Who doesn't love Fall? It is absolutely the most beautiful time of the year. Between high school football games, bonfires, the fair, and pumpkin patches, we are certainly busy this time of year.
Have you noticed that there are either "Pumpkin People" or "Apple People"? It's either Pumpkin Spice Lattes or Apple Cider. It's the biggest debate since Coke vs. Pepsi. I didn't even know this was a thing until a week ago when I asked a friend if she wanted me to pick her up a Pumpkin Spice Latte. She said "Ew, no. I like apple cider". Apparently they are mutually exclusive. It's impossible to like both at the same time. Whatever "type" of person you are, I've addressed your needs in this list.
I love lighting a fall scented candle to keep the "fall" mood going at home. We sell MANY fall candles and tarts--- just check the "Autumn/Fall" collection on our website. For those of us that have a hard time deciding, I've compiled this list of our favorites:
1. Pumpkin Pie
This is my absolute favorite. I keep my pumpkin pie candle burning ALL THE TIME when I am at home. It smells like pumpkin spice lattes and pastries.
Tart granny smith apples with sugary berries, sprinkled with fresh cinnamon? Yes please. Without a doubt, this is my favorite apple scent for Fall. I told you, I'm not an "apple" person but this sweeter apple scent has made me think about switching teams.
The only reason this isn't higher on the list is because I can't burn it at home too often-- I end up eating too much! Caramelized Pralines is, in my opinion, the best "food" scent we have. It smells DELICIOUS. It is great for when you have company coming over and you want them to think you've been baking all day.
You can tell I like Pumpkin- can't you? I couldn't make the list without also including Pumpkin Spice. It's like Pumpkin Pie's spicier brother. If Pumpkin Pie is too tame for you, Pumpkin Spice will probably scratch the itch.
Lastly, I had to include one for the "other" type of person. If you are an apple lover, this is your candle. Apple Jack-N-Peel is the ultimate apple scented candle. One candle will fill the entire room with an apple fragrance that is to-die-for.
Thanks for checking in to see our favorite Fall candles. Make sure you post yours on our Facebook page!

It's summer time and the livin' is easy, especially when your home smells like a vacation in the tropical paradise of Hawaii! I love to light this candle while enjoying a bubble bath. I close my eyes and imagine myself laying on the beach with the sun warming my skin into a perfect tan. A beautiful, golden-haired man serves me fruity beverages on a tray...meanwhile, the kids have decided to use fingernail polish to paint the cat "shake your moneymaker" green. Sigh.
Seriously though, if you are a fruity tropical scent lover- this is the candle for you. This is one of our most frequently purchased candles online and at festivals in the Summer time. It has never gotten a negative review.
Next time you are looking for a vacation on your couch, try the Hawaiian Paradise candle.

It was hard for me to choose a candle to feature on our first blog post-- we have so many great ones! So I decided to choose one that would be useful around the home for more than just smelling good.
The Smoke and Odor Eliminator Candle can be used for the obvious purpose-- smoke odor elimination-- but it also works GREAT at eliminating pet odors, trash odors, or that funky smell in your teenager's bedroom. It leaves the air with a wonderful scent that is similar to the of Juicy Fruit gum. Many of our customers have told us that the candle has a great throw- which means that it can be smelled easily from a good distance from where the candle is actually sitting. It is easily one of our best sellers and one of the candles that we get the most positive feedback on.
So if you're having trouble making a choice today or if you're shopping specifically for a product that will eliminate that burning smell that has drifted into your house from your neighbor's burning leaves- try the Smoke and Odor Eliminator Candle.
Don't just take my word for it, here are some of it's reviews from our Amazon page:
"....they do the best of any product I've every found. The scent is just wonderful too. My sons say they can tell a big difference walking into the house when I'm burning one of these (or have been earlier in the day)..."
"...The fragrance is soft and delightful and the containers in which the candles are made are really pretty. This seller could not have been any nicer. Their business will thrive because of the way they treat their customers and I will absolutely return to buy more in the future!"
"Although I bought it to eliminate smoking odors, which it does, I will also buy it in the future for the plain joy of the lovely aroma it produces. Have been a candle burner for nearly a half-century, and this is my hand down favorite. Love the hexagon shape too - more decorative than the typical jar candle."

Welcome to our new website. If you have been a Just Makes Scents fan for a while, thanks for sticking with us. If you are brand new, welcome! We are so happy to have you on board.
We have worked very hard to make everything on our website easy to use and easy to find. As you may know, our website used to be "www.IJustMakeScents.com". However, over time, we found that customers had a hard time finding us when they were searching "Just Makes Scents". Ultimately, we decided to create a new website, not only to clear up this confusion, but so that we could also add ONLINE SHOPPING (!!) to our website! We are so excited to introduce this feature to you.
As you are browsing around, please let us know if you have any recommendations for improvement. We love feedback and want to know what our customers have to say. We hope you find something that will interest you.
