Christmas Candles
I love Christmas candles - can I admit here (amongst friends) that I burn them all year round? The glorious scents of spruce and cinnamon, nutmeg and candy - who wouldn’t want their house to smell like this all of the time? Yes there are other scented candles that suit other seasons - but that’s for another day. It’s already November people. Christmas is coming!!
Have you got the carols cranked up and your decorating elf suit on? No one needs more stress in there lives so if the thought of Christmas causes you to hyperventilate then skip straight to the Christmas candle scents of gingerbread and pudding, sip on a hot chocolate and hum along to Buble - see, your half way there before you can say Ho Ho Ho!!
Anyway, for many years I’ve been burning Glasshouse Christmas candles - which are always amazing (and increasingly pricey) and then assorted favourites from Bath and Bodyworks, Crabtree & Evelyn, Ecoya and Circa Home.
Spending your money on something that literally goes up in smoke means that looking for a well priced candle without sacrificing on quality is important. Like many I'm pretty particular about where the candles are made. They also have to be gorgeous. Just saying.
These options in Myer ticked the boxes. They have the traditional Christmas vibe in abundance. The brands are Wavertree & London and Sohum. All are Australian made and under $40 ea. The packaging is fabulous and festive (who has trouble throwing out boxes? Actually when they're this good, I reuse them as storage containers for decorations). The scents are rich and authentic - almost as good as cooking a Christmas pudding or cake #aintnobodygottimeforthat
Not sure which will be my favourite(s) yet..
