200th Post/Half Year Anniversary/It's Christmas Time GIVEAWAY! *CLOSED* Winner!


Merry Christmas! I wanted to celebrate a little bit early in honor of a few things. This is my 200th post! The Redolent Mermaid is a little over half a year old! And hey! It's Christmas time. 

The giveaway is one NEST candle of your scent choice from this Sephora link. To enter this giveaway simply comment with the gift you are most excited to give this year for Christmas. I will close this out on Tuesday night at 8pm EST and have Savanna draw the winner from a hat. I am most excited to gift my little girl a pet gerbil. Savanna received her Bearded Dragon at 5 years old from Santa and now Scarlette is 5 and about to get her first real pet to call her own (fish don't really count do they?!). Shhhhh..... don't tell her!

Merry Christmas!

Congratulations! We have a winner! Watch the video to see....

  1. Congratulations! Can you believe it's been that long since we twisted your arm and forced you to ..... well, since you started blogging? =P And 200 posts is pretty darn good too!

    The gift I'm most excited to give is actually pretty silly. It's a book for hubby and it's something like When Garden Gnomes Attack. I looked through it a bit before I wrapped it and the pictures are so hysterical.

    Thanks for the giveaway!

  2. I am so excited for you! 200 posts! Huzzah! Can you believe it has been that long since you started it?! I hope you never stop! I am excited to give Josh a personalized UFC shirt. It has his last name on it as well as his "jersey number," his birthday! I hope he loves it. <3

    Those NEST candles look awesome! Thanks for such a cool giveaway!

  3. Wow, very nice! I'm bought a new candle today (tobacco & patchouli I wanted a while back) since bedroom furniture I ordered arrived yesterday and it's been emanating a treated wood chemical smell. I haven't bought anything waxy in ages, fun to splurge.

    For the holidays I'm excited to give my mom a Groupon to a yoga studio. They have a chair yoga class and I'm hoping it is something that she finds relaxing.

    1. Exciting Jean! New furniture is always a treat. Let me know how that candle turns out.

      I bet your mom will love it. The gift of good health.

    2. I am really happy having furniture. I was living like a squatter in an abandoned building until now, not good.

      Very happy with the candle!! It was the last one so I figured I better go for it.

      I find yoga really restorative, emotionally. I hope she finds it therapeutic as well. Did you ever watch Bob Ross? His voice would just put me at ease and that's what yoga with a caring instructor does for me.

  4. Wow!!! 200 posts is amazing!!! :) congrats my friend!!

    I haven't done any shopping *gasp!* but I plan on sneaking down to the local grocery store after we get moved in to snag a Pokemon mask & treats that David has been eyeballing!

    I can't wait to hear what Scarlette names her new friend!!

    1. Pokemon is always a huge hit around here! It makes me excited that David is getting into it too. Hope you find some cool gifts! Happy shopping!

      I am looking forward to that too. I honestly have no idea what kinda name that lil gerbil will end up with.

  6. Congratulations!!! And I know the gerbil will be a big hit!

    I am excited to give my mother a wax warmer! Hoping she'll love wax melting as much as I do. Ever since I started in September I've been hooked! Merry Christmas!

      A warmer is the best gift a wax lover can give right?! I love spreading the wax joy too. Hoping your mom gets hooked!!!

  7. Wow, 200 posts?! How awesome!! Congrats!!

    I think I'm most excited for a gift we got our Savannah -- she loves Taylor Swift, so she's expecting to get the new album (either on CD or downloaded to her ipod). It's been on her Christmas list since it came out. So, she's getting that, but I also managed to find a concert DVD!! I think she'll be thrilled!! I'd love to take her to actual concert but they're ridiculously expensive!!!

    Merry Christmas!! :-)

  8. How exciting! I can't believe it has been 200 posts already! Woop! Woop!

    The gift I was most excited to give this year was the cabinet shelf. I was so very worried that you had changed your mind about it or the colors didn't match. David was also very excited and giddy about the whole thing. haha. I am also very excited to see Dads face when he walks in his Mancave to find a camo chair!

    I can't wait to see Scarlettes new fuzzy friend! I can imagine her reaction now :)

    1. Thank you so much!! I am over the moon excited about that shelf! I already have big plans for it. I know Dad is going to go bananas over his camo recliner. He will feel just like Phil. I bet it won't be long before it ends up in the living room. ;-)

    2. A winner! Woop! Woop! I'm doing my wax dance! (sniffing in the air and circulating my hands to my nose)

      Thank you Julie! Thank you Savanna! I can't wait to have my first Nest Candle. :)
