I used to love candles.. Product rave
but I decided to try the bath and body scented oils ( I think they are made by white barn but are in all the bath and body scents) and I am totally hooked!! The entire house smells amazing and I love changing scents every day without having a hundred different candles all over.
I am going to pick up some more scents asap

Re: I used to love candles..
I'm a little afraid of using the oils. My mom was using an oil once (don't remember which kind) and she got a drop on her hand. She must have been highly allegric b/c her hand blew up and it effected the nerves in her hand. The doctor told her to take benadryl which brought down the swelling.

The oils were 7.50 each they are a small container but since you only use a few drops will definitely last a little while.
BTW right now at bath and body if you buy two oils you get the oil burner for free. ( picture attached is the one I got)
There is a holder inside for a tea light ( you use unscented) and put a few drops of the oil into the glass dish. They told me 10 drops to make the entire house smell.
The smell lasts the entire time and really covers the whole house.
The tea light heats up the oil and the scent goes through the house.
ETA I bought a few different scents but by far my favorite is fresh linnen!! Smells amazing!!!! Image Attachment(s):

I have only used yankee candle but my mom got a gift basket full of candles from white barn last year for christmas and she really loved them. I think they are in the same price range as yankee candle though ( but not positive)

Your welcome!! I can't believe I haven't tried these sooner!! The smell is much stronger and goes through the entire house vs. the one room the candle is in.
Such a huge difference! I am going to go back and get more also!! I think the buy two oils and get the free ($15) burner is a great deal! Makes for good stocking stuffers!

I noticed with some of them they drip out and some just pour. I try to match the equivalent of 10 drops as best as possible.
