Candle Inspiration

When I was a kid I hated getting candles as presents - I got so mad that I would toss them out, I just couldn't understand what was so good about them and thought they were a cop out gift. Now I covet them and think back at all those wasted beautiful candles I could have enjoyed! I think they are even more beautiful when they are burnt down like these Diptyque candles. I also adore the new Jo Malone candles in six shades of Farrow and Ball paint colours.
