Soy candles are made from natural wax mediums.   These soy candles are found to burn clean, and do not have any black soot or smoke.  Candles are used today in celebrations, to create a romantic  mood,  add to a ceramony, as well as adding to a homes decor and a pleasing aroma to any room.

Many candle makers prefer to use 100% soy wax, while others will combine the soy wax with mixes of beeswax, or cottonseed oil.   Scents are added now to soy candles.    Because aromas are an important consideration in a candle purchase,  aromas have now been added to them.     The time the candles burn is also another factor that is considered.  Soy candles burn longer than  paraffin wax candles.  Many exciting and different changes are being made to the candle making process today.  It is a $ 2 billion dollar industry and will continue to grow.  

When we think of the this time of hear and the Holidays, we think of many things.  Decorating being one of the most fun things to do.  Any time I think of decorating I always think of what candles I can get to add to that decor.   Shopping for Holiday candles is one of my favorite things to do.  There are some very special aromas that only are avaiable at the Holdiay season.   When you live in Florida, and previously come from up North, it’s nice to be able to create an aroma when you walk into a room at Christmas that will bring all the thoughts of those cold, snowy nights and the smell of Christmas trees, but not have to actually experience that cold and snow.    There are also many beautiful Holdiay candles in gift packages that help make our gift shopping easier.    We all have such busy schedules and seem to never have time to do all the things we need to do.   Shopping on line has become the only way to shop for many of us.   While candles are a lovely gift to give any time, for most occassions,  the Holiday candles gift sets will not  only  be a gift most people will enjoy receiving, it  is a way for us to give a special gift for that someone special without the stress of what to buy and getting the shopping done on time.   Consider when making your gift giving shopping list Candle gift sets that may not have just the holdiay theme.  There are so many sets that have great aromas for setting many different types of atmospheres, relaxing, romantic, candle holders to add to the decor.   The choice of candle giving  as gifts is a really thoughtful gift which most people will enjoy receiving.

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.
