as much as I do? I have a candle burning every day. I burn them for several different reasons. For the scent, for the light and sometimes just so I can watch them burn. I love the different scents that you can buy. I even have a birthday cake scent. What is your favorite scent and do you buy them for the color or the scent?

I have candles burning every day also...all year and I just love them!
My favorite scent is probably Cinnamon and all the Fall type scents.....Pine around Christmas, of course, haha.
In the summer it's more of the Flowery, girly scents.
I guess you can say I mostly buy them for the scent and the soft glowing light which I adore.

Glowing light? I love watching the flames flicker. But then again
I am one that loves the many bonfires I have in my backyard yearly. Even in the snow. I love watching flames dance all around.
HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDAP BOB!!~

Just be sure to keep the candles out of Gissi's reach sweet, you don't want the little darling getting hurt. My daughter grabbed for one one day so after that I started burning them either just in my bedroom or after she had gone to bed.

I love candles as they are very romantic. I find them to be relaxing to watch. I also have a birthday cake scent which I've never lite. French vanilla has always been my favorite scent.
Several years ago I had an accident that took my sense of smell away. It saddens me but nothing I can do about it. I miss the fresh scent of a burning candle.

I adore candles. I have tons of them. I currently have 24 jar candles on my shelf and 6 that are burning in my living room and kitchen. My sister works for Yankee Candle so I am so blessed by being able to keep my stash fully stocked. She gets me the candles at a discount. I think my favorite scent over all is Clean Cotton. It makes your house smell like freshly done laundry. I know that sounds silly, but I love that smell of freshly laundered and dryed clothing. It just smells clean to me. Then there are the seasonal scents. I love Christmas Cookie, Jack Frost and Frosted Cedar Wreath for the holidays. I adore Spiced Pumpkin and Harvest Apple for Thanksgiving. I love all the candle scents but those are my personal faves.

I just went there today and got 6 large jars, 2 medium swirl jars, several electric fragrance bases and refills and three Christmas themed burners. Thank God she gets a great discount or my hubby would throw a fit.

Hi Hun,
I thought I was the candle fanatic lol. I have a ton of candles, but I'm pretty limited as to where I can light them with a 16 month old. Especially seeing as she gets into EVERYTHING lol! My favourite colour and scent are the purple ones that smell like grape! Mmmmm! I also like other scents too, so it's not just purple ones going all the time lol.
Love & Hugzz, Your Friend, PurpleTeddyBear.

I'm pretty sure I got them from a friend that had them from party lite. They really are great smelling candles!

I love burning candles all year round. I love vanilla or anything that smells like something is baking. I like all colors it really doesnt matter to me. I just love the way the house smells when Im burning candles or tarts.

I love candles! I try to burn mine on days that I am going to be home most of the day. I like almost any candles.My favorite scent is Blueberry Cheesecake by Home and Garden Party. They don't make them anymore but I have some that I bought earlier and I really like them. I also like strawberry candles from a shop that my husband found in Ohio.

I love candles of all kinds. I even buy the unscented if I can find a good deal on them. I keep a basket of vanilla scented tea lites in my living room so that they are handy for putting in candle holders and while they are in the basket the whole room smells like vanilla. I have candles in every room of my apartment and they are all kinds, shapes and scents.

I love cadles in all shapes and forms and scent. I have thoussends at home (I hide them untill I need them as my husband will kill me). I once got hips of candels scented for 1c each because the labels came off so I got a whole box. I light candels when we have people over or in the bathroom when I am taking a bath.

My routine everyday is get up, send the kids to school and clean the house. As I clean each room, I light a candle in each. It's like my little reward for a clean room LOL Also a reminder that the room WAS clean after he kids trash it again. My favorite scent is Vanilla however it's a close tie with Lilac.

I do; I love them and incense too, but I don't burn them unless basically I am in control of the environment because my daughter shares the bedroom with me and she can't stand it, so I don't do it. But I love burning candles for the scents and what not.
