I went to a friend of a friend’s store opening the other night. The store sells cute vintage housewares and local artist gifts. I wanted to show my support so I bought a candle that I wouldn’t ordinarily buy. It was $28 – eek – but it smelled like Christmas and I couldn’t resist. It’s the Roland Pine candle from The Soap and Paper Factory. It smells just like a Christmas tree!

Here are my other favorite holiday candles I wish I could splurge on:

The Russian Fir tree is incredibly fragrant …When fir needles are rubbed together, the strong scent is reminiscent of bitter orange.  This scent is a joyful and nostalgic celebration of the season and a must for everyone. (Also, just FYI, my favorite candle of all time is made my Pacifica called “Tahitian Gardenia.”)
