Addicted to Candles!!

[KissMyGrits]

I realized today that I have a serious problem. I went into the candle shop at the mall and was browsing. They had a great sale going on, so I figured what the heck. Almost $50 later i walked out with three bags and a much lighter wallet!! LOL!!

I did get a great deal on alot of stuff. Now I just need to hide it in among my other candles at home. Hmmmm... Looks around for hiding spots....LOL!!

Seriously though, I think this is becoming an addction with me. I love any kind of candle and accessory. I think I need to start a support group.

I love candles!!! I wouldn't exactly say I'm addicted, but I am addicted to good smells. Currently I use Wizard Air Wicks to keep things smelling good, but they don't last too long, so I'm in the process of looking for something better, and that has longer lasting affects.

But anyway, yeah, candles are cool. My favorites are the Christmas tree smell ones, and the vanilla ones. I also like the kind that smell like blueberries. Oh for all you candle lovers out there, they make these heating things for candles now. You put the candle on this thing that gets heated up when it plugs into the wall, and it works great. Your candle will last 20 times longer with this, than it does when you light it, yet it smells just as good, and most importantely, it's less dangerous then lighting it the traditional way. If I find out what this product is called I'll let you all know.

I like to burn candles in my home to freshen the air. I'm currently addicted to Vanilla Cup Cake and Cinnamon Bun scented candles! :)

I found one today called Charodonnay. It is fruity smelling and very nice. I have a tart burner and honey dew tarts. They smell great together.

I went through a huge candle phase years ago. I still use them, but not all the time. My nephew's wife is obsessed with Yankee candles. I go to the Yankee Candle store and buy her baskets loaded with all sorts of candles and accesories. Her favorites are the McIntosh, Peach, and Honeydew scents.

Ditto! Same goes for incense. :lol:

Those Yankee Candles are the best, the ones I buy all the damn time. Honeydew, Clean Cotton, Coffee, Patchoulli, Cucumber.. the list goes on. I'll burn them all day long if possible.

I know! It drives my husband crazy!! I told him I could have worst addictions!! LOL!!

I bought a cute tealight holder that is shaped like a butterfly. It is adorable. Yankee Candle is wonderful....

You changed your name. :eek: :lol:

OMG... Clean Cotton Yankee Candle is AMAZING.

Has anyone ever used Yankee Candle's car air freshener? It works like a Glade Plug-In, but you plug the freshener into an air vent. I have Midsummer's Night (I think) in the car - not my choice, BTW :lol: My mom is addicted to that scent, and I think it smells terrible. :lol:

I don't do the candle thing - I used to burn incense sticks years ago, and loved it. I'm seriously considering burning incense sticks again.

I got probelms like that when it comes to my car. I always have like 4 of the tree air freshners. my car never smells.

I go thru candle phases. Mostly during the winter. Vanilla and Cinnemon are about the only ones I can stand though. Oh, and Strawberry.

It's kinda weird, huh? I finally got it changed back to my original one. :lol:

I know, I love the way that stuff smells. Yes! I think it was Country Apple, but I'm not for sure. :)

Go for it. Those things rock. :lol:

I love Candles. I burn them all the time. I usually don't get name brand candles though, I usually get the kind you can buy at walmart. I have mandarin orange, hazel nut, rose petals, and cucumber melon right now. I love the hazel nut, but JOnathan hates it.

:lol: My mom's boyfriend is the same way with hazelnut coffee. My mom, myself, and our roomate loves the smell, but whenever we make it, he has to leave the house for an hour, cause it makes him sick. He says it smells like wet dog. :lol: Personally, I don't understand why anyone wouldn't like the smell of hazelnut. I think it smells great!!

I'm addicted to candles for a totally different reason. It's not the smells that I like, because, I actually rarely have a sense of smell. But I love burning them, and playing with the wax. I'm a bit of a pyro. If I had candles I'd probably end up burning down the house b/c I love dripping the wax and watching it melt. - my confession.

Hi,

New here as of today. I like candles of all scents. Just depends on who makes them and if they smell good before I purchase them. But I won't touch a jel candle for all the money in the world! Those things are dangerous!

Welcome to SO!!

Yankee Candles are my favorite. Clean Cotton, Storm Watch, & Sage & Citrus are probably my 3 favorite scents, plus I got one of those scent bottles(Clean Cotton) that you snap on your vent in your car. Sometimes I have to watch my spending at Yankee. Sometimes I find myself spending in excess of $50!!

Darn my candle addiction!!
