Title: Do you burn candles?
Post by: Nancy5 on October 06, 2016, 07:40:56 pm
I love candles and usually have at least one burning.  I especially love the ones that you can hear crackling.

I don't use candles very often, I would also say I burn them more in the winter as well!

I love candles, but rarely use them. I have 3 cats and always worry they might knock them over or something.

Burning several candles of different scents at the same time smells great.  I love burning candles.  The ambience increases.

Yes, I love candles and this year I did something I never said I'd do.....buy an expensive candle...but I said "Hey, you only live once. Just go for it". So I bought a Yankee candle (that was ON SALE of course) last month in the scent Summer Scoop and I wasn't impressed. It smelled good, but it didn't have much throw. However I will be purchasing some others to see if I can find some with a stronger scent.

I have not burned a candle in a long time. I really should do that sometime soon! My favorite scents are probably lavender and vanilla :)

I just bought a set of those led fake candles at Sam's Club, so now I can have "candles" burning all the time.   The remote control aspect of the candles is awesome, they turn on at the same time every day and turn off after 6 hours.   

I burn the wax candle scents in a warmer, so I get the scents that way. :)

Although I burn candles year round I would have to say I burn them more in the winter. I must be trying to get that cozy feeling lol

I love burning candles.  I burn them more in the cooler weather than in the warmer weather.  They help heat up the house in addition to making it smell better.

I occasionally burn candles because I love them, but most of the time I use the wax blocks on my warmer.  I have quite a few different fragrances and they are a little safer than a burning candle.

I love candles but don't usually burn them because unless they are the soy ones that aren't as bad for you to breath.  I bought three of them during the recent hurricane and they were almost 13$ a piece yikes but they were pretty big and they still seem to have a lot of burning life left to them.  And they smelled really good

We have candles for emergency use. I had cats and could only set them in the sinks for far thay cats would get into them.

I do not like to burn candles.  I prefer the Scentsy type of air  fresheners over a lit candle.

I think I am just overly nervous about the lighted candle and potential fire.

I'm not a candle burner, but I always have them on hand just in case the light goes out or something.

Not often as the scents set me off and i can't breath as well. But the main thing is  if left unattended they could cause a fire.  too many houses have burned down and or people die because them. If and when i would use one it would be in a jar or  something  holding it secure.  But most of them are so strong it is hard to breath with them

YES! I love burning candles, and my most favorite store is Yankee Candle! I love to burn in season, meaning that I will only burn fall candles in fall, Christmas candles at Christmas, etc. Right now, I have a tealight burning that is the scent of "Autumn Leaves". I also enjoy using the wax tart burners, and being able to sample the different tarts they offer.

Yes, when the cats are sleeping, haha.  :cat: I have an eight month old kitten that's very energetic and rambunctious, and he'd get hurt on them. When it's a quiet, slow day I'll have one burning. I used to do my work online with one burning beside me. I love candles, especially the ones they make around autumn.  :turkey:

Only when the power is out in my house. Use it to light up the house at night, but now I have light lantern.

I don't burn candles because I'm afraid something would happen to cause a fire.  The only time I do it is when we have a power outage.
