Keepers of the Light {my fave candles}

I L.O.V.E love candles! They add such a cozy, warm feeling to your house. Making it truly feel like home.

Every other summer our family spends a week at our favorite Utah lake. This small-town lake-community has some of my favorite shops! I always look forward to shopping and finding some amazing home decor. 

This past summer I came across the company A Cheerful Giver. I am now obsessed! Not only because their candles are redic, but because they serve an awesome mission! They supply special-needs adults with jobs! 

I just ran out of all of my candles and waxes I purchased last August, so I hopped online today and placed another order for their Keepers of the Light candles.

This wax warmer is a big big love of mine! I love that I don't have to worry about a flame around my very curios littles, and I can leave it on 24/7. Plus the top comes off, so changing out the wax is super easy. I just take it off and pop it in the freezer for a few minutes, the wax hardens and falls right out. 



We have a decent size basement, its a little over 1000 sq feet. It tends to get kinda stinky and stale smelling down there in the winter months. I try to open the windows but then it is freeeezing! So I have this warmer down there and put two of the wax pods in at a time.


I purchased the fragrance melts in Praline Caramel Sticky Buns. They are $3.50 for a box of 6 melts. I change them out every week or so, so for a little more than $1 a week my basement smells amazing! 

I also purchased a large candle in this scent back in August, as well as a large Balsam Fir for Christmas.  Because it is sooo dry here in Colorado we use an artificial Christmas tree. This candle made our house smell just like the real deal!

I am so excited to get my new order in the mail, and I had to share with you, because these candles really are the best! 

These are the scents I ordered today:
 {Most of them are for my burner (best way to try out a scent!) and some are jar candles in various sizes.}

Butter Maple Toddy
Caramel Apple with Nuts
Hot Buttered Rum
Juicy Apple
Snickerdoodle
Papa's Pumpkin Pie
Almond Butter Pound Cake
Caramelized Creme Brulee

Eeeek! Can't wait. :)

Now, is anybody else hungry after reading all those names?!?!
