apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I think these are kind of cute -- but do they smell as good as they look? :)

Candles always look tacky to me. They should be put away unless lit and as I feel about many things, the simpler they are, the better they look.

My problem with novelty candles is that, when I look at them, I can't help fast-forwarding to how they'll look when they're half-melted, and it always kind of depresses me.
