My favourite festive and wintery candles

OK, so any one that knows me personally will know that I am obsessed with candles, I just cannot have enough of them.  They are the best cure for wintry nights in and create such an amazing atmosphere, making you feel so relaxed.  So I thought  I would share some of my favourite Christmas and winter candles of the moment.

Off course it wouldn't be Christmas without the smell of cinnamon, I cant stand the smell any other time of the year, but I NEED to have a cinnamon candle at Christmas otherwise it would not be complete, my favourite one is the Yankee Candle Cinnamon stick.





I find the bigger jars are better value for money and you can use them year after year.  The tea lights are great as well for just the Christmas period.  I always find Yankee candles give the best scents and stay lingering a lot longer.


  
Another favourite Christmas scent is Christmas cookie...it smells delicious, makes you want to eat it all up. I don't know if you remember, but it smells like the cup cake dolls, that you used to get years ago as children, so it brings back great memories

Candles that I love to burn all winter and not just at Christmas, are warm and spicy ones, I don't like anything to citrus, so anything with vanilla tones are perfect.  One candle that is so yummy is, Snow in Love, it's a beautiful warm scent and very romantic, I actually got bought this one as an engagement present, so I love burning it when I have a cosy night in with my fiance.  






My last must have wintry scent is Cranberry Ice.  I love the smell of berries and cranberries and a lot of sweet smells, so this one is ideal after the Christmas period for a sweet, warm scent to spend those cold nights in.
