Candles, My Love



Next to soap, candles are my favorite thing to purchase for our home. They can evoke all sorts of different feelings, and I love matching them to the season. For instance- in the summer I'm always using some sort of crisp citrus or linen scent. In the fall we burned "kitchen spice" and cinnamon candles. For a while I've been admittely obsessed with Bath and Body Works candles. They smell great, but they burn a little too fast for me. Considering I have them lit from 5 to 11 every night. So right now I'd like to introduce you to my new love, Woodwick. Oh my.

I've seen these candles before, but finally purchased my first one on clearance at Tuesday Morning. Now I'm wondering why something so fabulous could ever be on clearance. Anyways, this candle is the bees knees. The scent is called fireside glow, and it literally smells like a warm, cozy, ski cottage that has a fireplace going. Best of all- the wood wick literally crackles like a fire! I'm in love.



Not that I don't love my old favorite, but this new friend has really sparked my fancy. The only caveat for these Woodwick's is that they're so darn expensive! Does anybody know of a discount store that sells this brand (Ross, Marshalls, TJ Maxx?)


Is there any little thing that you love getting for your house? Does anybody else love matching their scents to the season? I'd love to know if you have a favorite candle brand I should try!
