Out with the candles, in with the new!
For the longest time, I would go to different stores to purchase candles on a weekly basis for my home. Loved the ability to purchase different scents in order to experiment new ones or seasonal ones. It became a habit and before I knew it, I was spending a lot more money than I had expected and candles are short lived while being a potential hazard for the home. So I started to venture towards other solutions. Tried different wall plug scents, potpourri, and even incense. Nothing seemed to fill the void until I purchased my first scentsy item.
What is scentsy you ask? Check it out here:
It’s an organization that sells different fragrance products, such as car scents, wax warmers for the home and a whole bunch more! The organization partners with charities and it’s sold by local consultants. Here are some of the benefits and the reason I made the change.
Kid friendly!
Ever heard of candles that are kid friendly? Nope! Neither have I. I’ve had a few scares with candles previously and thankful I didn’t pull a Britney Spears (burn my home gym down). I have two little ones (My Dogs) who get their noses in everything - one is 80 lbs and moves anything that gets in his way. I also have a 1 year old niece who started to walk and doesn’t stop.
My scentsy warmers have been able to coexist with all and haven‘t caused any harm. Even when my curious niece reached in to touch the wax, she didn’t skip a beat and continued on her marry way.
Have children, pets or want to avoid the risk of burning your home? Out with the candles and in with the new.
Fashionable and Great Gift Ideas!
Their selection is amazing and beautiful. I had seen warmers previously at stores and they are lower quality material that isn’t as durable, along with being relatively plain. Scentsy doesn’t only help with making your home smell good but also gives it a personal feel that can compliment your decor.
Here is an example of one that I have in the living room area that matches with my farmhouse theme. I have a total of 5 warmers and one that is seasonal (christmas theme) and they have an ability to make my home feel warm & welcoming. Can’t wait to further build my collection.
Additionally, they are perfect gifts for any occasion and their wide-range in products make them suitable for all ages. Warmers range from $20 to $55. $20 being mini wall warmers and the $55 being the full size warmer. There are specialty warmers where they partner with Disney, Marvel, or Star Wars. Most Recently, they have partnered with the NFL and other sporting leagues.
Share the joy with your loved ones and see their faces light up!
Cost Savings and Quality
Investing in warmers and some of the different scentsy products has saved me money in the long run. I was one that loved to have candles lit all day long and even at night. So on average, a candle would only last me a day or two depending on the size. So 4-5 candles a week started to add up and at times I would have 2 to 3 lit through out the home at the same time. Eventually, the costs started to add up.
But the key behind investing in a warmer is making sure the waxes that come with them are of quality. I had purchased some of the cheap ones and standard waxes - they don’t last long and the wax scent was gone before you knew it. Scentsy waxes last longer than others and cover a greater space. Did I also mention how they have dozens of unique scents that make you melt?!

My name is Aurora, an I'm also a former candle-holic. lol I used to buy candles all the time but then I started feeling bad having to throw away the candle jars. I tried to get creative with the jars and utilize them for something but then it just got to be too much. I appreciate reading this piece as I've never heard of scentsy and I'm excited to give it a shot. I'm always struggling to find scents of good quality and that are long-lasting, I'll definitely have to check this out. Great post!
