Geometric Beeswax Candles Make Nice Gifts

By George Price


When it comes to buying something for another person, especially when there is not a close relationship, it helps to not go too over the top. Although some may choose to go extravagant or get something that is unique, the best judgment is practical. If personal interests or activities are not known, then choosing something that everyone can use at some point is the next best solution. However, if one wants to give something with visual appeal, geometric beeswax candles may be the answer.

Other items that are functional but have visual appeal include area rugs, decorative shelving, and ottomans that act as an organizer. Rugs of any size can protect surfaces from wear but also disguise floor markings or carpet stains that are hard to remove. Areas rugs are great because they come in a variety of colors and patterns but it helps to invest in a quality brand if it will be used often.

The best measure is to use space sparingly. Candles are ideal when placed on high surfaces but are also beneficial to those who like to read or sit by candlelight for a few hours. The latter is great for those looking to save money on the light bill or just want to create a peaceful atmosphere in the home.

Decorative candles are great because they can be matched to certain accessories or furnishings in a particular room or space. Some people who enjoy decorating may attempt to match the curtains or area rug with a detailed color found in a sofa or loveseat. Although some amateurs may go as far as consulting a color chart, sometimes just going with personal preference is enough.

Although some of these may come in basic or neutral colors, these are great for adding accent pieces. Interior accents may include frames, holders, or if an individual wants to keep things functional, a pillar candle can work. Not only can the flicker of the flame be soothing after a long day, but there are also many colors and patterns that work well in blank looking spaces.

Because many modern candlemakers adhere to certain health standard, the infused scent is more delicate than those found in mass markets. Many use small drops of natural oils, dried flowers or fruit skin to give off a hint of smell. While the aroma may be intense, it may not be best for those who like to burn their candle for hours at a time.

Often gift recipients prefer something that is useful rather than something over the top. Some people like to buy expensive items as a way to impress but at times, this can backfire. In most cases, when people receive something they cannot use, they either regift or trash it shortly after they send the giver a thank you note. With candles and their many uses, it can be hard to go wrong.

The great thing about beeswax is that it is safe to use for long periods of time. Since these burn hotter than paraffin these have the potential to clean the air instead of add pollutants that come from the soot. These are becoming a popular choice for households where a member may have respiratory issues.
