The Scents & Smells of Christmas

Still in rough draft form, I was working on this for the blog and had it scheduled to post for Christmas. Just a little something for y'all this Christmas Eve.

The scents and smells of Christmas are some of the best things about the holiday season. Here are a couple of favorites of mine.

I've been making beeswax ornaments since earlier this summer. Made with only beeswax and then rubbed with cinnamon, they smell heavenly, although in my opinion, the beeswax scent is stronger than that of the cinnamon.

I sent one to all my children, their spouses, and grands for Christmas.


Sarah sent me a photo of hers hanging on her tree. 


Sarah, Jessica, Lisa, and I all love Yankee Candle's Christmas Wreath. It smells just like a freshly cut Christmas tree. Sadly, the company discontinued it a few years ago.


Antique Candle Company's Tree Farm also smells much like a Christmas tree, but it costs almost twice as much as a Yankee Candle product.

I finally caved and bought one which I am burning judiciously so it will last throughout the holiday. 

No regrets - it smells wonderful.
