Christmas Candles
Oh dear, I’ve got a post with the word “Christmas” in the title and it’s still only November! To be fair, candles are not solely a Christmas thing for me. I was never particularly interested in them for a long time, but this winter I’ve suddenly started using lots! I’m a nostalgic for things like real paper books and physical music collections (see this post for more!) so candles seem to fit in with that well. I love the warm, flickering light they give off, and I choose lots of scented ones which make my bedroom smell wonderful! I recently picked up some more festive scents, among others.
I usually have 3 candles in my room, in the various holders I have. The first is this little white one, given to me as a gift, which makes patterns when the light shines through the holes. It’s best suited to tea lights, and I usually just go with white, unscented ones, as they burn out so quickly that I can’t spend loads on nice scented ones all the time. However, I was looking at the candles in Primark and decided to get these Vanilla & Violet scented purple ones, since they were pretty cheap, and I thought I’d treat myself to some more nice scents for around Christmas time.
