There’s nothing more relaxing than sitting in your most comfortable chair, reading and book and inhaling the scent of your favorite candle. The first thing I do when I get home is light one of my vanilla soy jar candles. The soft vanilla scent reminds me of my childhood, when I would help my mom bake cookies in the kitchen.

In addition to the good memories and relaxation, jar candles are nice because they don’t need to be blown out. All you have to do to staunch the flame is secure the top. This prevents annoying smoke from filling the room and wax spatters.
