Crafting Your Candle Collection

Candles are one of the most popular gifts and decorations for all times of the year. Here’s your go-to guide to help complete your candle collection.


Favorite Places to Find Candles

My friends and I rarely pass the candle aisle while shopping without stopping to smell each one. We almost always walk away with one or two more to add to our collection. Some of our favorite places to shop for candles are Target, Bath & Body Works, and the local Auburn Candle Company. All of which have a great array of scents and styles.


What’s Your Favorite Scent?

I personally prefer clean, floral scents, opposed to my roommates who gravitate to the sweet and flavorful ones. No matter your favorite scent, you are sure to find a candle you will fall in love with.

Can’t Find One You Like?

If you can’t find one you like, you can always make one! The Auburn Candle Company has “create your own candles” where you select three different scents and the jar of your choice for your own unique candle. This is a great way to learn about candles and it may help you discover exactly what scents you prefer.
