Making "Scents" in Winter...


Fragrant candles positively add to the ambiance of a home.

On a table in the front hallway, a Yankee cinnamon candle adds appealing fragrance as one enters the front door.

A soy candle with a "Birthday Cake" fragrance is in one downstairs room and smells sweetly "delicious."



A vanilla candle appropriately burns in the kitchen.

Fragrant candles are great in all seasons but especially in winter.

DO YOU ENJOY FRAGRANT CANDLES?

I never light candles unless there is no electricity in the house. I'm so afraid of my house burning down. Enjoy yours.

No I am afraid I get all sneezy when I burn candles. I even get all sneezy in the candle aisles of a store....LOL And I can't go into homes that burn candles. So my home, just smells like my home. Usually like what ever I have baked or cleaned that day. :) Kit

I can smell your cinnamon candle from here, Susan. I have a cinnamon scented candle that I put out in the Fall. And a Jasmine one in the Spring. Yankee candles are nice, aren't they?

I have several scented candles for decorations, but seldom light them except at Christmas. My daughter lights them all the time.

The candles have so many scents today you can literally pick the mood you want to be in. ENJOY yours.

I love the scents, but I'm leery of open flames. Usually, I'll put a scented candle (unlit) in a closet or other closed space. When I open the door, I get the fragrance.
