Christmas was the time of year that I first really fell in love with fragranced candles so festive scents always feel very magical for me! I love everything from powdered snowy scents & pine tree fresh, to sugared fruits and the sweet & spicy baking fragrances. I also enjoy collecting the Christmas accessories that are brought out to match the fragrances too. I think they are some of the most beautiful and normally include some kind of glitter and sparkle - bonus. Yankee Candle are my favourite brand for scented candles for their authentic and wide array of beautiful fragrances. Here is a selection of my absolute favourite Christmas candles & accessories that I will be enjoying this festive season!
Gingerbread LED Wax Tart Burner I got this beauty in a Yankee Candle sale in January for an absolute bargain of £12 and I've been itching for Christmas to arrive so I can finally display it! - note the light on the far left is actually red but for some reason came out yellow in these photos.
