Top 3 uses for Candles.

Friends! there are tons of ways to use Candles, but here are my top 3!
1. We all love great food, but let's face it-sometimes our favorite 'dishes' can leave an unpleasant smell in our homes.
Candles can work great to lift that unpleasant smell and give your home the great smell it needs. If you are inviting people over for a gathering, be sure to light a 'fresh clean' scented candle at least an hour before they arrive. This will give time for the full fragrance to permeate the room and eliminate the bad smell. If you are using candles for the sole purpose of eliminating an odor, don't use a 'food' scented candle because if it combines with the unpleasant smell that will just create an even worse smell. So reach for your 'clean fresh' scented candles when combating a bad smell in your home.

2. Candles can definitely work to set a mood or atmosphere! Having a romantic evening for two? dinner by candlelight is the way to go. Tea-lights and votives work well when coupled together in small groups. Place each group (3 or 4) strategically in different areas of the room to create a 'romance' centered atmosphere. Candles can help to create any atmosphere you need. Long stressful day? place candles all around your bathtub and unwind. Use a light, fresh scented candle like 'Lavender' or 'Serenity' to complete relax your senses and uplift your mood.


3. Candles make great Gifts!
For Birthdays, Holidays, Anniversaries, House warmings or Weddings--any special occasion is a perfect opportunity to give a great gift. Gifts show that you care and that you celebrate with those who are celebrating. Candles are the perfect gift for anyone on  your list, they come in many sizes, colors and scents so you are sure to find one that your recipient will love. Every time they relight the candle you gave them, they will think of you. Candles are a gift that keeps on giving!!
