    This might sound odd, but my BBW candle collection is a scent memory scrapbook of my last decade. It’s been such a fun hobby. The thrill of coupons in the mail, Semi Annual Sales, doing “UA-cam research” in preparation for Candle Day, and buying extras to hand to my grown children when they leave from an impromptu visit. When I light my older candles, I’m reminded of happy memories of those seasons. I light a different candle every morning while the coffee brews, and blow it out a couple hours later. Then select a different candle to enjoy a couple hours in the evening. Like you said, it’s really not that expensive, but has been judged critically by my extended family. Thank you, Bren for all the years of your UA-cam posts, which has added so much to the joy of my hobby. Love your personality and real-ness!

No judgement though-I’m a collector myself but I’ve been candle collecting hard for about 3-4 years (although I’ve always been into candles-and have been burning them since I was a teenager) I just found myself collecting more seriously the last few years…I just started looking into all these candle communities the past month or so…this is so cool to see actual collections!

    I pretty much only have Blueberry Twist as a "vintage" candle. The rest are all the most recent version of the candles I like, and all together with my BBW, Yankee, Village, Kringle, Homeworx, etc, I think my total is around 140. You've got a much more extensive collection. Props for that! Lol Truthfully, though, I remember the days where I had 4 candles, and thought...why would I need more than that? 2 years later, here I am...

    I burn my candles every day so I don’t ever have a ton to store. Typically only a handful on standby lol 😆
    Really pretty candle collection and organization!
    Lol I like your comparison to your friend’s horse which is more than a hobby, it’s a sport & also a horse is a living animal so requires much more care. I understand what you’re getting at. Just teasing you!
    My favorite candle is the signature Anthropologie scent, “Volcano” by Capri Blue. I also really love Voluspa candles which are also available at Anthropologie but I first discovered them at Nordstrom. The rose scents are great but my favorite is Santiago Huckleberry if you want a new one to try out!
    B&BW Island Margarita & the Teakwood scents always make me happy!
    Glad I found your video 👍

    • @mcgregorjt
      @mcgregorjt 3 роки тому +10

      Yeah...good question. I've seen videos of candle people online with items from like 2012 they still burn. Essential carrier oils usually last 2-3yrs however some up to 15. Google says 1-4 mths however I think that is companies trying to get you to buy more. You also have to look at the ingredients to make the candle, storage and how long you burn and how you put out the flame. You can also add scent back to candles if it lost it too so don't throw it out. Melt it down and make a new candle.

    The chalkboard design on this years Vanilla Pumpkin Marshmallow and Pumpkin Apple were adorable. 2018 Christmas in all forms will forever be with me. Probably cause that's when I really got into them and realized candles can smell good and not just be an air freshener scent. One positive of the candles this winter (that I had) is that the wicks were so strong they had to be trimmed instead of drowning.
    I'm a little b*tthurt that Peppermint Marshmallow wasn't out in 3-wick and I will stock up whenever it comes back. Give me the spray at least. I don't ask for much and find pleasure in some of the simplest things, but I will forever crave that scent. So many good scents that didn't come back this year or last year. Banana Cabana was my summer jam and Bamboo was good for Spring.
