Are you ready for spring? Show us just how ready you are!

For contest entries, we need you to search for spring scents for us. List the name of a company (with URL) and the scent that they carry that somehow symbolizes all things spring. The catch is the company must specify that this is a spring-type scent - either on the website, their blog, newsletter, facebook page. It doesn't matter...as long as the scent name and the word spring are somehow tied together.

You will gain ONE entry for each company/scent combo that you list.
You will gain 5 EXTRA entries if you post a thank-you to Candles, Gifts & More on their Facebook page.
You will gain 5 EXTRA entries if you post a thank-you to K's Kreations on their Facebook page.
(Be sure to mention you are from Candlefind. If you make such a post, please be sure to post in this thread letting me know that you did.)

How to play:

* The key word to search for is: spring. Post the vendor name, URL, scent name and the reference to spring that you found.

* Variations of the word spring are A-OK! (Example - springtime).

* Vendor names can be repeated but not scent names. Variations of a scent name are OK. (Example: Birthday Cake and Birthday Cakes would be considered two separate entries.)

* Vendors may be for candles or tarts only. No bath and body this go-round.

* You cannot post directly behind yourself. This means there must be at least one other person's response after yours before you can post again. Otherwise, you can enter as many times as you like!

* This will be a random draw. You will gain entries as outlined above. Three winners will be chosen using Random.org. I will then randomly choose which winner receives which prize. Please see the post under Monthly Contest to see the prizes.

* To be eligible, you must be an active participant of the forum. Active participation is considered to be a minimum of three posts per month.

* Contest ends March 13, 2011 at 11:59pm CST.

Example of how this game will be played (For this example, I am using the word winter instead of spring.):

Poster 1: Colonial Candle http://www.colonialcandle.com/
Winter Woods

Poster 2: The Spotted Hog http://www.thespottedhogcandle.com
Cinnamon Balsam: Warm cinnamon with hints of balsam fir. A cozy winter blend. A great holiday fragrance!

Poster 1: Hat Creek Candle
http://www.hatcreekcandle.com/
From their newsletter: New Winter Fragrances! Carrot Cake

Poster 3: Sarah's Wax & Wix
http://www.facebook....2942412?sk=wall
Under her discussions tab: Winter Candle Scents - Home Sweet Home

and so on.

Good luck and have fun!
