Scent: Cold Shoulder

They Worked Yesterday — A Funny Christmas Candle for the Lights Crew

Yesterday the lights worked. Today they’re tangled around the ladder, one strand is dark, and somebody has said, “I’m not doing this next year” for the fourteenth consecutive Christmas.

This funny Christmas candle is a gift for Dad, a husband, a neighbor, or the volunteer who goes outside in a knit hat with one clip in his mouth and insists the problem is “probably just the fuse.” We’ll bring him a ladder. We’ll also mention the fuse.

The label scent is Cold Shoulder, with frosted eucalyptus, snowy fir, crisp citrus, and white amber: a crisp winter scent for the annual Christmas-light repair operation.

Burn it right

Keep the wick trimmed before each burn. On the first burn, let the melt pool reach the edge of the vessel when practical. Never leave a burning candle unattended, keep it away from drafts and anything flammable, and stop burning when about 1/2 inch of wax remains.
