What is everyone burning?

I am going to light Harvest when I get back from running some errands.
Yesterday I had Spiced Pumpkin going.....still one of my all time favorites.

Has anyone tried any of the new holiday scents?
Christmas Cupcake, Christmas tree, Christmas at the Beach, Mountain Pine, North Pole, Snow Berry, Welcome Christmas.
A lot seem familiar, but with new names.

I have autumn leaves going in the living room and fall harvest in the kitchen. Smells wonderful.

 

[Meriweather]

Don't forget to get me your info, Trish

 

[JLitfin]

I've been burning Harvest

I'm burning ginger bread at the moment, it reminds me of the Grand Floridian at Christmas!!

I was burning a Macintosh the other day--smelled great.

I bought some of the new scents the other day, haven't burned them yet.

Only a couple of days left for sign-ups
Keep those names coming!!

Do you guys burn your jar candles or do you use a candle warmer? I really love my candle warmers, I can leave them on for a while without worrying about them. (I leave them on when I'm in the house & awake, shut them off when I leave or go to bed.)

I ordered a tart warmer from Lakeside Collection. But they just emailed me, they are out of stock. I guess I need to get one from YC.

 

[Meriweather]

I burn my candles.....I wonder if the fragrance lasts as long with one as the other.
I am so used to having something burning, I don't forget to blow it out.
DD just got a YC tart burner at Ross for $3!! Spring theme, but it works.

 

[Missy1961]

I wonder that too. I got into the habit of a candle warmer when my nieces were younger. That way, I could leave it on & not worry about the girls touching a flame.

I don't have a Ross near by, but I do have TJ Maxx--maybe I'll look there & see if I can get one. I bought all those new tarts & I need a way to use them!

 

[JLitfin]

I do both, I have a couple of candles that I use my candle warmer for and several that I burn. I started using the candle warmer so I wouldn't have an open flame. Last year when I had company over and we were sitting on the porch, my smoke alarm went off, came inside and I had a small candle fire. I had a candle topper with a hole for the flame on my candle which got so hot that it caught fire. I was very lucky that everything was ok with no damage except for cleaning the smuck from the smoke. Thank goodness for smoke detectors or we could of had a full house fire, so I'll use my warmers more than the open flame.

I have also gotten plug in fresheners at Ross for less than 1/2 price.
DD used a candle warmer in her classroom.


I am burning a Fall Festival votive right now.
Odd.....I can never smell the votives very well. Guess I just love my jars.

Wow! that would have been horrible, thank goodness you were nearby.

And Nancy, I love jars too--even the little ones just pack a bigger punch.

 

[Meriweather]

The housewarmer jars have more oils in them.
I have quite a collection.....just most are in AZ.
Maybe 50 of them
And now, I order more for here
