What a Bargain!! Festive Candle Haul


Well can you believe it is November already? It feels like autumn has just hit us in Scotland, which is strange normally it is snowing by now.  I am starting to feel more and more Christmassy, so I wanted to get some new Festive candles.  I have seen so many people writing about the Yankee Candle offerings but the baragin hunter in me wanted to find something more purse friendly.

So off I popped to TK Maxx.  They had so many, I definitely recommend going there if you are in the market for some cheap candles.  I could have bought 3 or 4 but narrowed it down to these 2 beauties.

Reflections (£5.99)
This is my favourite of the two.  Think of the smell when you go in to a garden centre filled with real Christmas trees and you have this scent.  Totally delightful.

Winter Frost (£5.99)
This one smells like Christmas spices with a touch of creaminess.  Also really lovely

I think £5.99 for an 18oz candle is totally amazing.  Plus the jars will make lovely containers for sweeties or biscuits once the candles are done.

I would love to hear what your favourite Festive candle scents are?

Next and Accessorize October Haul


Off I popped in to town looking to buy a couple of midi rings and came home with this lot, as you do.  I was really in the Christmas spirit for some reason so got a little excited at all the gorgeous candles in Next and at such great prices too.  I really recommend you pop down there and take a look, they smell yummy.

Strangely, Accessorize isn't somewhere I tend to go for 'accessories' but I am glad I ended up in there because they had so many lovely bits. I managed to hold myself back from buying quite a few other things too (pat on the back for me there).

So here is everything I bought (I have linked to all the items I can find online). I don't think I could choose a favourite item because I love all of my little Haul.

Double Ring | Accessorize | £4

What do you think of my little purchases? Have you got your festive candles out yet?
