2011 was the year that I became obsessed with candles... there's nothing like chilling at home with a lit candle that fills up your house/room with the scent of your choice.
I don't know if you can tell, but I love sweet smelling candles. I bought my first Slatkin & Co candle from Bath & Body Works last year, and have fallen in love with it ever since. Granted, it is difficult to purchase them from Singapore since B&BW only allows US-based credit cards - I used vConcierge for previous purchases but I'm planning on trying out Comgateway the next time I need to stock up on candles.
And that Yankee candle you see on the extreme right? Well, that is the latest candle in my collection.. haven't burnt it as of yet (might do so on Christmas itself!) and I'm so happy that I managed to find it locally. I did go a little crazy and purchase the Quick Scent as well as the Car Vent sticks in the Christmas Cookie scent... looks like I'm pretty much all set in the Christmas Cookie scent department till next year :) Oh and a quick tip, remember to trim your candle wick to about 1/4 inch (about 0.7cm) to prevent your candles from sooting and emitting those nasty black smoke.
Have a great day!
I want to try out the slatkin & co candles, after the holidays I see a ebay purchase coming..hehehe
ReplyDeleteSterndll98: I think that Slatkin & Co has one of the best ranges of candle scents.. and it's easily found too. Have fun looking on eBay for them! :)
ReplyDeleteI know, I also became really into scented candles this year! I must say I haven't tried any of these "high end" candles though as they are way too pricey for my student budget but I have found some great ones at Wal-Mart for so cheap!
ReplyDeleteGaby: Oh I wish there was a Wal-Mart over here so I could get some cheaper candles! :)
ReplyDeleteI wish to own even one yankee candle someday! :)
