Mmmm Man Candles! | Vanilla & Lime

At this stage, when it comes to candles in our homes, we should be basically charging the candles rent because they now take up whole rooms. It was once just a couple shelves, then it turned into a couple closets pretty soon we’ll be needing candle houses! But luckily the men in our lives have stopped asking “is that more candles?!” and have learned to live with them and our addiction, which sometimes they feed, you know cause we’re so cute and bat our eyelashes at them.

But we still feel the need to convince our men that candles are a necessity in life. I think we hope that maybe they’ll become hooked too and buy MORE CANDLES for us to have enjoy together. 😀

Man candles or “mandles” are the perfect excuse to get them to buy candles or for ya know, spontaneous romantic gifts that we say are for them but are really for us. Tee hee hee.

Here are some of our favourite mandles…
