I am addicted to Yankee Candle Tarts

[Aurora63]

I use them every day. I go through at least 10 tea lights a week. I'm trying to quit, but they just smell soo good. I'm hopelessly addicted.

Is there a support group for someone like me?

I was until I discovered the oils you burn from Body Shop. They smell wonderful .

 

[Tigger&Belle]

Tarts Anonymous, maybe?

Tarts Anonymous, maybe?

Yep, that's the one. I need to start the TA 12 step program.

So I've done step 1, admitting there is a problem. What's next? Going out to buy more tarts, right?

I used to belong to that group but it wasn't about candles.

Nope... go out and buy a "Crock Pot" potpourri cooker... you'll never need another tealight again. Looks just like a big crock pot, but its a tiny one... just plug it in!!

My last post got lost

You have to get the plug in warmer. They work wonderful without actually burning a candle. When I was selling my house everyone that came in commented on how good it smelled. I used one of the strawberry ones.

Sorry if it's a double post, but I don't know what happened to the first one.

I love mine! I haven't burned candles since I got mine for Christmas last year.

Have you tried the Peppermint Cocoa? I put that one in last night. OMG, it smells like Andes Candies.

Ocean Water... my absolute favorite. Burned (well, melted) that one, and sold my house in no time. I like the new Holiday Sage, but haven't bought any yet.

The best part of the tart is that it's rather cheap

 

[Aurora63]

Ah yes, the plug in ones...I've seen those...that will be next. Thanks kiki and mickey.

Silly, right now I am melting Pumpkin Pie in the living room and Buttercream in the bathroom. Haven't seen Peppermint Cocoa before. I'll try it next time. That is if I can get off the Pumpkin Pie (it smells sooo good!)

You all are enablers!!! You should be ashamed of yourselves!

Autumn Wreath is another good one, if you like the cinnamon smell.

I pour it out while it's still melted. I pour it into a plastic container until it cools off. It's great because you can change the scents as often as you want. I usually change mine about once/week.

I'm addicted to their jar candles. I've heard I need to try the tarts but haven't yet.

I am a Tart Addict... Storm Watch in the bedroom. Home Sweet Home in the living room.

I also have a mini crockpot potpourri warmer, but I've only ever used potpourri in it. Never occurred to me to use TARTS! You really put Yankee Candle tarts in it? How many? I would think one wouldn't really be enough? I have the Rival brand one... and it doesn't overheat them? Hmmm.... This might be a new obsession...

I also have a plug in candle melter, where you put the jar in and it melts it down instead of burning it. Votive size, so it melts pretty quickly! Not as strong a scent as burning a TART, but nice.

I actually use the votives in my potpourri crockpot. I just take the wick out when the candle melts...and I only put one in. I also have the Rival brand. It hasn't overheated so far. Knock on wood.

I LOVE the tarts! And the electric warmers are awesome. I'm currently burning Granny Smith in my office and Carribean Fruit is in the front of the house.

Cool! I'll have to try it!!!
