Geometric Beeswax Candles Make Nice Gifts

By George Price


Although not everyone likes to decorate the interior of their home, they may see that a few simple trinkets can change the look. First of all, it helps to keep spaces clean and use storage compartments to conceal possible clutter. There are some people who add small things for visual appeal but it gets lost amongst the junk that is on shelves and other surfaces. Things like geometric beeswax candles are objects that not only look nice but serve a purpose.

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.

Otherwise, some individuals would rather keep their spaces minimal with neutral colors and keep a pair of pillar candles on opposite sides of a wall or other space. This creates sort of a balance between objects unless a person prefers an asymmetrical look. If these are to be lit at some point, it may be wise to ensure that there is ample shelf space so they will remain secure.

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.

Accent colors work well in neutral or monotone spaces and sometimes it does not take a lot to make a visual impact. Most people may choose a bright or metallic color for candles, frames or other holders that are easily seen. Although some may attempt to match curtains or an area rug, this should be done sparingly, as to avoid a gaudy look.
