A Cheerful Holiday Giveaway!

Hello to you friends! Thank you so much for stopping by the blog today! I'd like to introduce you to Melissa of Bay Candle Company by Sweet Melissa's Fragrance Factory!



Melissa contacted me a short while ago thanks to our mutual friend, Jennifer Warthan, of Warthan Farms Photography, and we chatted about ourselves, our businesses, and our plans. From our first conversation I could immediately tell how passionate and dedicated she was to her business and her family. Bay Candle Company by Sweet Melissa's Fragrance Factory produces high quality, clean burning soy candles that you will adore. And, who doesn't love candles!?!?

To quote her website: "We are America's sweetest scented candle brand, and our high quality soy candles and unique designs are popular on the East Coast!  We are humbled and grateful by the sweet comments and support we have received since unveiling our first collection to the market in 2013.

Our Signature Collection candles boast two-toned soy wax; multiple sweet, aromatic fragrances, and our two-wick system for a clean, efficient, and beautiful burn."



Melissa's candles smell delightful and many who smell them say they bring to mind wonderful experiences in their lives. You can find Bay Candle Company Candles in 9 retail locations in Virginia and North Carolina. Her candles are also available in her online store. I'd like to invite you to visit her blog to read about the very latest with Melissa and her lovely candles. More importantly, I encourage you to read her personal story about how her logo was chosen. It brought tears to my eyes!

When you read her website you feel like you know her and her lovely family! She is dedicated to providing the very best customer service, which is our ultimate goal at The Daily Scrub as well. So, when Melissa asked me to partner with her for a holiday giveaway it was an easy 'yes.' What a honor to partner with another local businesswoman with such a fine product.



We are excited to offer one lucky fan of The Daily Scrub and Bay Candle Co. one of Bay Candle's beautiful Classic Christmas candles from their Celebration Collection and a package of our wonderful Holiday Cheer Soaps (2 soaps)! What a great way to kick off the holiday season!
To enter simply visit both The Daily Scrub and Bay Candle Co. on Facebook (click on the name links) and 'Like' both pages. Comment on one of the giveaway posts, either here or on Melissa's blog telling us what you love best about the holidays!
We'll choose a random fan on Tuesday, November 12th! For extra entries, please share our giveaway post and let us know that you did so!

If you just can't wait for our giveaway to end and would like to order any of Bay Candle Co.'s gorgeous candles or our soaps, please visit our stores here and here.
Candles and handmade artisan soaps make wonderful holiday gifts!

Soapmaking is art

Tropical Waters August 2012 (7)

I love soapmaking because it combines making something useful with art.

Tropical Waters August 2012

Every single batch comes out differently! It's so exciting to pop the soap out of the mold and start cutting just to see what it will look like!

Tropical Waters August 2012 (1)

There's no exact science and that's what I love about it. It's like each batch is an original piece of art.

Tropical Waters August 2012 (3)

This batch of tropical waters has turned out differently three times now, and each time it was beautiful!

Soapmaking is a form of art. It allows me to let my creative juices flow, while producing a functional product!!

Have a lovely weekend!
