Lately I've been obsessed with finding things to decorate my room with. At the moment its a very girly yet sophisticated pastel pink with a cornflour blue accent wall, I adore these two colours together, I find them really calming after a long day of work or shopping!
To give my room an even more sophisticated, almost grown up look I've been looking around for little decorative pieces, i.e vases, photo frames etc.
I was looking at candles and naturally I went straight to Yankee candles, EVERYONE loves Yankees! Luckily they had and offer on: Medium 2 wick tumbler candles for £10. It was exactly what I was looking for, I love 2 wick candles. They did have a limited selection (about 20 candles) so there wasn't heaps to choose from. I was looking for spring time scents, floral, fruity, ocean like; I love matching scents to the current season.
I came across 2 scent's that I thought would be really interesting and fit perfectly with what 'should' be spring/summer.
This first candle I got was 'Vanilla Lime'. It's a perfectly balanced mix of the two flavours so it doesn't smell sour or cake like. The perfect amount of citrus. Also vanilla is one of my all time favourite scents for the home.
The second, and probably my favourite scent is the 'Waikiki Melon' flavour. Oh my goodness, I absolutely detest eating melon so I was a bit sceptical about this candle but as soon as I took my first sniff I fell in love. Probably the sweetest melon scent. Also has this slight floral undertone to it. Vibrant and energising, the best smell to come home to.
What I love about Yankee candles is that they're not overpowering, the burn well (you don't get the dip in the middle where most the candle is left of the sides) and they last pretty long. Although they are a little pricey I think they're great value for money!
I've been alternating scents each day so they both get a fair use.
I really want to smell the 'Pineapple Cilantro' scent that Yankee do, I can imagine it being almost edible.
What scents do you like to burn in your room or home?
Hope your boudoirs smell amazing like mine! x
