The Downside of Scented Candles at Home
They probably smell wonderful and look elegant, “but because many contain a high concentration of oils, they can cause soot deposits throughout your home.”
As a severe asthmatic, and now trying to combat the obesity that steroids, to control my asthma, have given me, I hope to learn more from your blog.
Scented candles, along with detergents, dust, ice cold air (gosh, New York was bad, but London is horrific too!), cigarette smoke etc. (long list!) play havoc with my respiratory system... a shame as I do love them. But breathing has a higher priority for me ;)
I am always looking for new ways to enhance my life and those around me. Thanks for some lovely ideas Kare!
