It's important to enjoy the little things in life because they can add up to make you happier in the long run. Something that I like to treat myself to every once in awhile is a pretty candle. I have a love for candles that smell good and have pretty packaging. The aroma they give off is relaxing and provides a sense of calming. For several years now, I have been a fan of candles.
Candles are a great addition to any home. They provide a pleasant sense as well as a bit of comfort. I find them relaxing too. There are some many different places you can use them: the bathroom, on the tub as you take a bath, on your desk, on a side table next to your bed, on the kitchen table, etc.
They also make for a great gift. You could give them as a birthday gift, thank you gift, just because present, or even a gift to you (#treatyourself). Pair them with a cute set of matches as well as some ribbon and you're set!
My current candle scent for winter is Fir and Firewood. You might be able to find the last of them at Anthropologie. It was a signature scent special for this season. I have been burning it in my room for a couple months now, and every time I walk in my room I still get excited when I smell the lovely scent.
In the spring and summer, my go to scent is Volcano Capri Blue. This scent has a light citrus scent with small floral undertones. Both of these scents come in adorable glass jars with gold tops. They make for great decorative pieces when they aren't being used.
What's your go to candle scent?

I adore candles. I like sweet smells plus the typical winter scents as well.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the Volcano scent! That has always burning in my home!
ReplyDeleteI got a three-wick candle from my sister-in-law this Christmas, and it absolutely smells amazing! I think it's so much better than the ones I buy from Bath and Body Works because the scent filled the entire apartment for long while! I got the Yashioka Gardenia by Voluspa. :)
ReplyDeletethis is so pretty and I love candles! It makes such a difference in the house.
ReplyDeleteI love the Volcano scent at Anthro! It's one of my favorites! Also Mahogany Teakwood at B&BW is great!
ReplyDeleteThese look beautiful. I love candles
ReplyDeleteI was just going to say - I saw this at Anthro! Candles are my favorite.
ReplyDeleteGotta love a good candle! :)
ReplyDeleteLove that scent! It's my favorite Anthropology scent and I love all of their candles. Plus the jars are so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds amazing! I need new candles - I have used most of mine!
ReplyDeleteI have yet to try an Anthro candle- I might need to add that to my bucket list for this year! BBW ones are my weakness... #basic I know!

My mom and I are HUGE fans of the Volcano line of candles! They have even more amazing products on their site than in the Anthro stores!
ReplyDeleteCandles are literally my love-language. You can always find me stalking Bath & Body Works for their latest scent! Right now I'm switching between Twisted Peppermint and Champagne Toast!

My mother used to collect candles. Never burned them, just collected them on a shelf, lol. I love them because of her, but actually burn them regularly and just love the scent and mood they can sometimes give. Your winter scent, Fire and Firewood, sounds so divine!!
ReplyDeleteLove it! I just got 4 candles from Bed bath and beyonds $10 3 wick candle sale! Nothing like a good slow burning delicious candle :-)

Confession: I have this weird obsession with candles, I go through like, 3 candles a week haha! They just smell so good and are sooo relaxing!
ReplyDeleteThe candle you pictured has lovely packaging! I recently gifted my sister a candle from Target, I think the scent is Home fire or something like that - that's my new favorite candle scent.
ReplyDeleteI need to start taking advantage of anthro's candle assortment...this one sounds so great - I love anything w/ an outdoorsy smell. (so not girly of me!) x, nicole // www.nicoleeigh.com
ReplyDeleteI love buying candles at Anthro. My favorite is the Volcano but I might try this one. I love mixing it up!
ReplyDeleteCandles are SO addicting! I have an entire shelf full of them in my linen closet categorized by season haha! I always have one burning!
ReplyDeleteAhh Anthro makes the BEST candles! I've never tried this scent, but it's going on my shopping list!
