As the Holiday season kicks in, I always seek out moments to create something special for our home. Something that will help our upcoming guests feel welcome in our house. We are a large Mexican-American family and gathering during the holidays always brings joy to our lives. We are so busy that seeing everyone in one place is not always possible. No matter how hectic this holiday season may get, we want to enjoy time with our families and help bring joy to their season as well. As someone who grew up in a large Mexican family, coming together at family gatherings has always been a motive for true happiness.

In our home joy comes in the little things, putting up our Christmas tree, decorating our home and creating our own winter wonderland is always fun! In order to begin this long-awaited process I took some time and visited my favorite store, Target, which carries many of the new limited edition Glade® Winter Collection scents. I purchased the Be at Peace™ scent, which has a hint of balsam fir and juniper. The scent is so clean and crisp it truly reminds me of winter. The packaging inspired me to create a Holiday wreath that would reflect the scent and colors of winter.

To my family and I, joy means spending time together, enjoying one another and having a
house filled with fresh scents and food of course!

The holidays are always a great excuse to craft and decorate your house with lots of red, green and gold! All colors inspired by Glade® and their limited edition Winter Collection of fresh aromas.

In order to create my wreath, I purchased some great Christmas decorations/ornaments and a medium size green wreath. You will need some hot glue or if you have ornaments ties or ribbon would also work. Creating the wreath is very simple and takes no time at all. You can have it done in about 30 minutes depending on how much detail you want to add.

I first make a mock arrangement of my wreath and try to imagine what I want it to look like.

Once I have dreamed up my perfect Christmas wreath; I start affixing the ornaments, ribbon, and bows. I purchased a pre-made bow, which is always easier, and some ribbon to tie around the entire wreath. Once I have secured all the ornaments and details to my wreath with ribbon ties or hot glue; it is ready to go on my front door and welcome our guest when they arrive on Noche Buena.

Christmas Centerpieces with Glade ® Scented Candles for Christmas #GladeHolidayMood #ad

::Momma Disclosure:: {This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions expressed are my own.} 





When I was a child I remember our home being filled with wonderful smells of fresh poinsettias, home-cooked meals, and scents of lit candles. My Momma and Abuelita, would make beautiful centerpieces that decorated our dinner, on Noche Buena. We celebrate Christmas as a family and had Posadas the nights leading up to Christmas Eve. 






These days, I am constantly seeking to recreate these traditions for my children. When I saw the glade scented candles I immediately thought of glittered candles to add to our Christmas centerpiece. 


We headed out to our local HEB to find the amazing new scented Glade ® candles. The scents created by Glade ® such as Frosted Cookie Party™ , Sparkling Spruce™ and Apple Cinnamon Cheer™ ,smell so delicious and are reminiscent of our cena de Noche Buena. 





They created the perfect #GladeHolidayMood thanks to #CollectiveBias. 


Here is what you will need to recreate our festive centerpiece, it is really easy and quick to make our glittered candles: 





 1. Spray-on Adhesive 

 2. Glitter 
 3. Glade Scented Candles (I used 3) 
 4. Fun Christmas decorations 




First; I set up a glitter station by my kitchen sink. I picked up the candle from the open end and                      sprayed on the adhesive. 

Then, I quickly sprinkled the glitter on all the way around the candles, on at a time. 

It’s so quick and easy and adds so much glitz to your centerpiece! The centerpieces can be decorated as you would like and see fit. I added reds, greens and silver to help my glittered candles stand out!






It was so easy; your holiday table will not only smell great but be lit in a beautiful manner. This centerpiece brings back memories of when I was younger and my Momma and Abuelita would prepare our holiday dinner. Always a special night filled with family, food and traditions. I am more than happy to recreate these nights for my children and our little family.
