Salt City Candles - My favorite candles

Anyone who knows me well, knows how much I love candles. A friend of mine asked if I could have a candle party at home. My birthday was coming up and I thought it would be great timing to have the candle party at the same time .

My friend mentioned that she was selling candles from the US and that they were called "Salt City" candles. I have not heard of them before but I thought sure, I love candles and they were made in the US which I assumed were good quality ones.

The day of my birthday came, my friend arrived and set up her candle display in our lounge room. The guests started to arrive and after a while we gathered all the ladies in the lounge so we could have a good sniff of this beautifully jarred candles.

We went through heaps of jars, they had fruity scented ones, floral scented ones, spiced scented and they also had some accessories on display.

Wow, as soon as I smelled the fruity scented ones, I was in heaven. I wanted to buy each and every jar that was on display. They have 2 sizes, 1 is a 26oz jar and the other is a 16oz jar. I normally get the 16oz jar which last between 50 to 60 hours.

My favorite Fruity Scents are:
Cucumber Melon
Fruit Slices
Lemon Grass
Lime Twist
Tahitian Mango

My favorite Floral Scents are:
Bamboo
Orchid
Secret Garden

My favorite Spice Scents are:
Cafe Paris
Kettle Corn
Welcome Home

They have lots more to choose from. The ones I've listed are the ones I always have around the house. I light one in the kitchen and after a while the whole house smells so wonderful. You don't have to light so many candles around, just one Salt City Candle is enough. They truly are one of my favorite things.

Have a look at the beautiful jar and the vibrant colors of the candles:

Salt City Candles are made from a blend of materials to ensure you get the best scented candle available. By following the candle care tips below, you will be sure to get the best possible performance from your candle.

• Burn your candle for at least 3 - 4 hours each burn.
• To reduce sooting/smoking, trim the wick to 0.5 centimeters each time the candle is lit.
• Keep wick centered.
• Keep candle out of winds and drafts.
• Use a Salt City Candle Co. Wick Dipper to help reduce smoke and make the wick easier to relight.
• Keep candle free of any foreign matter.
• Do not allow flame to touch sides of jar.
• Place on a protected, fire-resistant candleholder.
• Never burn a candle on or near anything that can catch fire.
• Never leave a burning candle unattended.
• Keep out of reach of children and pets.
• Do not place lid on jar while burning.

Salt City Candles are so popular because they produce the most fragrant scented candles on the market. Their unique wax formulation allows them to use higher levels of fragrance oils per candle. This formulation burns cleaner and lasts longer than other soft wax candles. Salt City Candle is dedicated to selecting only the best & truest fragrances. Salt City Candle also offers one of the largest collections. One other thing is the jar they use. Once all the wax has burned, I wash the jar really well and because it is so durable and a waste to throw out, I actually re-use it for things like sugar, tea leaves, rock salt and anything you can think of that you can put in a jar. Makes my pantry look sofisticated.
