I love candles both as a “mood setter” and as a home decor item.  Whenever the seasons change, I always like to buy new candle scents for my home to help set the tone.  During the summer months, I love fresh, fruity scents and during the fall and winter months, I love candles that tie in with the season like cinnamon and candy canes.  Crafted Candles has a wide variety of candles and something for every occasion!  All of their candles are dripless and smokeless, too!

If you are looking for candles that tie in with the season, they have a selection of super cute Christmas candles.  I love the candy cane pillar candles pictured above (and they’re scented, too!) and I think these sugar cookie floating candles are so cute!  They have holly leaf floating candles, too!

These Christmas Tree Candles would be perfect for added holiday decor on an end table!  They have tree tapered candles, too, that would be great for a holiday dinner!

They’ve got winter candles, too!  They’ve got jar candles with scents for the season, pillar candles, floating candles, and taper candles.  They have some Holiday Stripe Pillar candles that look just like peppermint sticks!

Many Americans have a distinct memory of Hickory Farms at their holiday gatherings; Hickory Farms is very proud to be a part of those nostalgic moments and continues to focus on and celebrate its long heritage of tradition and authentic holiday memories.  Growing up, my family would always visit the Hickory Farms location in our local mall to stock up on items for the holidays.  We always had Hickory Farms cheese balls and beef summer sausage for our New Year’s Eve celebration.  My parents would always buy a buy of the Melt Away Mints as an added bonus for the kids.  Now that I have my own family, we always purchase Hickory Farms products for the holidays online for Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve.   For more than 60 years Hickory Farms gifts have been a classic holiday tradition that brings family and friends together

You can purchase Hickory Farms products for your family’s holiday celebrations in 700 holiday stores and kiosks across the country or online.  They make great gifts, too!  Find a location that carries Hickory Farms products in your area here–>    Hickory Farms store locator
