Spring Candles.

Candles may not be the most personal gift, but they are a nice gift for possibly an aunt or grandmother, especially when you do not want to make a huge production out of it.

One of my favorite candle companies is Lumiere. All of Lumiere's candles are hand poured daily from the best ingredients by skilled artisans. They use only the best quality ingredients and use their exquisite craftsmanship required to make an exceptional product.

They are offering a new Spring Collection, that is so in tune to the season. In this set are 3 - 4oz. candles in the scents of Lilacs in Rain, Chamomile & Lavender, and Fresh Air. This collection retails for $30.00.

You can shop for this collection and many more of Lumiere's beautifully scented candles at The Luxury Candle Company.

A New Candle Collection.

Women always love tea. And candles. So how about some wonderfully tea scented candles for a great Mother's Day gift? I just spotted these over the weekend at Bath and Body Works and I knew you would love to hear all about them.

It is a wonderful new collection of tea scented candles that just out from none other than Sarah Duchess of York.

The collection:
Loyal-ty - White Ginger Tea fragrance
Tranquil-ty - Green Tea & Mint Leaves fragrance
Royal-ty -
Bergamot Tea fragrance
Digni-ty -
Mandarin Green Tea fragrance
Hones-ty -
Rose Ginger Tea fragrance

These are all 9 oz. candles and retail for $16.50 each. There is also the gift collection available (pictured) that contains a 2.5 oz. sized candle of each of the five fragrances for $49.50.

I love the scents of all of these, and I am even loving them more knowing that a portion of the proceeds benefits the Sarah Ferguson Foundation. Mom would love that too!

A Different Way to Enjoy Some Tea.

I love tea. Unfortunately, I cannot drink it as it is a migraine trigger for me.

Jimmy Belasco is the original founder of Ergo candles, and he now has his own candle line. I am quite impressed with the quality, scents, and long (clean) burn time.

I found this wonderful candle for $22 at a great web site,
