Well, I put together a little contest for you. The contest will run from 11/13/08 to 11/16/08 .
I would enjoy your thoughts on “what Christmas means to you”. Just place your thoughts in the comments section and one of my kids will draw a name from the comments.
I am excited to do this Christmas silicone mold giveaway for you. I really enjoyed how the grubby snowman pillar candle turned out. I am definitely going to be including him/her in many of my gift baskets for the family.
I have tested the snowman silicone mold and the head nor any part of the body pops off. =) I have tested this silicone mold on straight parafin pillar and straight soy pillar wax. They both turned out great.
You will be able to add all those snowman great additional touches yourself. Personalize each and every snowman/ snowwoman made from the mold.
Again leave your comments and win yourself a grubby snowman silicone mold.

Its Having Christmas Dinner with all the family around,and then Opening the Gifts… It’s Gathering at each other’s homes, to see their trees…And Most important,knowing how Blessed I am to have these things to share..With those I love….
I love your “Grubby Snowman Pillar Silicone Mold!” My decor is primitive and grubby looking candles I adore.
Christmas has so many varied meanings for me. It is a time of reflection on the past year and the upcoming new year.
It is faith, family and friends! Basically, being thankful for the true meaning of Christmas which is the jubilation of Christ’s birth into this world. The celebration of the season with lovely decorations, good food and family. Please enter me in your delightful drawing. Many thanks, Cindi
Christmas to me means spending time with my 2 older children that live out of state. They both work 2 jobs so it is very hard to get together but we always manage to do so for the holidays.
Hubby and I take nature walks in the snow – its so beautiful and peaceful.
Mostly it should be a time to thank God for everything you have.
Being a candlemaker and having my own retail business, Christmas is my busiest time of year. I constantly have to remember to leave the “chaos” at the shop, and focus on my family. We need to slow down so we can remember the true meaning of Christmas and be thankful for all of the blessings in our lives.
Christmas means family! Growing up one of 8 kids we never had much but what we had was wonderful. I think that is were I learned to craft so I could always make gifts for my friends at school and of course family. Have to say I love your molds and I think that grubby snowman would make an awesome SOAP for all winter long!

Christmas for me means connecting with family and friends I don’t get to talk to as much the rest of the year. And the fun of holiday shopping!
Like everyone else, Christmas means sharing with family and friends. However, last week I visited the battlefields in Belgium for the November 11th Rememberance. I thought about all the brave men and women in all wars who cannot spend Christmas with their loved ones or never will. We certainly owe them everything that we are today so lets give them all a thought at this special time
Christmas to me means a bright look to a “new” future. This season has been a trying time for our family in the past. I lost a brother and then a nephew, both just a few days before Christmas about 10 yrs. apart. So…just as baby Jesus was born on Christmas, so are our hopes of a new beginning every year for my family. The glitter of a new fallen snow, the colorful lights, beautifully decorated neighborhoods and especially the big eyes and smiles on the kids’ faces brings a warm, joyful feeling to anyone…no matter what.
Christmas reminds me first of all that Jesus is the reason for the season.
Family is very important to me and enjoying all of my grandkids excitement over”Santa Claus” is priceless.
I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Christmas to me is a special feeling you have in your heart! The warmth you share with family, friends, and even people you don’t know. Strangers that need a helping hand. A smile to a lonely person that otherwise would be ignored. It shouldn’t be just at Christmastime but throughout the year!
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Christmas is all about sharing the Love we have inside us and that is why we can celebrate Christmas all year round !
Happy Holidays to you and yours.
Hello Dawn,
The meaning of Christmas has changed so very much for me. I used to tend to every detail, a tree in every room of the house, all of the Holiday baking and fussing. Now I really know what Christmas is, it is family and friends. The people that I care for in our home. It is the the gathering of loved ones and telling of the silly things that have happened to us, it is remembering the ones that are missing, way to many might I add. It is knowing that God blesses us with each and every day that he gives us. Also helping those that are not as lucky as we are to be warm, fed, and loved.
Also certainly the making of new friends!
Hi Dawn,
What Christmas means to me. It’s such a magical time of year. Everyone seems to be so warm and friendly. Smiles are everywhere. The warmth of the season is in every ones hearts, and no matter how old you are you can still feel like a child.And what it comes down to it’s all about loving, caring and helping one another. I just Love Christmas. I have 3 grown children, 5 grandchildren and a wonderful hubby.
Merry Christmas to everyone, Deb
Hi Dawn,
Christmas is my favorite holiday and time of year. There’s nothing like a hot cup of chocolate before the fire while the snow is coming down. I love sledding with my kids, building snowmen and putting the Christmas tree up together. Each year they get a special ornament, just for them, to add to the tree! Best the best part about Christmas is learning the Reason for the Season, going to Chritmas Eve service together and just being a family!
Christmas for me is a time with my family that I don’t get to see but this time of the year only.
A time that we even bond closer and have wonderful past memories to talk about awhile we are making new memories to cherish and look back on.
Its a time I see old friends and make new memories with them to look back on.
Christmas is Love just as the past and present is with friends and family.
But most important thing about Christmas is
the one that die for me and gave me life to have and share with those I love and loves me.
Christmas is about Jesus and all he has given us.
Without Jesus I wouldn’t have Christmas.
Christmas time for me, means that I get to spend time with my family and friends. It creates those memories that you love to reflect upon all year long. We spend a day decorating the Christmas tree and writing out our letters to “Santa” and it’s my all time favorite time of the year!
Christmas is a time for family and friends to come together and show their love for each other with presents, good food and good company. Come as you are.
Thank you for all the warm Christmas holiday comments.
All of your thoughts on Christmas are absolutely wonderful. I greatly enjoyed reading them.
I will be drawing the winning name tomorrow morning.
Stay tuned for the next blog.
Many Blessings to You And Yours,
