This Dragonfly Luminary, $12, from The Wildfire is so beautiful that I’m going to post about it even though the shop is closed until August 1.

The luminary is made out of different layers of wax, then the design is handcarved into the wax.

It also comes with 6 unscented tea lights so that you can enjoy your luminary as soon as you get it.

This is definitely a candle that looks great even when it isn’t burning.

These cupcake candles, $3.99, from Visions in Wax are so cute!

You get to choose your color and scent - and of course there is a “cake bake” scent if you love to match your scent to the look of the candle.

There is also an unscented choice if you don’t like scented candles!

I love smores!

They’re so yummy.

So I freaked when I saw these Smores tarts ($1.75 - look for them in the tarts section - I can’t link to them) at Busy Bee Candles.

Best of all they are having a sale tomorrow - July 18 - you get 25% off with the code mentioned on the front page.

You do have to wait for them to email you the shipping costs, which I personally don’t like, but I know some people don’t mind. Do you?

I love candles, but I have to admit that I don’t have a favorite candle to burn.

I am ususally drawn towards tropical or bakery scents, and I love strong scented candles.

The only problem is that whenever I burn a bakery scented candle and people come to visit, they are always disappointed when I don’t have any yummy baked goods for them to enjoy.

Jax Candles, Sweet Scents Candles, and Valente Lane Candles all make candles that I enjoy.

What are some of your favorite candles, and who makes them?

Seaglass Candles offers soy candles with a twist - you can get your choice of several handpainted designs on your candle.

This picture is of the 10 oz frosted square container with a painting of a puffin, $20.25 with painting, $16.25 without.

What a unique idea!

There are several different containers to chose from, as well as several different painting choices as well.

And if that’s not enough you can choose your candle’s scent, it’s color, and whether or not you want authentic sea glass in it.

What fun!
