My View On Candle Burning

First of all, I love burning scented candles. I have even made my own with fragrances
I prefer but once I tried the candles that follow, making my own was a thing of the past.

If you hate the black soot and smoke when you burn a scented candle, then you have found
the right place to be.

When I received my first order from http://www.RelaxWithBetsy.com I got really excited because I could smell the candle even before I opened the box. I sat my candle on the table for a few days and thoroughly enjoyed the scent even before I burned the candle.

When I finally lit the candle, I was amazed at the wonderful soft aroma and the way the candle burned so even! I couldn't wait to see how they cleaned up with soap and water, so I dipped some wax on the kitchen counter and was amazed at how easy it washed off. I kept the wicks trimmed and when that jar was burned to bottom, I couldn't believe I was still enjoying that wonderful aroma and that the jar was not black.

I removed the wax from the jar, took out the remainder of the wick and put the wax in a simmer pot to continue enjoying the wonderful aroma. ( Nothing gets thrown away. I even clean out the jars and take them to the local thrift store.) Not to mention the fact that I could burn these candles without getting headaches, as I have environmental allergies. I love candles, but was never able to really enjoy them - even when I made my own -until now. Needless to say, I was hooked.

I've have tried other "soy" and other alternative candles. The results are not the same. Most of the votives I've purchased start to crumble before I even get them home. The fragrance doesn't last to the end of the candle. And the aromas are not as soft and enjoyable.

It is my opinion that this candle is of the highest quality, best performing candle in the world.
The wax is a blend of all-natural renewable materials with approximately 10% fragrance.

Thanks for reading my blog.
