Santa Baby for Yankee Candle® Fans

Santa baby, slip a Yankee® under the tree, for me
I've been an awful good girl
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, Storm Watch® and Beach Walk™ jars too, light blue
I'll wait up for you dear
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Think of all the fun I've missed
Think of the other candles that I haven't lit
Next year I could be oh so good
If you'd trim all my candle wicks
Boo doo bee doo
Santa honey, I wanna Tart® and really that's
Just a start
I've been an angel all year
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa cutie, there's one thing I really do want, a jaunt
To the big Yankee® store
Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, I'm filling my stocking with Car Jars®, and gift cards
Sign your 'X' on the line
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Come and light my Christmas Tree
‘Cause that’s a treat I save just for me
I really do believe in you
Let's see if you believe in me
Boo doo bee doo
Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing, Fresh “Ming”
Oops I mean "Mint"
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight.

I Need A Little Yankee Candle Christmas!

One of my favorite times to think about the holiday season is just as the weather is starting to change. The days are just a bit shorter, the nights are just a bit cooler, and my mind starts to wander thinking about the days and weeks ahead. Will I have a theme to my decor or will my daughter's hand-made creations be the theme? In addition to our traditional holiday yummies, what new recipes can I try? Of course, on December 24th I'll be burning my personal favorite scent Christmas Eve®, but will I find a new scent to love and add to my family celebration this season?
Before my schedule gets crazy and the hurried pace of life accelerates, I can truly savor the anticipation of this magical time of year and take inspiration from favorite magazines, treasured memories, and this new video from Yankee Candle's fragrance expert Doreen Smith. Hmmm, Cherries on Snow™ sounds like it just might become this year's holiday scent-erpiece!

Light A Yankee Candle For Good Luck In 2011

Burning a Bayberry candle
From tip to socket
Puts luck in the home and
Gold in the pocket.

This year for my office gifts, I passed out more than just a trinket. I really gave my friends and coworkers my wishes for good luck in the coming year. You see, tradition holds that if you are given a Bayberry candle as a gift from a friend, and you burn that candle on Christmas Eve or New Year's Eve you'll receive good luck, good health, and much wealth in the coming year.

Each year the chandlers in the candlemaking museum of our South Deerfield MA flagship store dip thousands of bayberry candles by hand, just the way it used to be done in colonial America. Our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility just down the road apiece uses our decades of candlemaking expertise to craft not only Bayberry tapers but also our best-selling Holiday Bayberry™ scented candle line. Those candles are our beacons of light, welcoming the new year with hope, anticipation, and glowing wishes for all!

Happy New Year!

Yankee Candle's Wishes for a Scent-sational Season!

‘Twas two weeks before Christmas

When throughout my abode,

I was hustling and bustling

In full gift-giving mode.

With my list at the ready

I planned my attack

To bring fragrance to all,

A scent in each sack.

My eyes how they twinkled

As my nose took a whiff;

My senses went on holiday

With each yummy sniff.
For the teacher, I chose
A Gingerbread candle;
For my husband, of course

A Mistletoe man-dle.

For each of my sisters

I thought out of the box

Stuffing Car Jars® and wick snips

Into their socks.

My best friend loves Tarts®;

Her fave: Sparkling Snow™

I gave her a dozen

Tied up with a bow.

The last gift I wrapped,

Make no mistake

Was "From Me To Me":

My Christmas Cupcake!

So from my blog to your home,
I hope my wishes are clear
For a scent-sational holiday

And a fragrant New Year!

Yankee Candle Outlet Stores Open For Midnight Madness!

After the post-feast nap, the football games, the kitchen clean-up, and the family's departure, what will you do Thanksgiving night? If you are like many bargain hunters you might be up for a little bit of shopping madness ... Midnight Madness to be exact! An increasing number of shoppers decide to brave the wee hours and head to Outlet Centers as the calendar turns from Thanksgiving eve to Black Friday morning. Those who do reap the rewards of deeper deals and the best selection. For this year's Midnight Madness, all Yankee Candle Outlet stores will be offering INCREDIBLE deals on all large jar candles: 6 for $60, 4 for $44, or 2 for $25 (regular outlet price is $15 each)! Of course, Midnight Madness is certainly not for the faint of heart. To make the most of the midnight run you'll need to arm yourself with a list of must-have gifts, a back-up list of substitute scents, a good friend to help you navigate through the mayhem and sufficient caffeine to keep your motor going. When you get there you will find the kind of merry chaos that can only happen when people feel the thrill of the deal! It's a sure bet that if you experience Midnight Madness in a Yankee Candle Outlet store once, you'll make it an annual tradition. It's as American as Black Friday shopping itself!

Please note that some centers will open earlier than midnight so to be the first in line, call your local store for their hours. Follow these links to find the closest Yankee Candle Outlet store to you:
