BIG OR small CANDLE?

LARGE CANDLE OR SMALL CANDLE?

You have found the scent you love!  Yes!  This is the one you are buying…and then…the dilemma:  Do you purchase the small candle or the large candle?

Here’s the deal Lucille: The SIZE OF THE CANDLE YOU PURCHASE SHOULD BE DETERMINED BY WHERE YOU ARE GOING TO PLACE YOUR NEW CANDLE        

WHAT?

Absolutely.

If you are purchasing a candle to try a new brand or scent, sure, purchase the small one. 

If a new candle is going to be one of your “life” scents forever and ever, the size of the candle should be a placement decision and not a money decision.  Imagine trying to scent a large room with a tealight candle; of course, this isn’t feasible.  A tealight candle may scent a closed shoebox (please don’t try this), but a tealight won’t scent a small room.  A small candle won’t scent a large room.  So, you see?  It is proportional.

The  Lowdown: 

  • Smaller candles are excellent for trying new brands or scents. However, if you put a small candle in a large room, you will not be getting the true effect of your purchase.
  • If you purchase a smaller candle, put it in a small room such as a bathroom or small bedroom to see if you like the scent and the burn. Chances are, if you put the smaller candle in a large room, you may only smell the fragrance occasionally or if you walk by.
  • LARGER, MULTIPLE-WICKED CANDLES ARE FOR FILLING LARGER SPACES.
  • Smaller candles WILL NOT fill large rooms.

 

In Summary:  LARGE ROOM = LARGE (Multiple-Wick) CANDLE,  SMALL ROOM = SMALL CANDLE

Happy Burning!

Enjoy the journey & hold each other tight!
