Valentine Cuddles & Candles

There’s something about Valentine’s Day that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. 

For the last few years, hubs and I have been using V-Day as a day to celebrate our first baby, Pretzel.  We take this time of the year to truly show her how much she is loved and how much she means to us.  This year, baby joined in on the festivities. 

Whether we take her on a beach getaway, or spend a relaxing afternoon where she can run and play in all the dirt her little heart desires, the mood always has to be set.  

Pretzel loves when I turn on candles in the house.  It seems like it calms her just as much as it does for me.  When I discovered Companion Candles, I knew it would be perfect for her. 

We always have to be careful when lighting candles around our fur babies.  Sometimes, candles aren’t made with the best ingredients.  I didn’t have to worry when lighting my Companion candle.  The ingredients are all natural and clean. 

My deliciously scented Locked Eyes & Instant Connections candle is a vanilla and coconut blend sending waves of warm sweetness when lit. 

All Companion Candles products are organic, and use pesticide free coconut-soy wax blends.  They’re free of paraffins, phthalates, preservatives and petroleum and burn for a whopping 40 hours.  In other words, they’re completely non-toxic.  I am a little obsessed with the wide, clean burning wooden wick, too.  

I also love Companion Candles because it’s women-owned, cruelty free, and made in the US. 

I could go on and on about how great the actual candles are, but what is even more great is how the brand gives back.  Companion Candles donates a portion of proceeds to various animal welfare organizations.  Since Pretzel came from a shelter, this is extra special for me. 

Beautiful candles with cute messages, warm aromas, relaxing non-toxic vibes, and helping fur baby in need.  What more can a girl, her pup, and her babes ask for on Valentine’s Day?
