Today’s post is a bit different! I was sitting in my kitchen staring at my favorite candle trying to think of ideas for blog posts. As I was staring at the flames, I realized I love hearing people’s recommendations for things like candles, recipes, home decor, etc., so why not add my own recommendations!? Welcome to the first post on my Lifestyle section.
One of my favorite things, whether I’m reading a book, blogging, or cleaning around the house, is to light a candle. It keeps me calm and helps me further enjoy whatever activity I’m doing. Here are my top 3 candles for the summer season, all of which are 3-wick candles from Bath and Body Works.
The first candle I love is called Champagne Toast. This one is very sweet and fruity, but not in a sickly-sweet type of way. Picture yourself sitting in a bubble bath with a glass of champagne. That is what this candle smells like. It is really strong and the scent lasts a long time.
The next candle that I have been loving is called Mahogany Teakwood. This one smells like men’s cologne, but one that you would not get sick of. It doesn’t have too strong of a “wood” smell, but it definitely is more of a stereotypical “gender neutral” scent. If the joy you have after a summer bonfire eating s’mores had a smell, this would be it. It’s very cozy and a great nighttime scent.
Lastly, I love the scent called Eucalyptus Mint. I have never smelled anything more calming in my life. It is clean and fresh but has a touch of sweetness. This is the candle I light when I’m anxious or need to be productive because it instantly calms me down. Imagine sitting on a porch that overlooks the beach reading your favorite book with a cup of peppermint tea. That is what this smells like.
Each of these candles are wins in my book! There are constantly sales on Bath and Body Works and you can on average get each candle for about $15. I hope this helped and that you understand my weird imagery (lol). Enjoy a beautiful smelling home!
