1Love Candles, who kindly sent me this box to review, is a monthly candle / tart subscription bag. Every month you will receive a package of wonderfully scented candles, lotion candles, and tarts!
1Love Candles ships via USPS Priority Mail and took just a few days to arrive to me.
1Love Candles packages everything in a reusable burlap bag. I always forget that burlap sheds, so I ended up with it all over my pants. Oops!
I couldn’t tell quite what everything was yet, but it did smell amazing!
The December 2014 1Love Candles theme was “Holiday Love” and included the following items:
~Woodland Berries Candle ($7): I can’t recall if I caused this chunk to fall out of the candle or if it came like this. Sometimes WB helps me unpack boxes, so you never know ;). But once I start burning it it will not even matter!
~Sugared Spruce & Cinnamon Bun Tart ($3.33): First can I just sat that these are adorable? They look like chocolates! But don’t eat them because they are so not! I am dying to try these, but I realized that I don’t have a tart warmer. Can someone point me in the direction of a good (inexpensive) one?
~White Tea and Ginger Massage Candle ($6.50): Again, this one smells amazing! And what is a massage candle you ask? Well, you light it, wait a few minutes and then blow it out and pour the soy wax on your skin and rub in like lotion. I will admit that I am scared to try this! It says it’s a low-temperature wax so it won’t burn you though so I just need to get over it and try it!
~Mulberry Tarts ($2.50): Again these smell awesome, but I do not have a tart warmer! I badly want my house to smell like these (and the other tarts) so I need to get on that as soon as possible.
All totaled I came up with a value of $19.33 for the December 2014 1Love Candles bag. With shipping it’s $21.81, but if you were to purchase the items individually from the 1Love Candle etsy shop you would be paying shipping for it as well, so I think it works out about even?
What do you think of 1Love Candles, LLC? Have you ever tried a candle subscription? What do you think?
I hope I don’t sound totally ignorant asking this: What is a tart?
Target! 😉
Jennifer email your address if you want. I have been going through my stash of two hundred plus tarts and keeping just a few. Also was getting rid of some of my burners. I have a Yankee Candle burner I was going to list on craigslist that I think you would love!
I’ve had luck finding an inexpensive tart warmer (which is the same thing as a wax melter…think Scentsy) at Ross and TJMaxx
Also, massage candles really are amazing! you can pour directly on the skin of the person you’re giving the massage to. It’s warm but not too hot. Great for a sensual massage 🙂
I thought the tarts were white chocolates when I was scrolling through the home page. We have a massage candle from a Fantasy Box. My husband won’t let us try it because he is afraid it will burn 🙁
I was just in Kirklands this weekend & they had all their tart warmers on sale for $14.99! If I didn’t already have one, I would have bought one definitely!
