Dressing up your Candles

 

Depending on the type of candle you have and the event, you may want to dress your candle up a bit. 

Here are a few ideas.

-         Wrap silk flowers or greenery around the base

-         Set the candle on a mirror, creates a very lovely effect

-         Spread rose pedals around your candle, especially great to create a romantic effect

-         Sand and shells can make a very summery feel

-         Set the candle into a bowl full of stones, shells, sand, etc

Using a Hurricane Candle Holder

Due to the size of a Hurricane holder, you can do any number of things with it.

Try putting some aquarium rocks in the bottom, and nestling in a votive holder and votive.

You could fill it with candy, and put in your votive and holder

Filling the hurricane with coffee beans can make an interesting look

Float a few tealights inside the hurricane holder

Fill with sand, and place the candle inside


Around the outside, there are all sorts of things you can do as well.

Wrap silk flowers or greenery around the base

Rose petals can be sprinkled around the candle

Confetti would make a nice touch

What is your Favorite Product?

Believe it or not, it isn’t the candles. I love the Homeology products. I will tell you right off the bat, I am not a cleaner. Never have been, never will be. Wish I was. The Homeology products are our natural cleaners. They smell wonderful – no opening your window afterwards to get rid of the chemical smell. And now that I have two kitties running around my house, I don’t have to worry about what they may lick off the floor.
