Christmas Memories – A Festive Yankee Candle

I absolutely love Yankee candles and was desperate to treat myself to one after visiting a friends last weekend. A quick scan online showed me that the Christmas Memories Yankee candle is a huge hit. I’d never actually smelt this one before so I was trusting the online reviews!

I ordered my Yankee candle from Amazon for a really good price, you can still get them here:

The price has actually dropped since I ordered mine! I have a free trial of Amazon Prime at the moment so got next day delivery free of charge.

The candle arrived well-packaged and I was desperate to try it! I’ve been suffering with a migraine the last few days though so I reluctantly kept the lid on until the migraine had passed. Strong smells can escalate my migraines once they’ve kicked in.

So, this morning, we lit the candle for the first time. I’d just got back in from doing the HUGE Christmas food shop so I was feeling festive! Within minutes, the Christmas Memories had filled downstairs with the scent of cinammon and Christmas baking. It’s such a wonderful smell!

I can’t wait to light this again tonight, curled up next to the Christmas tree with a warm mince pie.

It’s such a magical time of year and it’s the sounds and smells that make that little difference.

Here it is again, sat pride of place on our fireplace! Happy Christmas!
