Egluntyne Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 I've developed a real thing about these Yankee Candle thingumybob whatsists. Last week I bought a tart burner and a selection of tarts. The house smelt divine all weekend. Today I was a woman on a mission, doing specific bits of Christmas Shopping in Sheffield City Centre. We have a divine quirky family owned department store called Atkinsons....you either love it or hate it.....guess which camp I'm in .......and they suddenly have a huge Yankee Candle Section. There were sooooo many scents and burners etc that I found it hard to chose. The tarts were 95p each the samplers £1.60...buy 3 and get 15% off....buy 4 and get a 5th free. I've got a Baby Powder one going at the mo. It's lovely. I'll be going back next week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 I might pop down to Bob Carolgees candle shop and get a cple of samplers to get the homestead smelling Christmasy. Bob's shop is in a craft centre so there's other shops to see. I like the 2nd hand book shop there too might go t'row, depends on the weather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, P, you have to get the cinnamon stick one, absolutely divine, and the Christmas cookie one smells like melting white chocolate , so perfect for the kitchen, then you need a nice pine one for the room with your Christmas tree in!

Couperwife Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 I've got a mistletoe gel car thingy in my car ( ) it smells lovely not too keen on the cookie smelling ones, but I have only smelt the candle, not the actually burning candle (does that actually make sense???) cathy x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorted just got back, said hi to Bob who gave us some advice about getting the most out of our candles Bought a medium sized 'Christmas Wish' for my mum to go with her Molton Brown stuff, smells divine, all vanilla-ish, mmmmmmm Bought a medium 'Mulled Wine' for myself and 4 samplers; 2 'berry tangerine' and 2 'holiday sage'. I could have gone mad and bought loads but I was a good girl These better be good cos I only bought them after you lot biggin' 'em up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 I've got a "Midnight Cove" sampler on the go at the mo. Very nice...not particularly seasonal though. I had a "Christmas Cookie" one yesterday. It smelled like white Chocolate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
