmdown
There is a whole lot of something going on with that title.
I’m so excited that I don’t even know where to begin.
It reminds of the first time I walked into IKEA and got my first IKEA shopping cart with the odd wheels that are super hard to push wandered the giant aisles and stared at the overwhelming rows and rows of pillows and rugs and plates and mugs and chargers and place mats and I had to press the pause button….
….because I didn’t know where to start.
Just like today.
So let me go all Julie Andrews and start at the very beginning.
I’ve heard it’s a very good place to start.
This is where I blog.
This is where I write.
I know I usually show you this area with pumpkins or flowers or a glass cloche, but truthfully, most of the time it looks exactly like this.
And it’s important to understand that I can’t write the blog without three things.
1. A computer
2. A sleeping dog
3. A candle
I think the candle is the secret.
I’m kind of a candle snob. I choose my candles like I choose my red lipstick….
…..very carefully.
And this is my new favorite friend.
I wish you could smell it. It’s burning right now as I’m writing this to you and I’ll try to describe the scent. It smells like fall with a hint of Christmas with a hint of the country with a hint of falling leaves topped off with the smell of evergreen.
And it’s a big candle at 24 oz.
And it’s white so it goes with everything.
And it comes in the cutest jar with a beautiful hand-sketched label.
And my friend Laura created this candle and two other yummy scents like lavender evergreen and lemon verbena.
I just loaded them into the shop along with some new Christmas items.
Like these birch bark trees.
And the set of bowls with sayings.
And two more sizes of the birch bark wreaths.
And one that’s 13″ and so cute it will make you smile.
And this jute garland with wood slices.
And these numbered wood slices that would make the perfect 12 days of Christmas display.
And then it gets even better (is that even possible…why yes it is)
Because we are giving away one birch bark wreath, two birch bark trees and a candle of your choice to one lucky winner.
I know….RIGHT?
All you have to do is use the Rafflecopter to enter below and leave me a comment telling me your favorite candle scent and I’ll choose a winner by random selection next week.
Happy day friend!
And here’s some discounts from some of my other friend’s shops:

My favorite scent is cinnamon.
My favorite scent would have a hint of evergreen in the candle. I love that crisp winter smell. I love the look of the candles. So simply stated.
The Lemon Verbena is one of my all time favorites. I love the fresh, outdoors feel. The wooden items are adorable and would be a perfect addition to my new house. Fingers crossed and thanks for the opportunity!
I'm a giant fan of Lemon Verbena, but anything with Lavender is, well, just yummy!

Sage Evergreen sounds like it would be completely lovely!
Lemon verbena for sure! Brightens the winter doldrums with vivid memories of long, lazy summer days. Thank you.
I love white candles because they go with everything too!!! Right now my favorite is cinnamon bun, because it smells almost like Christmas, but not quite.
I like any candle with pumpkin and/or cinnamon. Great giveaway!!
Wow! I have been coveting the wreath since the first time I saw it! just fished burning my favorite candle a couple of weeks ago and have been searching for my next favorite - you may have just solved my quest. Here's hoping....
The fall/Christmas scented candles are my favorites. Love that birch bark wreath too!

Sage evergreen sounds wonderful.
Anything with pine is wonderful this time of year!
LOVE any candle scent!!!

My fav time of year to burn a candle is in the fall. Anything pumpkin,apple and cinnamon! Thank you for the chance to win :)
Lemon verbena is my absolute FaVoRite!
You made the Sage Evergreen sound so yummy - I'm popping over to buy RIGHT NOW. And why, or why are you not writing in that AD OR ABLE gatehouse???? Although your little 'spot' is just lovely, too.
Sage evergreen would be my favorite scent.
My favorite scent is anything that smells like a "real" Christmas tree!
Love an evergreen scent at this time of the year. I like to change the scents with the seasons.
I love anything spicy, it just cleans the air.
The lavender evergreen smells great, I'm sure!
How do you pick a favorite? I love florals in the warm weather-and since I live in Houston, that's most of the year :) I do like to have a Christmas candle to help make it feel more Christmassy. But truthfully, I never met many candles that I didn't like :) What a nice giveaway!
Love evergreen/pine scented! Thanks for the giveaway!
Lemon Verbena would be nice!
I love anything citrus based- makes the house smell so clean and fresh and sunshiney- is that a word? Thanks for the opportunity!
I love spicy candle scents. My current favorite is pumpkin.
I Love pumpkin right now but would enjoy trying your favorite! Thank you.
Ok, my sista from anotha motha!! I pick sage evergreen, same as you!!
Cinnamon has my heart!
I love the cinnamon.
Wow, I love all that stuff. What a great giveaway! I think the sage and evergreen candle sounds scrumptious but I also think I would like the lavender evergreen for the bedroom or bath. I'm pretty stressed right now with trying to sell our house and other things that I find I am needing something to help me relax. Perhaps that candle would be the key to being able to do that. Of course I would not snub my nose at any of those nice goodies. LOL
Favorite candle is lavender vanilla, lime verbena smells wonderful too and wakes you up!
It's so hard to pick just one scent. In the spring and summer I love lilac and fruity/island/coconut scents. In the winter I like the warm spicy scents like cinnamon, baked apple pie and pumpkin.
I like lemon or vanilla, something that smells like I am baking . . . when I'm not.
omiholycow...favorite candle scent? i could not choose A favorite candle scent because it depends entirely on the season. i wouldn't think of burning something deliciously sagey and evergreenish in the summer, or something spicey and pumpkiny in the spring...but i would certainly love to have my house fill with lemon verbena or lavender in the summer, or tuberose in the spring. it just depend on the season and the weather....i'm kinda crazy that way. bless my heart.
Clean/spa scents & outdoor/woodsy scents are my favs. Thanks for the give-away goodies!
My favorite is sage evergreen. :)
Fall and Christmas scents are my favorite. The sage evergreen sounds perfect!
Love your blog. It's the first one I read each day and it always makes me smile. Bless you and yours this Thanksgiving season. I love frosted cranberry as a holiday candle scent.
I really loved your pics with this post...I would love to win a vanilla candle. Thanks! Faith
In the Fall/Winter I love the cinnamon smell. Love, love, love the birch bark wreath.
Winter-berry (a delicious touch of cinnamon and berries)
The sage evergreen sounds wonderful. I usually go with eucalyptus mint.

I'm picking the Sage Evergreen. If you like it, how can I go wrong. ;)
Sage evergreen sounds great! Love the wreath and trees too!!
I like to change fragrances in the living areas with the seasons. Right now I'm enjoying Claire Burke Original. On December first I'll switch to a Christmas tree fragrance. Mrs. Meyers Lavender is always in my bed and bathrooms.
Hi Karianne, what lovely shop items. Cinnamon just smells like the holiday season to me. You're getting me into the holiday spirit and I'm not ready. I better get busy. Having said that, I must add that I'm most impressed with your writing space which is so neat, organized and clutter-free. I'm not surprised but I'm only comparing it to my own writing space-lol. Have a wonderful day.
Would be thrilled to win that wreath!!! Swooning! My favorite smells are anything pumpkin or Christmassy lol! Fingers crossed!
Citrus scents or lavender....yum
I love lemon verbena everything!

I normally go with lavender.
Hmmm....any scent that makes me think of holiday cooking..... ;) Thanks for this giveaway!
I'd like to try the sage evergreen, though my usual favorite candle flavored involve vanilla, marshmallow, and sandalwood...mix them up and call it what you will. ❤️ you!
As I sit here reading this I can't smell a thing!! I just had some sinus surgery and fixed a deviated septum!!! Not fun at all.. But, I do love scented candles and hopefully will be smelling again soon:( Also, I love your blog.
Well, I am a candle snob as well as a coffee snob and up until ordering a special candle from Laura, my favorite scent is 24K Tyler Candle Co. I love that scent. I'll sit there and just keep sniffing the candle -- without it being lit. How can anything with the name 24K be anything but gen-u-ine!! They are based in Texas. Well, excuse me but I have to put in a candle order. Thank you my dear friend.
I love simple vanilla candle or spicy cinnamon candles. The sage evergreen sounds wonderful too!
This time of year, it has got to be apple pie.
oooh! Nice goodies ! and a sweet giveaway, thank you Kari Anne. I think Sage Evergreen would be my fave.
Pumpkin, or coffee or vanilla, I really cant decide, I love having candles burning. My husband thinking I am going to burn the house down. I would really love to smell the Sage Evergreen.
Yes, anything that smells like seasons works for me....like the one on your desk! Love that it is white and in a cute lil jar, too! OMG!
I love apple or cinnamon scented candles.
OMG!! This is such a great give away and hope I Win! Heehee I love lemon Verbena...I burn this in the kitchen when I am cooking! Yum! But I would like to try the sage evergreen too! Pick me ! Pick me!! Have a great day! :)
Cinnamon for sure during the Holidays!!
Lemon verbena is my favorite candle.
All of her scents sound fantastic, but I admit I am partial to anything Lemon Verbena. It's my favorite scent for my Mrs Meyers cleaning products as well, and it's so "clean" and good for any season of the year. But anything remotely Christmas tree scented is a seasonal favorite in this house.
Well, I must order the Sage-Evergreen candle right now! That just sounds wonderful. I would also love the Rosemary scented candle that I saw pictured on the website, but it doesn't seem to be available. Does Laura have plans to restock that one? I can't pass by a rosemary bush without brushing my hands against it. Love that scent!!
Sage Evergreen sounds yummy! Girl...in your spare time (! I know) you need to write a book. Your writing style is so funny,, so real...I LOVE reading your posts. Have a beautiful fall day!
A local soy candle is burning right now with a great fall scent! Can't wait to try yours! Candles always welcome the season!!!
My favorite scent at the moment is Amaretto Cream Muffin. These other scents sound wonderful and the wreath is stunning. Thanks for a chance to win!
the candle that is lavender evergreen sounds delightful!!!
I think I would love to try the sage evergreen! It sounds yummy!!!
I'm burning a soy candle my sister gave me and I love its Olive Verbena scent. Thanks for the giveaway opportunity!!
Sage evergreen sounds good to me
My favorite candle scent changes with the seasons. In spring and summer it is something fresh like citrus, in fall it is a warm spicey scent and then balsam fir for winter. Of course any food scents like gingerbread and strawberry or apple are great anytime.
I love both cinnamon and pine. All of your scents sound great.
Would select the lemon verbena for anytime, and the sage evergreen for the holidays.
My fave scent of the day is Hazelnut!!! It could change before lunch tho. :-D
I just tried to order the Sage Evergreen candle, but the website won't accept the discount code "SUNSHINE" : (
I'm having the same problem :(
I love it all :)
During the holidays I love a peppermint smell to freshen everything
My favorite is clean, light scents - the lemon verbena sounds wonderful.
I'm guessing I'd like them all!! But I think I'd choose the lavender evergreen..it sounds interesting;)
Mistletoe.....it smells of a fresh cut Christmas tree with a hint of sweetness. I've burned this candle at Christmas time for several years now and it's yummy!
My favorite candle scents change throughout the year...right now I have a Creme Brûlée that is to die for
Sage Evergreen!
Well this is perfect timing. I just purchased a candle from Home Goods. It had been burning all day, when my husband came home I asked if if he thought the candle had a nice fragrance, not too strong? He said "I cant smell a thing." Exactly my point. I have a mind to return it ! I would choose the lemon verbena , food fragrance is always welcomed. Thanks for the opportunity , you sassy red lipstick wearing gal!
I love any candle that smells like " Merry Christmas"! Love those birch bark trees too!!
Spicy pumpkin scents are my favorite!
So I'm totally about to purchase my first candle *exciting*! Is the code SUNSHINE still active? It doesn't seem to be working.
My favorite scent is lemon pound cake. So yummy. In the fall, during the holidays I love a Christmas tree/fireplace/homey smell....I make my own candles but would love to try one of your friends!!! I always have a candle burning year round. I love a good smell when you walk in my house! xoxo, Linda
Sage evergreen is my selection-I think it would be the perfect scent for fall and winter.
Until this very moment I couldn't have said I had a favourite candle scent but now I am pretty sure it would be sage evergreen! It sounds amazing!
I found a new scent it's a Christmas citrus blend! Nice for now as its not to heavy with evergreen.
I think I would choose the Sage Evergreen from the way you are describing it. But ....Katie bar the door....that wreath? Oh my oh my. Love it.
I'm partial to anything that smells like apples - apples and cinnamon - apples and nutmeg - apples, apples, apples!
Love the smell of Christmas, evergreen.
Sage Evergreen sounds fabulous!!
Anything Lavendar!! Can't wait to do a little shopping!
At this time of the year, anything with cinnamon is wonderful. As Christmas approaches, I love the scent of evergreen.

I would love the Sage Evergreen Candle!! Thank you so much for a wonderful giveaway, I love The Painted Fox!!!
I just started burning a coconut lemon and it is wonderful. Kind of hard to pick a favorite.

Maple Grove would be heavenly! Although it might make me hungry for some pancakes :)
Thank you for the joy i receive every morning I open your blog! I adore apple/cinnamon, and you too!
I think it depends on what time of year it is for me. Right now, it would be apple pie or spice....after Thanksgiving and through winter, it would be evergreen, pine tree! Thanks for the opportunity! ;)
lavender evergreen sounds wonderful! ( I am a candle snob too!) I tried to submit in the drawing comment but it doesn't seem to work! Thank you for your inspiring stories!

I love the scent of sage. Citrus and sage by Yankee Candles is my all time favorite, however, I'd be open to your candles! Ha!
Something spicy, it's fall y'all! Love your website!

Anything Fall is in my wheelhouse!! Pumpkin, cider, cinnamon - love them all!! And I adore birchbark anything!! Hello Lovie!!! Great Giveaway!!!
The lavender evergreen would definitely go in my cottage home. I do like earthy smells ... Thanks for this wonderful opportunity. I really have been eyeing the birch bark anything - wreath especially. Judy C
Sage Evergreen would be my favorite, hands down. I'd give it a good home!
My favorite scents for candles are anything with herbs! Lemon verbena, basil, or lavender! I love seeing where you blog! Thanks for sharing!
I can no longer find a candle with my favorite scent. I don't know what the name of it was, but it was one I used every Christmas MANY years ago. I keep looking for it every year, but so far, no luck. So, other than that one, my favorite is Mandarin Mint. Speaking of 'favorites," your blog is one of my three favorites that I never miss. Love your ideas, your way with words and, well, just the "you" that shines throughout your writing.
My favorite candle scent is evergreen - I have not tried these candles but Christmas just doesn't feel right without a Balsam Fir scented candle. Luckily, I have a credit to use and the Evergreen Sage is going in my basket!
You had me at smells like fall with a little bit of Christmas. P.S. I tried to enter Sunshine as a discount code but the reply was it was not found as an accepted code. Any help just in case I don't win?
I especially love the wreath!! I too am a candle snob and have one constantly burning in my house!
Love candles. Favorites are anything spicy and vanilla based. Thanks for such a great giveaway
Love the shop! I love any fall scented candle!
Hi! I'm new to your blog, absolutely love it! My favorite candles are spicy in winter and floral in summer, but honestly I love everything in between too! Thank you!
cranberry orange spice for the winter and citrus for the summer
I love cream colored unscented candles the best.
I just picked up vanilla and fig from anthropologie, smells wonderful! but i also like coffee scents too!
That candle sounds to smell amazing. I also love sweet orange smells.
I love candles with natural scents like lavender. The sage evergreen sounds so yummy!
I have a seaside scented candle that I just LOVE! It's my fave, but lavender is a super close second.
Sage Evergreen sounds wonderful to me!
Ooooh Lemon Verbena!!! It would make my house smell so fresh and clean; even if it wasn't and there were dog fur dust bunnies hiding in every corner! :)
Lemon Verbena sounds heavenly. Thanks for the chance to win.
Lavendar Evergreen..... Ahhh, I can just smell the heavenly scent right through the screen! Beautiful jar, simply elegant.
I am particular about my scents (what a snob!) I like lemon scents in the summer, pumpkin or apple scents in fall, and pine scents in winter and lily of the valley scents in spring:) I sure would love to try Sage Evergreen right now though!!!
My favorite candle is the Mahogany Teakwood scent from Bath & Body Works.. To me it smells like "sexy man".... And what lady doesn't like THAT scent.. ;)
Awesome! Sage Evergreen sounds fantastic!
I think I would love the sage evergreen scent. I absolutely love the jars the candles are in!!
Wow, what a lovely give away package. Anything birch is just amazing! My favorite candle scent is Sage Evergreen.
My favorite candle is mulled cider by Tyler. Burns clean and you can actually smell it!
My fave scent is red currant. Its crisp and tart and sweet at the same time... but in the fall, I can't get enough vanilla-cinnamon. Probably because I never bake, and it makes it smell like I'm being Betty Crocker.
I look forward to your blog . The sage evergreen would be wonderful for the holidays.
Pumpkin pie
I tend to stick with vanilla or cookie or cake candle scents. Sometimes the floral ones are too smelly for me but I'm a weirdo so what do I know. The sage evergreen does sound interesting. I love your description.
Verbena fragrance is amazing!
Pumpkin Spice... my second favorite is Hot Chocolate!!!!
I can't think of a better aroma than the one you described! I would love to try that and I love it's white.
Sage evergreen !
I LOVE the wreath! Perfect for my Christmas decor.
Macintosh apple is hands-down my favorite scent, but I think the Sage Evergreen sounds amazing! Thank you for the opportunity! :)
That Sage Evergreen sounds heavenly!
I can't wait to try the lemon verbena scent!
Love your set up! My favorite candle scent for 75% of the year is mango coconut milk. I'm still searching for a favorite late fall/holiday candle. Maybe this one is it :)

Rosemary
I love any cinnamon candle scent!
Oh, how fun! My favorite candle scent depends on the season. Cinnamon at Christmas, pumpkin spice in the fall. Lemon verbena in the summer.... I think the sage evergreen sounds like a great smell. Eucalyptus is another favorite of mine. Decisions, decisions! I love, love, love that birch bark wreath! What a great giveaway! I am actually feeling pretty lucky today!

My favorite candle would have to be anything with pumpkin spice, it reminds me of Thanksgiving and enjoying time spent with my family.
Wow, what wonderful things! I would love the Lemon Verbena Candle! Thanks so very much for your ideas and inspiration! Kathy Adams
I am ridiculous with candles- my husband does not understand why I have 12 currently for our 1600sq ft home. It's a bad obsession....although a very nice smelling obsession! I love all things lavender...and Christmas. So lavender evergreen would get my vote!
I love citrusy smells and things like sage and lavendar. And I love, love candles. Love wreaths. Geez, this giveaway is for me.
My favorite candle scent is Biscotti (WW candles). Fantastic giveaway! Thank you for the opportunity to possibly win! :)
KariAnne! You've done it again! First of all that wreath and armoire!!!!!! I am slowly decorating in Scandinavian Old Country, so all of this would be fantastic (including the armoire *hint hint*) and I love the navy/white towel you show under the disk garland!!!!!! As for scents for a candle? I fell in love with the evergreen scent ever since I walked into a fun/funky store on Clark Street in Chicago in the middle of Andersonville that had the most incredible plaid upholstered chair in it's window so of course I just had to go inside!!!! Well when that door opened, I smelled the most wonderful scent of evergreen all around me and found out it was candles they had burning throughout this amazing store....I ended up buying 3 large candles to take home. So, I'd have to say bring on the evergreen! And pairing it with lavender????!!!! Yup I'm in! I'm headed over to your shop right now to take a peek at what you have now :) Have a wonderful day my dear! Blessings! Karen
I'd love to smell the Sage Evergreen candle!! Can't wait to go by one for myself!!!
Hands down, it's Volcano by Capri Blue. These hand-poured candles are in stunning cobalt blue glass jars. Last year, they added a mercury glass jar and a deep gorgeous Christmas red jar to their collection. I buy lots of them every October (enough for gifts and for me) and recently I purchased their new scent, Fir & Firewood which smells like the candle you described. The green glass is a stunning color and the lid is etched with pinecones and branches. Also, I just purchased the birch wreath and didn't realize there was going to be a bigger size (which I would have ordered instead)!! Glad you are having a sale today~
I love lemon verbena!
Your description of the Sage Evergreen makes me want that one! Since you have such a huge following, I'm pretty sure I won't be the one to win, so I will make a trip to your shop to buy one for myself; also that gorgeous birch bark wreath! Love, love, love it!
Sage Evergreen! Cinnamon too :)
My favorite sent is anything that is NOT vanilla. I love clean cotton or anything that is fresh scented.
My favorite candle scent is anything with cinnamon in the fall/winter and anything with vanilla in the spring/summer. But I'd love to try that sage/evergreen candle. I never thought of burning a candle while I'm blogging, but I'll give it a try. I have perfected the sleeping dog at my feet element (I have four dogs) and now have to add one cat sitting on my keyboard/interfering with anything I'm currently trying to do and further interruptions for cat/human head bonking (a cat thing that I was not aware of until now).
I am such a candle snob also. Mostly because hubby has reactions to most scents, so to keep him happy I compromise. Love those wreaths!!! I would leave it out all winter because it just speaks winter to me. Thank you for all of the great inspiration and the giveaway!!!
My favorite is always pumpkin this time of year! Ask me in the spring and I'll have a different fav!
I absolutely love Lemon Verbena...and all the other pretty little nuggets in your shop!
Lemon Verbena...my favorite scent of all!
I LOVE lavender anything BUT it has to be good lavender, real lavender. The lavender evergreen sounds wonderful and I would love a chance to try it! I love your website and appreciate the opportunity to win your gift!
Sage evergreen sounds wonderful. I'm all for smells saying "Christmas is coming"! And I think a cuppa coffee would look perfect on your desk!! Enjoy the season!!
My favorite scent this time of year is Pumpkin Spice! Yummy! The Sage Evergreen sounds truly wonderful. On a separate note, I visited Kentucky for the first time last July. What a treat! Loved the miles of white fences along those old highways. As always, thank you, Kari Anne, for the inspirational posts. :) Norma Jean Oregon
Lemon verbena!
I love lemon verbena or really lemon anything. That wreath is fantastic!
The Sage Evergreen sounds good to me.
I love many scents! However, my absolute favorite is Lemon Verbena!! It smells so clean and fresh!! Love starting at the beginning! New beginnings are the best! I also am so happy for you that you have such exciting new beginnings! Thank you for the giveaway!
I'm sure I would love the Sage Evergreen candle!
I love Sage Evergreen!
this time of year I love the Christmas scents--cinnamon, clove, evergreen. The scent that just makes you want to curl up by the fire.
I love anything that smells like a Christmas tree!
i know this is weird but i like anything thats kinda manly, woodsy, earthy smells, like patchouli, i love that
I love anything with lavender, it is so calming and those birch trees are so darn cute! Thank you for having a give-a-way :)
Hi Kari Anne-- My favorite scent is the lemon verbena. It just smells so clean!
None of my candles have scent but if they did I would like the house to smell like vanilla. Sounds delicious! (I like your idea of lighting a candle when blogging. Very zen like. I'm going to try it next to my cuppa joe)
I love everything lavender so the lavender evergreen would be my choice and I absolutely adore the birch bark trees and wreath!!
Have a cold and can't smell anything! It would be a wonderful surprise for you to choose!
Lemon Verbena. My husband is really picky when it comes to candle scents and I think he would like this one.
I love candles...they make everything cozy. My favorite scents are usually florals or citrus. I like SO many. :)
I don't work very well without a sleeping dog nearby either. So sweet! The candles I usually like are some kind of kitchen scent that isn't too obvious. However, the other day at TJ Maxx I came across one called Popcorn Garland. It smelled so yummy and like fresh popped corn. Had to have it. I will not be surprised when I find myself craving popcorn every day.
I would love the sage evergreen. Love the wreath too.
My favorite scents are cinnamon, vanilla, and lavender!
Sage Evergreen~ no question. I hunt for the perfect evergreen scent each year, because we use my husband's grandparents artificial tree~ for sentimental reasons, but I miss that real tree aroma! Thank you!
I think the lavender evergreen candle must be dreamy.
I love the fireplace going and candles burning. So cozy. My favorite candle scents are those inspired by nature, holidays or seasons. Fall and Christmas scents are my favorite.
I love the Sage Evergreen scent. Anything with sage is always a great one for me and Evergreen is so good at Christmas. I love candles!
I love all the candles that smell like baking or coffee treats or Christmas!!
sage evergreen sounds perfect!
Lavender evergreen sound pretty good to me!
What an exciting give-away!!! My favorite scents would be either the Rosemary or the Lavender Evergreen. Happy Day! Lanita
I was given a chocolate scented candle once and it was EVERYTHING .
A "candle snob" love it! Totally stealing that line Kari Anne! I love lemon verbena too!
I love anything with a fresh scent - citrus, herbs, etc. I have a tangerine clove candle that is amazing.
I love lavender!
Sage evergreen sounds fall fabulous!
Lemon sounds nice. I love lavender. Not a huge fan of vanilla. My husband loves evergreen. The sage evergreen sounds nice!
The lavender evergreen sounds like heaven! Just love those birch bark wreaths, may have to pop over and get one!
I like foodie smelling candles, like vanilla, cinnamon,or sugar cookies.
I'm a purist==vanilla is my favorite.
ANYTHING with evergreen count me in! I'm going to order the sage evergreen one right now.
I love the smell of hazelnut coffee
My favorite candle scent is pine.
Sage evergreen sounds wonderful!
Hi Karianne. My favorite candle scent is anything that smells like Christmas! Love cinnamon or evergreen but after seeing your post I would love to smell Sage Evergreen! Thanks for the chance.
Sage-Evergreen sounds great to me! I love both of those fragrances.
My favorite candle scent is sweet vanilla and cinnamon.
I love citrus and sage.........but hazelnut is great also!
What a fabulous giveaway! I would love to try the lavender evergreen or the sage evergreen.
Love that gorgeous wreath and those trees! Need them!!
Cinnamon Bun of course!!
I share your obsession with candles! Your sage evergreen sounds wonderful. The favorite one currently in my possession is a pumpkin pie spice. Thanks for sharing the giveaway!!
My fav candle scent is Thai Pear. It is hard to find and there is absolutely none like it. However, yours sound heavenly and I'm going to your store to order one right now! Thanks for the give away.
I love pumpkin spice scented candles and keep them burning all year round. Sage evergreen sounds super good, I might have to broaden my horizons. :)
Macintosh!
I have a candle called Hot Apple Cider that I love. The Sage Evergreen sounds great. Thanks for the chance!
I like candles with a red currant ingredient (whatever that is!) Like something spicy, not sweet! Got to go candle shopping now!
I love candles that smell like warm apple pie, with a hint of cinnamon!
My current favorite is "Fire" from Reserve candle company. At Christmas I like Peppermint from Bath and Body Works. Often, I use plain old Vanilla from Pier One.
My husband has this crazy sensitive sense of smell, so we are REALLY limited on what we can have in the house. Right now I have a sage-lime scent, the sage evergreen sounds perfect for the holidays!!
Oh the sage evergreen sounds fabulous! I love that Christmasy smell. Makes the house feel like Christmas morning,or a walk through the woods on a crisp day. What beautiful items!
Love a pumpkin cinnamon smell! Love the wreath and those cool trees too of birch bark.
i like anything that smells a bit like greens with a hint of vanilla. clean and crisp.
I just registered & the sage evergreen candle sounds heavenly! Thanks for the opportunity to win!
I'm not crazy about food- or flower-scented candles, but I love anything fresh and outdoorsy, like cedar or pine tree.
My favorite scent changes with the season... right now my favorite is pumpkin spice
Oh, the lemon verbena is my personal scent! I actually just ordered lemon and verbena oil to concoct my personal perfume! You go girl! You are doing great things!
My favorite scent changes with tha seasons. In the summer I like anything beachy or tropical. In the fall I like spicy scents. In the winter I like warm cozy scents. Last but not least I like fresh clean scents in the spring.
My favorite scent changes with the seasons. Right now I am enjoying more of the spicy scents.
My favorite would be the lemon verbena. Anything lemon wins with me.
Vanilla and Christmas scented candles are always so nice! I love your sleeping doggie, I have three at my feet as I type. Love them so! Thanks again, Kari Anne for your sweet inspiration and your heart warming stories.
sage evergren love the smell of outdoors I enjoy reading your posts i get laughs and ideas thanks!!
Lavender Evergreen sounds fantastic!
I love candles that smell like the sea in summer, spicy scents in fall, evergreen for Christmas & winter and lemon for spring!
The sage evergreen sounds yummy! I'd love to have that scent wafting through my space!
I love all good candles also, you can't just buy the cheap ones. But I think my favorite is Ginger Lime. Thank you for the opportunity to win such fabulous things.
I love Sage Evergreen candle scent, because I live in Texas, the heat is not very conducive to keeping evergreen fresh but the candle can give the lovely scent without the dropping dried pines!
I too am a candle snob. There are those candles that smell so good, and then after you light them the scent weakens. Sage evergreen sounds like a good choice, especially if its the scent that makes you write so awesome. I already have the small birch wreath and ordered another as a gift. So I am short on luck, but will hop over and order a candle. Thanks for the chance to win.
The sage evergreen sounds lovely.
volcano! :)
I love the smell of sandlewood candles. Of the three your friend has made it would have to be the sage evergreen.
Lavender is my favorite scent. The birch bark wreaths have so much texture and I love the greyed color of the bark.
I would have to say "Sage Evergreen" for my twin daughter, Sage Estella. How fun if she could have a candle with her name on it! -Diedre Roberts Folsom CA (made famous by Johnny Cash)
I'm a seasonal candle kind of person, right now it's a pumpkin spice candle, soon to be replaced by bayberry or evergreen....
I love the scent of lilacs but for the Christmas season, evergreen is a favorite.
Right now I am really enjoying Walmart's Mainstays mulled cider candle. I LOVE candles!
Sage Evergreen! Don't we all need a little smell of peace?! Love your blog, too!
I do love the evergreen smell of Christmas or the spicy scent of clove and oranges!
Love you, love your blog and love this giveaway! My favorite candle scent is Japanese Quince!
I love anything that has an evergreen scent.....reminds me of the holidays and family time.
Love these..a bit rustic country lodge or lake cabin. I love the scents of vanilla, cinnamon, and lemon..orange and coconut..yum..I just realized all baking scents. Thanks

I like sugar cookie scents but I also like sandalwood. Depends on my mood!
Any candle that has cinnamon in it.
I love the spicy fall scents--from apple to pumpkin, cinnamon, clove.....
I was going to say something vanilla, but then I saw someone else's cinnamon and then the sugar cookie, so I guess basically I like food scents. :)
I loved a candle by the name of Cashmere and they discontinued that scent! I think I would love the lavender candle in this line as I am currently into lavender bath products. Thank You
I am a sucker for a good candle! That sage evergreen sounds heavenly.
Lavender Always : )
Right now I am burning fall scents like autumn wreath. But sage evergreen sounds wonderful. And I really like that it is white. Thanks for the opportunity.
Love them all but Lemon Verbena sounds perfect! The wreaths are beautiful!
My favorite candle scent is cinnamon, reminds me of fresh baking. I really like the birch bark wreathe and birch bark trees, lovely addition to fall or winter decorating. To put the finishing touch would be a fragrant candle. Thank you so much for sharing such wonderful ideas.
Sage evergreen
I love anything citrus and scents that smell "clean".

Out of those choices, I would pick sage evergreen! I love fall and Christmas scents... But my favorite is daisy apricot mixed with sea salt drift wood... It's the closest to smelling like spring that I've found and I use it every match to get out of the winter blues!
Typically this time of the year I enjoy a candle with a hint of cinnamon....but the sage evergreen you introduced sounds wonderful!!! :)

I love apple cinnamon scents and balsam this time of year.
Capri Blue Volcano is what burns mostly year round in my house. Yummy!!
I have to choose??? I like lemon verbena and I love lavender...adding evergreen??? Brilliant!
Sageevergreen would be super. MOVING INTO OUR SAGE EVERGREEN.....can almost smell it now.
My favorite scent changes and would be the smell of the seasons. Right now it's pumpkin and spices, next month evergreen and anything that reminds me of Christmas.
Lemon verbena is such a wonderful uplifting smell that would definitely brighten anyone's day!
My favorite candles are some form of evergreen, but I seem to be drawn most to white fur candles, or ones with a citrus base
Awesome post---I have to check out the link for Laura, great stuff! :) You need a more comfy chair at your desk. Just saying. My fave scent would be Lemon Verbena. Thanks so much for the giveaway!! Jane x
I love Vetiver and Cardomom.

I'm thinking lemon verbena sounds just about perfect.
I think the Sage Evergreen sounds wonderful! Fingers crossed!
I've always been a lover of all candles that fall into the "baked goods" category, especially fudge brownie!
Lemon verbena is my favourite but for fall I love anything with vanilla as well.
Evergreen! But I'm also loving a new eucalyptus lavender scent... so good!

My favorite candle scents are always food based! lol! vanilla cookies, pumpkin spice, etc. Tania
Sage Evergreen! Must smell heavenly.
My favorite scents would be a tie between Cinnamon and a Christmasy evergreen or pine.
I love cinnamon, especially this time of the year.
My current favorite candle is by Archipelago and the scent is Havana. It is a rich fragrance with hints of cigars and whiskey. I'm very excited about the possibility of introducing some fresh evergreen for the holidays. I hope I win!!
I love Pine in the winter and Lemon in the spring. I love your blog! Wish I had your creativity as I'm beginning my own farmhouse renovation. Cheers!
Oh my, it's so hard to choose. I always have a hard time when I'm shopping for candles because I almost always like them all! But I know I have to pick one so I'm going to have to go with… cinnamon. Because it smells like Autumn and Autumn is my favorite time of year.
I would love to try the evergreen sage. Thanks for the chance to win!
You are very popular today KariAnne! Thank you for the give away! I like the sound of the Sage Evergreen. I love the little trees!!! It's overcast, cold and windy here in Wisconsin. Missing my warmer New Mexico today! Have a great weekend with your family!!!!!!

Peppermint and clean linen are my favorite candle scents! Thank you for the opportunity to win!
I love citrus scents, they make the house smell so fresh and clean!
I love Christmas tree candles <3
I love burning candles at home. I can't explain it, it just gives my house such a cozy feeling. I switch back and forth on favorite scents but in the winter I always get drawn back to evergreen scents. It just seems right.
I think Sage evergreen would do it for me too! I'm a bit of a candle snob myself!
My favorite scent changes with the seasons, my mood... or the wind! I tend to break out the spice scents during this time of year. Lately I've been enjoying Butter Rum Spice, Orange Spice Cinnamon and Black Licorice Spice. As Winter sets in, I'll gravitate towards the Evergreen-Sparkley Snowman-Mistletoe-Cedar-Santa Claus-Snowflake-Fireside scents. Lavender is always a favorite, and Lemon Verbena, always a favorite! Heading for your awesome sale now ... later!
I love the smells of moss, woods and fern ;)
Anything vanilla or fruity, right now its apple spice.
All of the scents sound lovely! I think I would like the lavender evergreen.

I love candles! After a long day at work, I will often light a candle and the scent helps to "de-stress" me. I love spicy cinnamon candles, fall scented candles (pumpkin or apple), and often in the spring/summer I will change to a citrus scent. Your Lemon-Verbena sounds amazing!!
Wow, love your shop. I would love meyer lemon and rosemary but they all sound great!
I love citrus and cinnamon scents - warm, sharp and spicy. Although that evergreen sage sounds divine. Love your blog and the beautiful things you showcase.
