Yankee Candles

Hello again everyone!

Today I am writing a blog post about one of my favourite things, candles! And for all you Yankee junkies out there: this one's for you.

There was never really a day I started buying candles, however I do remember starting to use and buy them a lot more near my year 10 exams as I find them very calming.

Firstly, I have my jar Yankee candle as you've seen many times on my blog! If you don't already know my sister bought this for me for my birthday this year. I have the 'Lake Sunset' candle. It's a very light and soothing smell (I really can't describe scents...) This size of Yankee candle is however very expensive (mine was around £16.99) so I haven't bought myself one yet, fingers crossed I might be lucky enough to receive one for Christmas!

Next, I have a few tarts. These are different to the small sampler candles because you burn them in a tart burner. In my opinion these are better than the sampler candles because their smell seems to fill the room and is stronger.

Pink sands is my favourite of these

This is the tart burner I have been using. It's from Poundland! I'm looking to buy one from Clinton's or anywhere that sells one that is a bit more attractive but, this will do the job for now.

Next, I love using these little sampler candles. You can buy these in all the same scents as the bigger candles but for a much cheaper price. I believe they're around the £1.80 mark however I'm not too sure. These aren't so powerful as the tarts when burnt however they are still lovely, especially on a cold, wintery night in!

As always with Yankee candles the packaging is super cute and the colours on these specific ones are lovely too! I've been burning a lot of these as we go in to the autumn / winter months which explains why I only have more summery scents left!

These little tea light holders are from Ikea.

This is my favorite way to burn tealights / Yankee candles, it's from Ikea.
