Picture this: You've come home from a long day, and you just want to relax with a glass of wine, your favorite TV show, and a great candle. Why is the candle a necessary part of that equation? Well, for one thing, smelling nice things is relaxing on its own. But, maybe you're trying to cancel out the smell of your roommate's questionable dinner, or your upstairs neighbor's smelly dog, or your own smelly dog. Whatever the reason, there's no denying that lighting a candle immediately makes us feel more relaxed. However, they can get pricey, so we did the hard work and found pretty options for $50 or less.
These candles don't just smell beautiful, they look beautiful too. That means they're great pieces of home decor for your bedroom, living room, or bathroom. They also make great gifts, and there are scents in here that are floral, woodsy, light, and everything in between. In short, you're going to find a new go-to.
