well, now that I am a officially 'lady of leisure' AKA 'stay at home mum' i am beginning to realise a lot about myself:
1- i need mental stimulation- there is only so much baby talk one can do
(and no, Dr Phil doesn't quite cut it these days)
2- losing weight is easy if you have the drive
(i.e- ever want to feel good enough about yourself to have sex again in this lifetime)
3- i am a compulsive internet shopper
(*insert look of shame here)
so while giving into my guilty pleasure i began searching for 2 of my favourite things on etsy- skulls and candles
after purchasing rather quickly- despite the list of incredible scent options being one of the best i've seen, i realised that these were not from the USA like most of my etsy purchases, but from my very own hometown of Geelong! (*insert gasp here)
after receiving my incredible creme caramel scented skull candle i realized that i actually know the lovely lady who pours her heart and soul into making these gems. small world- hell yes!
after approaching her, she very kindly offered any coco meet shonel friends the chance to win their very own skull candle. see below for details:
simply, jump on facebook and 'like' her page
and share it with your friends and you will be in the draw to win your very own skull candle (*insert YAY here)
nothing beats supporting locals, it's even easier when their products are as amazing as these!
(note: being a lady of leisure is nothing like being a stay at home mum- i wrote that for entertainment purposes only)
