The Last Weekly Home Fragrance Roundup of 2024 (with Alf!)

[@candlekrazedgirlie1037]

I love you and your amazing videos so much! Thanks for ending such a wonderful fragrance year with us! 😘 can’t wait to see you in the spring!

Thanks for all your weekly videos, you are so generous in sharing your current burns/melts/candle lamps, it always inspires me even though I can't do that since my house is smaller and I'm one person. I have been burning Vintage Pomander alongside Kringle pine scents like Christmas Stroll and Christmas, and the pomander scent is so complementary and adds a warmth. I wanted to report that you inspired me to put up a tree and decorate this year. I couldn't do it last year, the first Christmas without my husband and both of my parents, but I was ok this year and in fact, felt very positive and gemutlich. I have a white tree which is really beautiful and I love it, so happy memories. This is a big step. Wishing you and your family as well as Alf and Penny a very happy 2025, all good things your way.

Melanie, great video. I, too, just finished up a BBW Sweet Cranberry Pie today! The vessel was beautiful as it burned down which was a nice surprise. I think I have one more of this fragrance tucked away, hopefully I do because I really enjoyed it. So glad you had a peaceful and laid-back holiday with your Mom and family. It is hard to believe that 2024 is coming to an end!

Happy new year, Melanie!

I am with you Melanie the holiday season is so short to get thru our holiday scents and enjoying our holiday decorations. I usually carry my scents thru January so I am not carrying over to the next year as well.

Enjoyed a quiet, drama-free Christmas. 😊 (Oven has been broken; holiday meals & baked treats are delayed-maybe to next year.) Burns for Christmas week: Kringle Aurum & Evergreen, Tinsel Thyme, Ginger Snow Angel (2022 Returning Favorite), Reserve Orange, and Tea Time. (I ordered more Cypress & Cinnamon and Frosted Spice to continue enjoying for Winter home fragrance.) Also enjoying BBW Cinnamon Spiced Vanilla, White Pumpkin, & beloved Cozy Sunday Night. I’m researching other soy candles made in USA that aren’t overpriced & low performers. I’ll share if I find anything helpful. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Warm wishes for a happy & healthy New Year! 🎆R

Happy soon to be New Year to you and the family my friend! I’m not a fan of pecan pie either but if Craig loves them, he should get one for the season! 😉 Maybe just one of those mini pies you can get at the store at least. 😂 I cracked and shopped the Kringle sale but I won’t be doing BBW SAS and I’m back on candle buying restriction in 2025. I definitely have enough to get me through for a good long while.

I'm happy to hear you had a nice Christmas, and I hope your mom is feeling better and is recovering nicely. Ours was mellow, too, other than at midnight Christmas Eve a drunk girl came waking into our house (church house, lol) crying and carrying on thinking we were a functioning church. She was lost, so my husband and I walked her home 😂. My husband says "you probably forgot to lock the door after getting a box of candles" psshh whatever...(he's probably not wrong) 😂

I’m so glad you had a great holiday, I plan on lighting both of my vintage pomanders on New Year’s Day and that champagne fragrance that just came out for Kringle in my bedroom. Starting the new year with some fresh burns, I’ve been burning through so many candles that have been half burned in my collection that are driving me crazy because I hate coming into the new year with already burned candles. That sort of one of my goals for this year.Caramel Sundays is having a restock on January 26, and there are some fragrances that sound amazing. I’ll be participating. You should definitely check them out.

I was so confused. Pretty sure "pomanders" was changed to "palm commanders" on you lol. I just googled what a palm commander was. 🤣🤣

[@dcordero5950]

I was burning Sleigh Ride from Homeworx on Christmas Eve and day and the burn was good but it was sooooo light! Now I’m burning Crushed Candy Cane from BBW and it’s soo good!

[@kawaiiwitchbaby]

excited to see your candle/home fragrance budget video! I don't have a set $$$ but I probably should... that would probably help weed out the random things we toss into our cart over the tried and true scents we love. My last candle purchase was last winter but that doesn't mean the scentsy and some vendor wax have stopped but I did a better job than the year prior. I love Mandarin moon - I hate that I didn't club that one. I never tried toasted apple butter - sounds yummy! Hope you feel 100% soon. Last christmas I was sick as a dog and I was miserable for about a whole week.

[@betsybabf748]

I'm with you! The calmer holidays are the best. My good friend prefers light candles, thinking most are too overwhelming. If I feel a candle is a dud, I let her know because she'll probably like it. I either take down Christmas on New Year's Day or Little Christmas (Jan 6). It depends on my mood, but it must be one of those days. Cinnamon Spiced Vanilla was Cinnamon Sugared Donut. I still always call it that. I hate change lol. Actually the hearth candles at $250 are financially worth it. If getting 4 seasons out of one, burning 1/4 a year, that's just a bit over $60 a season. A small one wick Nest which lasts only like a week is $50. Enjoy your weekend!

Scentsy merry wonderland was almost headache inducing for me. It was way too sting for the first few hours. I still have a BBW cranberry pure candle so I wonder how strong it is now. I’ll have to try it soon. I’m also continuing my wax and candle low buy next year.

[@mrs.i.one12]

My husband loves pecan pie too. I just don’t see the appeal. I agree, it looks gross. But my husband just gobbles them up. At least he knows by now to not offer me any 😂

[@BarbB_in_TN]

Saying this in a kind way😊, I know that it is a lot of work, but it is so hard to go back and find a candle that you were speaking of that I am interested in later in the video. It would be nice to have the candles that you speak of labeled somewhere by name and brand so we could refer back and hopefully find what we’re looking for if you don’t wish to link the specific candles(which I understand to be a bit of trouble for you)

[@careyloveslipstick525]

Vintage pomander with Scentsy Spiced Holiday Citrus 🤌🏻🤌🏻❤ were perfect together. I added it to my club. Happy New Year!
