Geometric Beeswax Candles Make Nice Gifts

By George Price


Oftentimes, a person may get sick of looking at the same bland interiors at their home but are clueless as to what they can do. Although hiring a decorator may be a solution but not if money is a concern. There are also those who want to add something unique with a visual appeal but may be at a loss for ideas. The good news is that things like geometric beeswax candles or other functional item serve the purpose with little labor.

When it comes to storage, the average home dweller can have a hard time distinguishing what should be left out and items that can be stored away. Things that look nice, whether they be pictures, plants, or even standalone storage items should not sit in disarray. Necessary items, like places to put keys or store remote controls, can get lost when there is too much going on.

At one time, shelves could only be installed by someone who had carpentry skills but these days, shelving can be added with a touch of a button. Invisible shelves are fairly easy to install and the simple design looks great. These shelving units look best when placed on high walls. Some may add a candle to each unit to give a simple but elegant look.

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.

At one time, geometric and other nontraditional shaped candles were made from paraffin. These days, more candlemakers are using safe materials like beeswax, coconut oil wax or soy. The generous offerings these days have also allowed the price to come down or offer more features, like natural scents.

Candles can be placed atop surfaces but for some, the higher the better. This works best when there is more than one and there is a pattern in the placement. There is a balance theory that many interior decorators follow where similar objects may be placed horizontally across from one another to create symmetry.

Choosing the right type of candle depends mostly on the space and how it will be used. Pillars or novelty candles usually stand well on their own but tapers are great for intimate meals. Larger candles also have the most decorative details and great for showing off accent colors.

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.
