I wanted to do another post about what my current favorites are. Most of my favorites right now center around Christmas and the holidays. You can see my previous 10 Things Currently here.
1. Santa Mugs
As you may know, I love vintage items. So when Pottery Barn came out with these Santa Mugs last year I scooped up three of them. Pottery Barn has them back again this year and I bought one more to round out my collection. They are perfect to sip hot chocolate in this holiday season, especially love them in my Hot Chocolate Bar.
2. ScentSicles
I am in love with these ScentSicles in Fir. You hang the ScentSicles from your artificial tree to help it smell like a fresh cut tree. I start with two on my tree and then every week I add another ScentSicle to help keep the smell going.
3. White Milk Glass Dishes
I have been picking up a lot of white milk glass dishes at my local Goodwill. I do not know what it is about the white milk glass that has been calling my name, but I have got a collection going now! Most of the items I have bought has been added to my scrapbook desk to hold embellishments. A couple months ago I shared some of my other favorite finds from Goodwill.
4. Battery Operated Candles
With the days getting shorter, I love having these battery operated candles out in my living room. They have a timer on them so I can tell the candles to turn on at 5:00pm and then automatically turn off in 4 hours. This is perfect because I do not have to remember to turn them on each night.
5. EOS Smooth Lip Balm
I know that I am really late to jump on this band wagon, but this EOS Smooth Lip Balm in Strawberry Sorbet is my favorite. I started using the EOS brand right before we went to Alaska and now I use it multiple times a day.

I have an artificial tree so I would love to use the scentsicles!
It’s so nice to have the smell of a real tree!
Those Santa mugs are so adorable! I haven’t seen the scentsicles! Too cool!
I love the ScentSicles!
We ended up pulling out the artificial tree this year because we ran out of time to decorate (i.e. we decorated for the first time yesterday!), so I need that fir scent! Where do you buy it? Also, I love those milk white glasses–such a pretty collection!
It’s hard between moving and going to Disney World 🙂 My Michaels carries the ScentSicles; last year I spotted them at Target and Kohls too. Otherwise Amazon has some.
Love the mugs so much! I need those in my life haha
Thank you Ashley! Aren’t they fun? I think you need them too 🙂
As the proud owner of a fake Christmas tree I need to go check out: ScentSicles
Yes Joyce! I love adding the smell of a real tree to my fake tree!
I bought some scenticles to try this year too, I think I got the Spruce scent, love it!
Aren’t they fun! I love having the scent of a real tree!
My Nana had the exact same Santa Cause mugs1! The last two years we have really slacked and just completely didn’t put up a tree. My son is 18 months and we are in the middle of a move so THANK GOD he isn’t to an age where he notices. My time for Christmas out the ears is coming soon!
So many great things to love about this season. Those Santa mugs are the bomb!
Thank you Lysha! They are definitely a favorite of mine!
