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.

The great thing about beeswax is that it can burn for hours without dangerous smoke. A lot of people gave up on paraffin versions because the soot produced contaminated the air. While beeswax is a little more expensive, it is a better choice for the user who likes to burn for a long time, especially in spaces that may lack proper ventilation like the bathroom.

Ottomans that allow storage for remotes, throws, and anything that can get in the way or lost is a lifesaver. Although these come in a variety of sizes with numerous features, like an organizer for small objects, it is best to get the largest one possible. In other words, one that can be easily transported, as these can get almost as heavy as a traditional couch.

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.

Choosing candles in bright colors is one way to liven up drab spaces. Although the majority come in a golden or pale yellowish brown shade, more candlemakers are trying out colors that compliment ocean themes or primary hues like red. There are also many interesting shapes on the market. In addition to geometric shapes, there are some shaped like skulls, tiki cups, and unique textures that could only be found in paraffin candles.

While some use their candles for decoration or in the place of a plant holder, there are some that give off a nice scent when lit. Although the slightly sweet aroma of honey is enough, some makers are using eucalyptus, lavender, or rose essential oils. These can heighten the experience, as some users like to create a tranquil environment for meditation or simply rest after a long day.

When money is tight, it also helps to keep things simple. While most large candles may not be ideal for shipping, a small decorative set that is prepacked can make a nice gift for someone who is settling into a new home or other occasions. Sometimes, the giver may get a decorative candle for themselves because they like how it looks in their home.
