It's time to get your house ready for the holidays! The best Xmas candle I have found so far is this Thymes Frasier Fir. Buy one for yourself to start the season and a few for gifts for friends. Makes a great gift for a mother-in-law or co-worker. Order on Amazon below.

It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas!
This is my favorite holiday candle. It smells just like a Xmas tree. A must have if you get an artificial tree. Makes a great hostess gift, co-worker gift, in-law gift, anyone gift!
I get mine out every year the day after Thanksgiving when I start playing the Christmas carols.
new candle: celery thyme
Three hours before a party, my house had a strange mysterious smell. I opened all the windows and took out the garbage....but I panicked & decided I needed an amazing candle just in case.
Sometimes a problem turns out to be a gift.....in my frenzy, I splurged on a nice candle by Lafco, which received so many compliments at the party!
I chose the "Dining Room" candle, but placed it near my front door. This scent "Celery Thyme" is a light, fresh green scent with crisp celery, white florals, and a touch of thyme. The box states 90 hour burn time, which appears to be true. It was lit for 6 hours & still looks new.
This would make a lovely gift for a housewarming, Mother's Day, or birthday. For everyone who was asking me "what is that wonderful smell?"---this is it!
