Richly Scented Candles October 26, 2007

Many years ago candles primary use was for a souce of light only.   Today you will find candles in almost every home, being used for different purposes.  

I love to decorate my home and each room has its own special atmosphere.  Let’s think about decorative candles.   Using  decorative candles is such a great way to add to the room.    I always burn scented candles, and different scents will create a different feeling for the room.    In my bedroom I enjoy a lavender scent.   It  is relaxing  and adds to the stress release that I want  when I lay in bed with a good book and smell that relaxing aroma.

In my kitchen the decorative candles would be more of a rich aroma, while adding to the decor.   Today there are so many fun shapes, sizes and fragrances.   In the kitchen you can use decorate candles that look like a pie, or fruit.   The decortive candle holders come in all sizes and shapes and sytles for any decor.   You can choose from pumpkin spice, to apple spice or any other fragrance that will remind you of the special aromas coming from the kitchen. 

My family room is always one of my favorite places to display my decorative candles.  Not only do I have jar candles, but I have holders for tea light candles and voitive candles.   All the candle holders are different sizes and shapes, but each add something to the room and is so pleasing to see as you walk in.  

Soy candles are one of my favorites because they burn so clean.  While I love all types of candles, I have found the soy candles to burn longer and cleaner.   Now many of the soy candles come in different scents as well.  So anyone that would prefer to not have the residue from burning candles should think about purchasing the scented soy candles.   I can not think about decorating in any fashion without having candles to help me achieve the special effects and warm glows.
