More Yankee Loveliness!

Hi Lovelies!

    You should know me well enough by now to know that I am obsessed with Yankee Candles, so I'm pretty sure these pleasantly scented hauls will become a regular thing. 

I had to try the two Christmas scents that ever blogger/vlogger on the earth had mentioned this year, and I completely understand whey they were such a big hit. They smell amazing, although I have to say I do prefer the Christmas cookie. 

I also purchased 8 more of the wax tarts. I had bought 4 previously and didn't expect much from them. But using them in my burner proved me wrong. The smell literally fills the room!! I've decided now that I need a large pink sands and black cherry jar in my life. They're incredible! 

I decided that I should buy another burner to use as well, seeing as I had bought so many tarts. This one only cost me £5 and comes in several colours. The only downside to this one is the shape. The flat base makes it very difficult to removed the wax once it has been melted and solidified. My other one has a rounded bottom so the was just pops right out when I want to change scents. 

These glasses were the remains of my old Ikea candles. Once they had burned down, I placed them in a saucepan with boiling water, just full enough to reach the level of the wax inside. (Try not to get the water in the glass.) Once the wax had melted completely, I then poured it out into an old chinese takeaway pot, washed of course, and threw it away. To make sure there was no wax left of the glasses I then washed them in very hot water and left to dry. 

They are perfect for the sample size candles that I bought!

This is how I store my wax tarts. I never melt a whole one so they're going to last me a good while. I make sure the bags are labelled and then I keep them in a box with my tealights and a spare lighter. 

Are there any Yankee scents I should try?
