IKEA Is Selling an Adorable $1 Holiday Find You’ll Want to Use in Every Room (It Doubles as Storage!)

I’m a total candle-lover. I collect all sorts of candles — especially in the winter. I’m particularly obsessed with scented ones that help craft a cozy ambiance in the colder months. I typically splurge a bit on candles, so I was shocked to see IKEA’s adorable new VINTERFINT scented candle for just $0.99. When I saw it, I instantly fell in love with its simple and beautifully modern design. Plus, it comes in a lovely little glass container you can use once it’s done!

The paraffin and plant-based wax candle comes in a mini glass ramekin and features a crisp scent of fir with hints of eucalyptus, which makes it perfect for the holidays (and works year-round, too!). This refreshing scent profile instantly transports you to a lush forest, and makes your space feel homey, charming, and ready for the holidays. It’s 2 inches by 2 inches and has a burning time of about 12 hours total. It’s the easiest way to perk up your home decor for the season without breaking your budget!

When the candle is spent, you can easily remove hardened wax by washing the surface with warm water and reusing the versatile glass ramekin. The vessel is perfect as a tealight holder or to store small items such as hair accessories or keys, or for holding office supplies like paper clips and push pins. With its chic ribbed sides, you can use them all over the home to add a touch of charm effortlessly. It’s unclear whether or not the glass is food-safe, so I’d keep it away from any snacks or sweets unless they’re wrapped.

Because the candle is just $1, I plan on purchasing several of them to place in different rooms of my home, and then to reuse them as adorable candle or trinket containers for my winter gatherings and beyond. Get them while you still can to soak in the holiday spirit!

If you don’t live near an IKEA or it doesn’t ship to your zip code, don’t worry: Check out this set of eight unscented votive candles from Target for $8.50. They cost about the same price as the IKEA candles, and you can get a plain version that might better fit your home’s aesthetic.
