Candles are just a solid block of wax with an embedded wick
which is ignited to provide light but there are many reasons to implement them
in your life.
Light
Placing a candle in front of a mirror generates a reflection
of the flame that doubles (or seems to double) the light in a room. Use a large mirror over our fireplace hearth. You can line up candles of various sizes
along your hearth, entertainment center or table. The combination of the flames and the
reflections results in a glow that can illuminate your living room.
Festivities
It’s a practiced tradition to put candles on a birthday cake
so that the birthday boy or girl can make a wish and blow them out. Candles are also used in wedding
celebrations. From the traditional Unity
candle to lovely centerpieces that feature candles to floating tea lights. Add warmth and intimacy to your backyard
barbecues and parties with candle lanterns, tapers, and votives. Have a pool or pond? Use those floating tea lights to create a
backyard paradise.
Romance
Candles create mystery and romance, and who couldn’t use a
little mystery and romance in their life?
Set the mood with candles. Enjoy
a candlelit dinner, create a warm, inviting and sensual ambiance to a bedroom,
or enjoy a sexy, seductive bath with your lover.
Relaxation
You should take just a few minutes a day to sit back and
relax; you will find yourself feeling so much better emotionally and
physically. What better way to relax
than with candles? The soft glow and
enticing scents will give you a warm and fuzzy feeling.
These are just a few reasons you should make candles part of
your everyday life. Celebrations,
whether as parties, romantic evenings or just a quiet night at home alone are
made better with the soft glow of candlelight.
