Our homes can appeal to more than just one of the five senses. For instance scent is a part of your townhome in Lynchburg, VA. Have you noticed the abundance of seasonal scents in the home fragrance section? What is your favorite scent? Pumpkin pie, apple spice?
Spread pleasant scents around your townhome, especially when you're entertaining. Use a candle to carry that scent into each room. Today's flameless scented candles are so realistic, with LED bulbs that glow and flicker like a real flame, chances are your guests won't even notice the difference. And they provide a great alternative to placing real candles near curtains, plants or other decorations.
This is the time of year for candlelight. It's relaxing and comforting and they just create an ambiance that makes it feel like the days aren't quite as short.
Pick scents that appeal to you. Accentuate a season with something like cinnamon or evergreen in the winter and vanilla grapefruit in the summer.
Candles help to rid your home of a strong odor, too. If you're cooking fish for a dinner party, highlight the scent by putting a lemony candle where your guests will be. That's the aroma they'll notice.
Make your townhome more welcoming and friendly by combining scent with the colors and textures of your townhome.
