Re: How do you make YOUR home smell good?

I love to wash the floor with Pine Sol...it smells so good. Other than that, I'm a candle freak, so I have plates of candles on my table. Yankee candle has a great candle called Granny Smith and I love the Cranberry Chutney one as well.

I have that candle warmer and I put the yankee candle on it. Now I don't think it smells as much anymore. Can a candle, especially a yankee candle loose it's smell?

Also DO NOT PUT CANDLES IN YOUR BATHTUB. IT IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE.

I am a huge fan of febreeze. I love febreeze. I also use a lot insense burners. Mostly anything scented vanilla.

I also love candles. I usually have one lit in every room at night.

I have the tart warmers but I dont think they work for me Chat Icon Every time I use them they never have the scent in the air. Maybe I am doing something wrong Chat Icon I'll stick to the candles. At least I know how to work those and the whole room smells nice Chat Icon

Boiling Ginger makes your house smell really good too.

I use the oil burners from the Body Shop, the wallflowers from the white barn but they run out fast and a lot of candles too from PA.

For the person who said putting a candle in the bathtub is flammable is that b/c of the glaze they use on the porcelain? I cant think of anything else>Chat Icon

I bought a linen spray from BBB - it smells so pretty and a few times a week I spray it on the couch and chairs and in the bedroom.

Me too I spray the linens in the bedrooms everyday with it, smells so fresh Chat Icon

I use lightly scented candles - right now I am using American Craft "Waterfall" scents. They are light and not overwhelming which I enjoy.

I use the sprays from Bath and Body works.
Also the Wallflowers from there, but, now hesitating..
I may switch to the candle warmer.
