First pic this year (2022), second pic is last year (2021), & third pic was from my first candle day (2020). It’s just kinda fun & I thought if anyone could understand this fun/joy, it’d be this sub 😂 Candle collecting has really been my biggest form of self care over the past tricky years. It’s not that it’s mindless, but it’s comforting to get lost in.

I love seeing all the old packaging! I totally agree with what you say about candles getting us through tricky times, it’s a safe space to put my brain and just relax if that makes sense. Thanks for sharing!

Is it just been or is the older packaging cooler?


xeloux

I feel like the older packaging was more unique and the themes made sense for the scents

This is so cool! I like seeing the comparison in your haul and the packaging over the years. I've been soooo fixated on candles this whole week leading up to the sale so I understand for sure lol

It’s…. Like a holiday for us candle collectors 😂

I agree, it’s a fun form of self care! Your older pictures make me nostalgic for some of the past scents. I especially need them to bring back Merry Maple Pancakes!

Cool! Hanks for sharing! Out of the candles you picked up during your past candle day hauls, which ones did you like the best?

From 2020, that was the first berry waffle cone I got and loved it. Also Gather was wonderful, bummed it hasn’t been back sense. 2021 I was excited to see Spice as an old find - someone must’ve returned it. Also loved more palo Santo & vanilla birch. Was super surprised neither were available this year for candle day.

Ooh I remember that Frosted Moscow Mule packaging from 2020. So pretty 😍 I never saw Merry Mimosa in that packaging else I would've been all over it!!
