Hey
There!
I love candles. Everyone
knows that. That's why I got soooo many smell goods for Christmas.
Unfortunately, you have to finish what you have before you start burning new
ones. Luckily, you get many opportunities to burn candles during the
holidays. I finished 4 candles
during the month of December. It wasn't hard. Candles really relax me, if they
have a good scent.
My favorite candle of
the month was my Apple Pie scented candle by
Celebrating Home. One of my coworkers was selling it for her kid. This one was
very nice. It smelled just like warm spiced apple pie. It had a great room
throw without being over powering. I really enjoyed burning this
one.
My next fave was the
Banana Nutmeg Bread Pudding from Bath and Body Works. Man! I thought someone
was cooking the custard and cutting the bananas for a real pudding. The room
throw was amaze-balls and it burned all the way to the bottom. Three wick
candles are tricky you know. Sometimes they only burn two thirds of the way
down and then you are pissed. Not this one though.
I burned Peppermint
Creme by Living Colors. It's a Big Lot's brand that I thought would be nice.
I've had other Big Lot's candles that I didn't like but this one smelled so
good in the store, that I was convinced it would be perfect in my house. If you
stand really close to it, you smell a faint scent of vanilla peppermint. If you
walk 2 feet from the candle, you smell wax. I only paid $2.50 but I want $2.75
back for my trouble.
I also purchased
Pumpkin Waffles from 719 Walnut Avenue from Wal-mart. The first time I lit it,
it smelled great and then the next time I lit it, I couldn't smell it that well
until it had been burning for 2 hours. That's not normally a huge problem for
me because I typically burn candles when I'm going to be home for a while. But,
I'd like to know that my candles are going to smell good whenever I burn them.
I forgot what I paid for this one but I want an extra quarter back on this one
as well.
Like I said, I have a
lot of candles that I'm ready to burn and wax chunks that I'm ready to melt. I
know that January is going to be a scent-a-licious month in my house. What are
you burning this month?
