Call me unhinged, but I’m deep into Christmas in July and I’m not sorry about it. Twinkle lights, cozy vibes, hot cocoa (okay, iced cocoa) ☕️ I want it all.
If you’re craving a little festive magic in the middle of summer, you’re in the right place. Come obsess over Christmas decor and cozy inspo with me, the AC is blasting and the nostalgia is real. ❄️✨

My Favorite Christmas Candles

I know I shared with you all my favorite fall candles a little while ago, but now I thought I would share with you my favorite Christmas candles too. Especially since the season is quickly approaching, whether you’re ready or not!

I always love to have a stockpile of good Christmas scents on hand, that way I am ready to burn all the cozy scents when we have friends or family over to visit. And of course for Thanksgiving (you can totally burn Christmas scents during Thanksgiving too in my opinion) and Christmas!

Homemade Gingerbread Christmas Candle
Not only do they smell amazing, but they look so pretty styled in trays like this too!

Homemade Gingerbread Candle

So as you can probably tell already, these Christmas candles are from my favorite candle company ever, Antique Candle Co!

They literally make the yummiest and coziest Christmas scents and I just cannot get enough of them! I am so happy to be working with them this Christmas season because I know these will make such great Christmas gifts for all my friends and family.

I will share just a few of my favorite Christmas candle scents below with you all and keep in mind, they have even more options online too!

Christmas Candle Sample Pack

The Homemade Gingerbread candle is pictured above and it smells exactly like the name! It literally smells like you have been slaving away in the kitchen all day baking gingerbread cookies.

This one is their newest scent for their Christmas release and they have outdone themselves with this one for sure.

Homemade Gingerbread is a cozy scent of homemade gingerbread with sweet and spicy blends of ginger, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, and brown sugar, finished with warm vanilla.

Antique Candle Co
Homemade Gingerbread Sample Sized Candle
I just love all their packaging and labeling!

Tree Farm Candle

This one is my very favorite out of all their Christmas candles! I use artificial Christmas trees, so I love to light a good smelling pine candle.

And this one definitely fits the ticket. It smells like you just walked into a Christmas Tree Farm and are about to cut down a fresh tree home to decorate!

It is so nostalgic and perfect for this Christmas season.

Tree Farm Candle
This definitely makes that tree there in my office smell like the real thing!

Also, Antique Candle Co collaborated with Vintage Porch to make this amazing Christmas scent.

I love how they partner with bloggers and influencers to help them come up with their own signature scent.

I would love to be able to do that with them one day too. How cool would that be?!

Cozy Tree Farm Candle
Cozy Tree Farm Candle!

Tree Farm is a nostalgic scent of crisp, freshly trimmed evergreen and Fraser fir pines, wrapped in delicate notes of winter cedarwood.

Antique Candle Co
Tree Farm Candle Sample Sized
I could literally burn this sample sized tree farm candle in one sitting!

Christmas Day Candle

This one is also a great option too. I love the spicy cinnamon undertones to it and it smells just like a cozy at home gathering with friends and family.

Lighting one of these up for a Christmas party would be such a great hit!

Christmas Day is a Christmas celebration with top notes fresh pine, cozy balsam, and fir, blended with a heart of cinnamon sticks, clove, and soft hints of fruit and sweet oak moss.

Antique Candle Co
Christmas Day Sample Sized Candle
Can’t believe that Christmas Day is almost here as well!

Good Tidings Candle

Last but not least of my favorite Christmas candles is the Good Tidings candle. This one smells so delicious as well and I love being able to order all four of these Christmas scents in a sample pack before buying a full sized version of them.

The sample packs are such a great way to discover your favorite scents. This was my first year smelling all their Christmas candles too, and I am so glad I started with a sample pack.

That helped me determine that Tree Farm was definitely my number one favorite, but they are all so good too!

Good Tidings is a warm holiday blend of evergreens, citrus, cinnamon, and clove, highlighted by a sweet musk of raspberry, maple, and vanilla.

Antique Candle Co
Good Tidings Sample Sized Candle
This is the sample sized candle and they are so perfect for smaller spaces like bathrooms!

Conclusion

I literally can’t get enough of these candles and the Christmas candles are definitely my favorite out of all the seasonal options.

There is just something about lighting a delicious smelling candle along with the cozy glow of Christmas lights.

Have you ever gotten an Antique Candle Co Candle before? If you have, let me know what your favorite scent is below!

    Mmm these all sound wonderful. I’m at uni in lockdown at the moment and I miss the smells of my house around Christmas time, especially my sister baking her gingerbread house!!! Is it acceptable to buy myself a candle?… yes i think so 😂

    Ooooh, Charity! Each of these sounds absolutely divine. Few things can beat cozying up on a cold night, yummy scented candles lit, plush blanket on the lap, comfy pajamas on, with a cup of hot cocoa in hand. Whew, didn’t your stress level just go down 3 notches even thinking about it? 🙂

    By the way, the way you’ve decorated your home is absolutely beautiful. Such an inviting space. As a big fan of Christmas trees and how their soft lighting glows in a room, your office is perfect. You must enjoy creating in such a wonderful space?

    The Homemade Gingerbread candle sounds like it might be a winner for me. Do you have a favorite of the ones you’ve listed? I’m a big fan of ‘warm’ scents, which often include notes of cinnamon and vanilla.

    Thanks for sharing, Charity. I’ve pinned and shared your post. God bless you. I hope you and your family are well. 💕

      Awe thank you so much Holly! I appreciate that. My favorites are definitely the homemade gingerbread and tree farm for sure. They really do make your stress levels go way down when you light them and are relaxing on a cozy evening! And I hope you and your family have all been doing well too my friend!

Charleston had me in a chokehold (again), so naturally I said “why not?” to 24 more hours in my favorite city 💕 We hit all our fave spots, soaked in every last bit of charm, and it was so worth it. Now back to reality… and counting down to the next getaway (even if it’s a long wait 😅)

We were able to check out the cutest downtown Charleston Sewing Down South pop-up store and I instantly fell in love with this dress 😍 The print has all the iconic Charleston landmarks and it has pockets, say less!
Comfy, cute, and totally made for strolling these historic streets all day 🌸

Fingers crossed they don’t make a salad bar out of the rest of our garden 🙃
