Primark Christmas Candles

Primark Christmas Candles

On my day off I popped into Leeds City Centre Primark to take a dress back when I discovered the home section of Primark! I had never notice that they do candles and home decorations before. Anyway, I had laid my eyes on some Christmas candles, at first I thought that they would smell awful and not last very long at all! However, they claim to last up to 12 hours and they smell heavenly.



As well as being very cute aesthetically they also smelly great. The candles are in little glass jars covered in Christmas stickers. I brought two different fragrances Vanilla Bean and Boughs of Holy. The Vanilla Bean as a soft sweet vanilla smell to it and isn't sickly at all. Boughs of Holly, I believe, is cinnamon mixed with some vanilla undertones. Both candles are very homely and have a light Christmas feel to them. Candles are best on long winter nights, I find them very soothing and these candles are perfect for this.



After I have used the candles I am going to fill the jars with very hot water and remove all excess wax. Then, I'll possibly remove the stickers with hot soapy water and recover them with a suitable pattern for after the festive season. As they have lids they will make the perfect jars for bits and bobs such as; hair bobbles, bobby pins, jewellery ect...

Over the years Primark has increased in quality and now has a vast range of products which are affordable for most people. I am very happy I have purchased these candles at the expense of £1 each. They aren't the biggest candles ever but are definitely worth the money, seeing as after they're burnt they can be recycled and branded candles this size can cost up to £10.

If you're looking for Christmas candles on the cheap this year then Primark is the place to go. I would even recommend these as a stocking fillers or as a gift for grandparents/parents or carers if you're on a tight budget. Primark also do a set of three as a gift set, these would also make a cute gift for teens and adults.
