Scented Votive
Posted in Home Decor Candles on 06/14/2004 07:23 pm by admin
At a time when most people are keeping a close eye on their budgets and only purchasing necessities, it is possible to use candles and scents to provide impressive decorations for just a little money. Here are ten methods of adding delight and beauty to your house with fragrance and candles.
1. Even a simple meal can be made gracious and stylish with the use of tall, flickering candles. When you light candles prior to serving, even leftovers become inviting.
2. Place three pillar candles of varying heights on a glass mirror so that the flames are reflected and the illumination enhanced. Affordably-priced mirrors that have beveled edges are available in different shapes at craft stores. For a little extra glitter, shake some sequined confetti on the mirror.
3. Warmth and drama are added by an eclectic grouping of votive candleholders.
4. Enhance visual stimulation by the use of candles in odd numbers.
5. Use beaded bracelets and charms for a dressier look on these long lasting jar candles. Use different themes for different holidays. Style and color is added when the jar is lit and the beads are illuminated.
6. For an added pleasure, give each room its own distinct fragrance. If you use different scents that blend together, the sense of smell is aroused when you move around and doesn't focus on just one scent.
7. Those who suffer from allergies can frequently tolerate soy candles as opposed to those made from paraffin wax. Free from sooty residue, soy candles last a long time. There is a wide variety of colors and fragrances available.
8. A surefire way to impress your guests is to display a centerpiece that includes floating candles in a punchbowl filled with bubbly club soda, cheery red cranberries and pungent mint sprigs.
9. Wall sconces come in many creative forms and diameters that will hold tea lights or votive candles and can display a striking or romantic atmosphere. It costs little to replenish tea lights that are spent. If fire is a concern, tea light candles are available with an artificial flame that "lights up" for several hours using one replaceable battery.
10. Use aromatic reed diffusers for unattended rooms, like bathrooms. Not only are they eye-catching but they emit a lovely scent without the worry of fire.
A home's decor can be enhanced, even on a budget that is limited, using fragrance and candles that can be enjoyed anytime. Put fire safety first always, especially with pets and children. Since the warmth and glow from a candle is such a pleasant experience, they are great presents to give, even if you give one to yourself.
