Celebrate with Febreze Home for the Holidays Collection #FebrezeHoliday
The Holiday Season will be here before we know it! Already the stores are stocking their shelves full of Holiday items. Recently, we received this cute Febreze Home for the Holidays Collection box in the mail from Febreze, Walmart, and SheSpeaks! The kids were thrilled to see the Holiday House and I was excited about getting all the amazing Holiday Febreze scents and goodies!
Have ever used Febreze to add an extra festive touch or to enhance the decor in your home? Febreze truly eliminates odors so your guests will only notice the fresh holiday scents when in your home. If you haven’t tried any of the Febreze Home for the Holidays Collection you should get some soon to help you get into the holiday spirit! The scents and the designs on the packaging helped inspire the ideas in the scentspiration box!
One of my favorite parts about the Holidays all the amazing smells! A wonderful way to ramp up for the Holidays is by using Febreze’s holiday scents including Frosted Pine, Apple Tart, Toasted Almond, Vanilla Latte, and Sugared Cranberry. Do you like having a different holiday scent for each room or one for the entire house? Febreze’s Home for the Holidays Collection is a great way to get your home ready for the holiday season!
We received the Frosted Pine, Apple Tart, and Vanilla Latte NOTICEables NOTABLES scents! My favorite is the Apple Tart!
Our Home for the Holidays house came complete with scents and a scentspiration box full of amazing recipes, activities, and home decor!
Febreze Home for the Holidays Recipe – Cocoa-Dusted Almonds
What you need: 1 pound raw almonds, 1 tablespoon coconut oil, 2 teaspoons cornstarch, 1/4 cup cocoa powder, 8 packets sugar-free sweetner, and a pinch of salt
Directions:
1. Melt the coconut oil to a liquid, and then pour it over the almonds in a large bowl. Make sure each almond is covered.
2. In a separate bowl, mix together the cornstarch, cocoa powder, sugar-free sweetener, and salt.
3. Pour the dry ingredients onto the almonds. Toss the almonds in the mixture until they are well coated.
4. Pour onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 250 degrees for about 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Let them completely cool then ENJOY!
These were DELICIOUS! The Cocoa-Dusted Almonds would make a great item to take to the neighbors for the Holidays or to have at a Holiday Party! Our family enjoyed these toasted almonds this past weekend. This recipe is easy to make and tastes awesome! Have you ever made toasted almonds, if so what’s your favorite recipe?

2. Use a fork to mix in the oil and vanilla.

Loved the refreshing coffee smell of the scrub! The Coffee Scrub would make a great gift for a coffee enthusiast this Holiday Season!
What is your favorite coffee flavor and when is the last time you made a cup of it at home? I really loved the refreshing coffee smell of the scrub!

Book: “The Family Read-Aloud Christmas Treasury” selected by Alice Low
Several years ago I picked up this book The Family Read-Aloud Christmas Treasury selected by Alice Low at a local Goodwill store. The girls love getting this book out every year and reading through the many (over 50) Christmas stories and poems. It includes a mix of traditional Christmas stories. I like that it has The Birth of Jesus Luke 2:1-20 in the book and other religious stories as well as a few stories about Santa, Snowmen and more. I think the “make believe” stories are neat to read with the girls as long as they know the true meaning of Christmas. Probably one of my favorites is at the very end of the book:
The Joy of Giving
by John Greenleaf Whittier
Somehow, not only for Christmas
But all the long year through,
The joy that you give to others
Is the joy that comes back to you;
And the more you spend in blessing
The poor and lonely and sad,
The more of your heart’s possessing
Returns to make you glad.
