Winter Nights & Home Comforts

With Winter hanging over us still, the home comforts of the cold days make it feel better. Candles help. With the comfort, with the cosy vibe, with the ambience. I go through so many, because I really love that cosy feeling on the dark cold nights... and in a search for a decent size candle with a gorgeous scent that lasts a while I found the Primark range.
 
 
 
 
These candles are apx 6 inches wide with 3 wicks and the tin is decorated with a floral surface design. These would make for a lovely birthday present on a budget! At £3 who can complain?
 
 
 
 
This specific candle is scented Sweet Pineapple & Ginger, and I loooove this smell! Tangy citrus notes yet homely at the same time. If this isn't your thing, this is just 1 of a few scents in the tinned range. Burns up to 28 hours too, not that I've timed it myself but on of these can last me a good 2-3 weeks with a lot of constant burning time.
 
 
 

 
 
So for all the candle addicts out there who need a burning flame to accompany the cold nights, try out the Primark range to be kind on your bank balance.
 
 
 
 
 
Until next time...

Air Wick Sweet Peach Blossom Candle

Anyone who knows me knows that I am an absolute sucker for candles! There is just something about them that makes a space feel so cosy and relaxing. Today I seen these Air Wick candles on sale and thought I'd get one for my room... There was a lavender one too but I preffered the peach scent.
 
As you can see the candles come in a plastic box with pretty card packaging inside.
 
 
 
The centre section is a solid wax, 'typical' candle. The surrounding area is more of a jelly texture.
 
 
 
 
I am so happy I went with the scent as it just enveloped my room in sweet peach blossom loveliness! I had actually been feeling very exhausted and a little poorly so this was the perfect little remedy to lift me up.
 
 
 
 
If you have a minimal style like myself, the pop of orange is a perfect way to add colour to your room without it being a permanent fixture too.
 
 
 
 
The design of the glass is a really nice little feature. To add a little edge, they gave the rim a little angle. I really appreciate small design details that finish a product off!
 
 
I really am a self confessed candle addict so if you know of any candles/brands or your favourites you think I'd love then don't forget to comment so I can check them out...
 
Until next time.
