Hello, Candles that have the designs in them, are for decorations in my opinion and they make great centerpieces, I can't blame you for not wanting to burn them, that will make me feel really bad to burn a nicely designed candles, besides you get to enjoy a designed candle much longer as decoration. Thank you for responding, to my candle post. Happy My Lotting!

I love my candles! :) It's just comforting to me to have one burning whenever I'm in my room. My favorite scents are the ocean-scented ones (you know what I mean...I can't really describe it any other one. lol); the food scented ones don't really have that much of an appeal for me. Oh, well.

Candles were used widely before we discovered electricity. It was one of the easy source of lighting, usually for the rich people. However, the world has changed and nowadays people only use candles when the electricity is cut off or when there is a power failure. In my place it was rare that the electricity would have failure. I pay my electricity bills and therefore the possibility of it being cut off is not that much. But what I like most about candles, now they come in variety of kinds. And I like the fragrant ones the best. I like going to the IKEA to get fragrant candles so that I could burn it inside my bedroom. The perfume from the candles are therapeutic, it is meant for aromatherapy and I like choosing the ones which generate calmness and stress-relieving fragrant. The perfumes I like best are citrus and rose. These two fragrant smells just nice, not too much.

I love burning candles! I mostly burn them in the winter. I don't know what it is but there is something comforting about sitting at home on a cold winter night with a candle burning. I love food scented candles. I especially love candles that smell like baked goods, in the winter. During the summer I don't burn as many candles but when I do, I enjoy candles that smell like the beach and that have fruity smells. One of my favorite places to buy candles is www.yankeecandle.com . They have really great scents and really great deals and coupons to use!

Hello onlinerep. I like candles, but I seldom use one unless the power is cut on a dark light when we still need some light for our work or such. Candles make the atmosphere more romantic and warm, especially when there are two lovers being together.
