I, myself, am both. I can see merit in a severed hand candle on book case, or a lovely wreath of shiny black feathers adorning \u00a0your front door.<\/p>\n<p>I used to really like the store &#8220;Illuminations&#8221; and felt that, out of all the retail-smelly-candle stores, this was the one that spoke to me. Unfortunately, &#8220;Illuminations&#8221; didn&#8217;t survive the great 700 Billion Dollar debacle of 2008 and was\u00a0taken over\u00a0by Yankee Candle. I feel like Yankee Candle is more for people who like baskets or linens, but maybe I&#8217;m wrong.<\/p>\n<p>I could be wrong, because despite it all, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yankeecandle.com\/detail\/candy-corn-scented-candle\/1310328\" target=\"_blank\">I do find this Candycorn-scented candle to be intriguing and acceptable.<\/a> \u00a0I was a little freaked out, however, to find that it doesn&#8217;t just stop at candles. You can purchase candycorn car vent sticks, air fresheners and wax melty thingers. The 65-95 hour candle will cost you about twenty-five bones, and the votives are $1.99 each.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t want to smell candy corn, but you want to taste it, and you&#8217;re looking for an experience outside of the usual candycorn regimen, might I suggest <a href=\"http:\/\/www.candywarehouse.com\/products\/charms-candy-corn-pops-15-piece-bag\/\" target=\"_blank\">Charms Candycorn Pops?<\/a>\u00a0It&#8217;s $3.95 for a bag of 15 edible conversation starters.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gothtober.com\/gothblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/candycorn_pops.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1644\" style=\"margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-right: 20px;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gothtober.com\/gothblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/candycorn_pops.jpg\" alt=\"candycorn_pops\" width=\"322\" height=\"356\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.gothtober.com\/gothblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/candycorn_pops.jpg 481w, http:\/\/www.gothtober.com\/gothblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/candycorn_pops-271x300.jpg 271w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 322px) 100vw, 322px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wooo Hoooo!
