  2. I'm extremely fond of pumpkin. The scent has such warmth and richness! It also brings back loving memories of my mother, who made her pies from scratch, ALWAYS ... so for me, there are countless wonderful emotional overtones to that fragrance.

    Now my husband is from England, and when he came to Canada, pumpkin pie seemed like the weirdest thing in the world to him. (They don't traditionally eat gourds as dessert in the UK!) But the magic of pumpkin spice finally did its job, and now he loves it all: pumpkin pie, pumpkin cake, pumpkin lattes.

    So for me, pumpkin spice also makes the perfect soap, lip balm, hand cream, scented oil, fragrant soy candle. Pumpkin ROCKS.

  3. Hi Erin! These look awesome! I adore your soap and scrubs and I am sure these smell and feel wonderful. At my house, we love pumpkin pie and cookies, but my favorite thing about them is seeing the silly and scary faces my two kids put on them for Halloween.

  4. Hi Erin- Wow a pumpkin girl's dream give away! Very kind and generous.

    Why do I love pumpkin?
    1) They come from the chubbiest naturally made creatures on earth.
    2) Reminds me of being a kid and eating endless amounts of my Mom's homemade pumpkin pie.
    3) Just makes me feel cozy..so who doesn't want to take a bath in the cozy.

  6. Hiya Erin!
    OOo=weee!! What a great prize to win!
    They all look so very lovely, but that Cinderella Pumpkin Soap is just too cool!

    I ADORE pumpkins!
    Pumpkin pie
    pumpkin pie blizzard from DQ
    pumpkin candles
    everything about pumpkins!
    To me, they are the very symbol of Autumn and I look forward to filling my home and front porch with pumpkins and gourds of all sizes.

    This year was especially fun going to the local pumpkin patch to pick out our stash as I took our little 2 yo niece with me - what fun she had in that sea of pumpkins!

  7. I adore pumpkins! Nothing signals the start of Fall (my favorite time of year) like spotting those gorgeous bright orange gourds! My favorite pumpkin treats are these amazing pumpkin rolls that we get when we travel to Georgia and visit this cute pumpkin patch/farm. Since I won't get to take that trip this year, I'd love to win these great pumpkin treats to help tide me over until next time! :o)

  8. My son has become recently fascinated with pumpkins. It's difficult to go out without him wanting to hunt down pumpkins. We finally got him and his brother two mini pumpkins yesterday and every time he sees it he tells us about his pumpkin (he's 2 so the conversation isn't too long)... I wonder what he will do when we get the big carving pumpkins and I think he would fall over if he had mini pumpkin shaped soap!

  9. I love pumpkin. I love pumkin scents and I love anything pumpkin flavored. When I see pumpkin candles and pumpkin spice lattes being sold again, it means that fall is here, and fall is my favorite season!

    Tha Cinderella pumpkin soap looks amazing!

  10. Erin, this is such a generous giveaway. Thank you! :)

    What's not to love about a pumpkin? They taste delicious AND make wonderful decorations. But I don't recommend you go around your neighborhood taking bites out of the Jack O'Lanterns. Your neighbors might frown on that. hehe

  12. Hi. Great giveaway! I am a pumpkin addict. This year has been great for new pumpkin stuff. I had chicken in a pumpkin mole sauce for dinner at Not Your Average Joe's Friday night. I need to figure out how to make that!

    Also I have a new favorite pumpkin beer. Fisherman's Pumpkin Stout brewed in Gloucester MA. It seems to be available in many states, you should definitely try and track it down!

  13. Hi Erin -

  16. Hi, my name is Casey. I love all soaps, from whipped to a simple bar; the smells that I can't resist. I wanted to buy some pumpkin soaps, but haven't had the money to do so. It would be a great treat to win. I have always loved that pumpkin smell either by carving a pumpkin pie for Halloween or by baking a pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving. It's not an every day smell, it's unique and that's why I love it.
    Thanks so much,

    Casey

  17. Oops! I meant carving a pumpkin for Halloween or baking a pie for Thanksgiving. Sorrryyy!

    Have a good Week!

  18. Pumpkin is absolutely one of my favorite fall fragrances. I love how it is sweetly spicy, but not overpowering like some other fall fragrances.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Oh pumpkin how do I love thee? Let me count the ways...
    1. Pie(I can taste it now)
    2. Jack o' lanterns-my favorite family memories are of going to the pumpkin patch and everyone getting "the" perfect pumpkin. Then watching the kids go "ewwwwww" everytime they have to scoop out more of the "yuck" inside, while the littlest one nabs all the cut out chunks she can find and gnaws on the rinds.
    3. My house filling with the enticing fall aromas centered around pumpkin-with my candles and tarts.
    4.Last and certainly not least-smelling good enough to eat with a fab foodie fragrance that drives my hubby insane. I love wearing this scent!
    These soaps are wonderful looking and the scents sound divine. Thanks for sponsoring and good luck to everyone!

  24. I've always loved pumpkin. The scent, the taste (especially pumpkin pie). It's a wonderful fall fragrance, a nice warm scent on a cold day.

  25. i love pumpkin cause just the scent of a freshly grown pumpkin reminds me of Fall and gets me excited to carve a pumpkin for Halloween!

  26. I love pumpkin in all its incarnations--particularly soup and pie. : )

  27. Hey Erin! First and formost you know I love your stuff because your always willing to make me custom stuff, in custom scents, anytime, and that keeps me coming back for more!! It also helps that Im addicted to your Cocoa Butter SPF 15 Chapstick like its crack and I always order *at least* 6 at a time when I order them. Its like crack, I cant be without it!! And your new Shave Soaps are seriously the greatest!! All I know is your shop is awesome and I'll keep coming back for more as long as your open!!
    But why I love pumpkins. I love them for their fresh scent, but mostly for their seeds. Im a HUGE pumpkin seed fan. Every year I grow a pumpkin patch (but have yet to see the Great Pumpkin), then I cut them open, scoop out the seeds, make my famous pumpkin seed receipe, and eat them till Im sick. Them I take the actual pumpkins and feed them to my 18 year old Tortise, Martin, who weights a whopping 140lbs. He LOVES pumpkins! I freeze the rest for him to eat later on in the year and its so nice to thaw out some pumpkin in January/Febuary and smell that freshness. I love it!!

  31. How festive and what a clever collection. I love pumpkin.

    This year NC had its largest pumpkin ever weighing in at 1258 lbs. Still short by about 500 lbs of Ohio's world record, also set this year. Can ground pumpkin seeds be used for a scrub?
