November Candle Picks

I am so stoked that it is finally November! In California that means it is finally fall!

(AKA cold weather). I have been dying to make a trip to bath and body works to buy some candles to make my room a little bit more festive!

Here are some of my favorites!

Marshmallow Fireside

This candle smells so sweet, just like a marshmallow! Its a great candle for every now

and then to make the room a little more cozy! Plus, how cute are the mason jars they are in?

Spiced Wreath

Okay so at first, I thought this candle was going to smell very much like cinnamon and Christmas, but when it started to burn, it had a touch of pumpkin in it! The cinnamon and pumpkin

compliment each other perfectly!

Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin

Here is another pumpkin-cinnamon scent that is a little more for Fall. It has more pumpkin than cinnamon so it creates a warmer smell!

Last but not least is the Pumpkin Cupcake candle.

I can't find it on the website, but at my local store, Bath and Body Works has a ton! I think this is the perfect pumpkin scent! It is sweet yet tolerable. It has the ideal amount of pumpkin without being too overbearing! It is definitely my favorite this fall!

My New Diffuser! | NOW Ultrasonic Bamboo Diffuser Review

Recently, my $15 essential oil diffuser broke, so I figured it was time I make an investment (kind of). I started searching online and was looking for something sophisticated, yet not too abstract. My last diffuser started to look a little dingy, so I wanted something that was higher quality. Many of the diffusers I found online had some type of bottle neck, or vase shape ---- both of which I did not want. I liked the cylinder style, so I found a few that I liked and read some reviews to help me make my decision. The one I ended up getting was the Now Foods Ultrasonic Bamboo Diffuser ! *This is a cold diffuser that maintains the essential oil properties through a cool mist, as opposed to a heat diffuser which will break down the goodness in the oils* The body has a bamboo finish, and has a small band on the top that displays a rainbow of colors if you put it on the light setting! I like this diffuser because it is pretty customizable. You can change your settings depen...

Hey guys! So here's an update on what has been going on my life during my hiatus! I won Miss Los Gatos USA and will be competing in the Miss California USA Pageant in January! With my win, I will have many appearances and charity events to attend so I will be very busy! I am going to focus a lot on my schoolwork, health and fitness as I prepare for the next few months before Miss CA. I am super excited and will be sure to keep my blog updated with things going on in my life and ways that I have found happiness through the simple grace of God. Make sure to keep checking out the page, I will talk to you soon! xoxo Danielle

The Beauty of Gardening

My favorite part of spring is all the new vegetation! I get so excited every time I see a tiny flower sprouting along the side of a trail. One of my favorite ways to celebrate this season is to get out and garden. I personally am always running around busy, but I made some time early this year to get out and garden. I took a gardening course at my college where we learned about native California plants, and that really sparked my interest. I planted a few natives around the garden and propagated some house plants for myself as a token! Here is some of the Rainbow Chard I planted: One of my favorite ways to get grounded is being in nature. When you're living amongst the plants it makes you feel more at home and serene, something you can't find in the streets of the city. Being in California is such a blessing because we have so many beautiful plants and recreational areas that celebrate the natural beauty of this state. If you want to get more involved with ...
