Woodwick candles are wonderfully scented candles that sound just like a crackling fire as they burn, and provide you with a delightful aroma. Better yet, the average Woodwick candle will last three times as long as a regular candle! These types of candles are found most often in country settings and country homes, and are most commonly found in “countryish” scents including sandalwood, pine, applewood and blackberry.

Woodwick candles are very appealing because of their unique scents, how long they last, the fact that they give off sounds similar to that of a crackling fire in a fireplace, and because their unique decor allows them to blend in beautifully with any styled room. A Woodwick candle is most often found in a country home, but can definitely hold its own in an office or modern styled house.

What can a Woodwick candle offer you? Benefits of owning Woodwick candles include:

• Having a candle that is made of organic wood and uses a natural, lead-free wick
• Being treated to the comforting sound of a crackling fire
• Owning a candle that lasts for a very long time
• Doing your part for the environment by having a type of candle that burns cleaner
• High quality ingredients mean that your Woodwick candles treat you to the best scents

Woodwick candles come in many different scents. For the holidays, stock up on Pure Vanilla, Almond Orange, Evergreen and Gingerbread. Christmas in particular means burning the beautiful Noel candle, which gives off a spicy scent that is a pleasant mixture of spruce, spiced berries and spicy cinnamon. For crisp autumn evenings, cuddle up with a blanket and be lulled by Woodwick candle scents including Pumpkin Butter, Spiced Plum, Fireside, Cinnamon Chai, Applewood and Caramel. Spring and summer seasons can be complemented with scents such as Cucumber, Cotton Flowers, Lemon Sage and Honeysuckle.

The beauty of a candle is that it works perfectly in any room of the house. A candle burning in the kitchen can help to mask strong odors and to soften up otherwise harsh surroundings. Enjoy your dinner over scented candlelight, by adding two or three Woodwick candles to your table. Woodwick candles are right at home on living room coffee tables and end tables — just add music, romance or a family activity. In the bathroom, a Woodwick candle scented in Linen, Lavender or Cotton Flowers can help you to unwind and relax in the bath or shower. Candles are certainly at home wherever you put them.

We headed on over to their site but their site is currently under construction – no worries though, you can still get their candles at a number of candle retailers including the following with their current prices (for comparisons) as of June ’09 for 22 oz. jar candles before tax and shipping:

• English Rose – $18.50 for 22 oz jar
• Old Prague Market – $18 for a large jar (we’re assuming it’s the 22 oz.)
• Candles Forever – $19.50 each or 17.50 each if you buy three or more
• On the Corner Candles – $18.50

By the way, their two wick (used to have three wicks) 22 oz. jar burns for 110-130 hours for a long lasting source of luxurious fragrance.

Travel Tins from Universol Aromas

One of my new favorite travel goodies is the tin candle.  If you get a strong scented one, you can transform your hotel room into a mini paradise away from home.

If you’re traveling during the holidays, you can burn Christmas scents like pine and cinnamon to create a festive yet hom-y feel.

Burn fresh, tropical scents to transform a drab hotel room into a invigorating environment.  Any of your favorite scents can help enhance your stay.  Just be sure to be safe and refrain from burning them if it is against the hotel rules.

As an added enhancement, try burning soy travel candles as an eco-friendly alternative to paraffin.

Looking to buy travel tin soy candles?  Check out the cute soy candle tins from these sites:

• Universol Aromas Soy Candle Co.

White Barn candles are sold at many Bath & Body Works stores and their candles are strong scented and come in a variety of fragrances.  They have had favorite scents like Blueberry Muffin, Fig, Vanilla Woods, Warm Apple Pie, Spice, Cookie, Peppermint, Tree, and Winterberry, but have also offered up unusual fragrances like their Buttered Mashed Potatoes candle!

White Barn is by Limited Brands, a company which offers several quality fragrance products by brands including Bath & Body Works, Victoria’s Secret, and C.O. Bigelow among others.

Unfortunately, White Barn candles are not as readily available as they used to be, so you may not find them in every Bath & Body Works store anymore.  However, Bath & Body Works still offers a host of strong scented quality candles, including other candles made by Limited Brands - so your quest for great candles won’t be wasted when you make a trip there!

Their collection of Monogrammed Soy Candles make the perfect gift. Each candle is hand poured in a soy wax blend, containing more then 70% soy, and is packaged to-go in a keepsake, monogrammed box. Each candle will burn for approximately 60 hours.

I’ve got my eye on the Monogram F, which is scented with a blend of fresh fig and thyme.

And the Monogram J, which is scented with a blend of jasmine and white lilies.

In all, there are 24 Momogammed candles to choose from, each featuring its own fragrance (there is no “X” or “Z”). Get yours here.

India Hicks first came on my radar when I started watching “Top Design” on Bravo last year. While her show hosting skills may be lacking, the woman certainly has a boatload of beauty and style.

So it only makes sense that when she teamed up with Crabtree & Evelyn, the result would be to die for.

The India Hicks Island Night Scented Candle (pictured above) is poured into indigo glass and wrapped in a bracelet of silvery coral and features the fragrant essence of a moonlit tropical garden. The candle measures 4 inches in height and 3 inches in width, burns for approximately 50 Hours, and costs $42. Buy it here.

Or how about this India Hicks Island Living Casuarina Scented Candle (pictured below) in a hand-crafted rattan basket that features 45 hours of burn time and costs $35. Buy it here.

For those on a budget, Crabtree & Evelyn also offers this Naturals Mint, Fennel & Ivy Candle (see below), which is crafted from non-toxic natural plant waxes and beeswax and features 45 hours of burn time. It’s not created by India Hicks, but it is on sale for $15 right now. Buy it here.

Color Changing Candle.net makes color changing candles either with a wick (that burn) or without (they can be turned “on” and “off”) that are LED (light emitting diode) battery operated. They also offer a patented process that can print any photo, picture or image in full color on a candle. Their color changing candles with full color photos printed on them are being used in the Vancouver 2010 Olympics.

The color changing candles contain LED chips embedded at the base of each candle. When the wick is lit, an optical sensor inside the candle relays a signal to the chip which in turn produces unique color changes within the candle every few seconds until the flame is blown out. Some candles have no wick, and continue to change color without ever burning or being used. Both types have seven color changes, plus all the shades in between.
