Thanks to whoever put the idea of white chocolate mint into my head (Claire i think), I'm burning it in the kitchen at the moment and it is gorgeous

For tea lights I just use Ikea ones 100 for 2 pounds, they last a couple of evenings.

LOL - It was me, I had posted a few weeks ago that I was burning it. I've run out now.

It is a nice one.

How long do they burn for? Just Candles do a bag of 50 for £8.99 and they burn for 8 hours. These are the ones I use.

They say 6-7 hours but I think they probably go longer than that, most of the Yankee stuff seems to exceed the expectations!

I have nearly finished my Starfruit and Orange one, it's lasted about a month for a large jar, started to tunnel though so I used an illumalid on it and it repaired it's self! I was very pleased as I love this one lots! the only trouble with finishing them off so quick is that I have to decided on a new one now!

The illumalids are really good. I have burnt my canary island banana loads and the illumalid has really helped me get the most out of it. That is nearly gone now but it has burnt for hours. I might be needing a new one soon - island guava!

I tried my tart burner yesterday and the scent around the room is much stronger than the votives imo.

So i bought loads of different tarts and i cant wait to try them

I don't know if this has been mentioned, but just-candles.net have got a 3 for 2 offer on small jars (and some other offers). I've just ordered Pomegranate Cider, Juicy Watermelon and Mandarin Cranberry - I can't wait till they come

My order arrived yesterday. I haven't lit them yet, but they all smell lovely

I agree Tash - up until this thread started I only used the jars & votives but the tarts are so much stronger (and cheaper ).
