Just a quick post today on one of my favorite things – candles.
I try different brands all the time, but one of the brands I tend to go back to often is Slatkin & Co. They are relatively inexpensive as candles go and on a three wick candle that weighs in at 14.5 oz, you will get approximately 30 – 45 hours of burn time.
These candles have a high concentration of fragrance oils and burn relatively clean, which, in my opinion, is a huge plus.
About Slatkin & Co.
Founded in 1993, Slatkin & Co. quickly established itself as the leading home fragrance brand in premier specialty stores around the world. Their home fragrances have always provided wonderful ways to scent your home. The company is celebrated for its authentic and sophisticated scents as well as celebrity-inspired collections that reflect figures from rock ‘n’ roll to royalty. Developed by renowned “nose” Harry Slatkin and his master perfumers, Slatkin & Co. fragrances infuse versatile scents into any room. Never overpowering, they simply enhance the beauty of one’s home.
One of the reasons I enjoy these candles so much is because I am extremely sensitive to perfumes which limits what scents I can use in my home. I find that with Slatkin I have a larger selection of candles that do not send my allergies into high gear. This is great because I love to burn candles especially in the Fall and Winter.
Here are some burning tips:
- Trim the candle’s wick(s) to 1/4” before lighting as this will allow for optimum burn.
- Burn candles three to four hours at a time for optimum burn time.
- Do not blow candle out, just use cover and done.
- Cool candle completely before relighting.
You can decorate with candles and it is relatively inexpensive. If you have a wood burning fireplace, put numerous candles in it for a Summer look. You can put two or three candles in a bowl on an enclosed porch or lanai and scatter some sea shells around the bowl. Candles are always pretty in a bathroom.
Use your imagination and enjoy.
