Contemporary Beeswax Candle Designs Make A Great Holiday Gift

By Lisa Mitchell


After a long day, it helps to unwind and relax. This is the best way for many to recharge so they can be more productive and have the mental energy to move forward. However, it can be difficult to take a breather in a space that looks chaotic. By placing a few holders with contemporary beeswax candle designs in a few clear spaces in a room, all a person may need is a glass of wine.

Although some may not think of candles as the ideal gift, it is something that works in many situations. One common scenario is to participate in a gift exchange at work and not know what the recipient may like. Candles are practical and when made into a number of shapes, can add a nice decorative touch.

While being online can save time spent waiting in line someone or buying items not available at every store, it wreaks havoc on the eyes. Extreme users may even experience headaches from time to time. Some people find themselves needing computer reading glasses to reduce the strain.

The great thing about the beeswax versions is that these burn clean. Another feature most users appreciate is the natural scent, which can be calming and not overly sweet or overpowering. Candles made with natural herbs and scents give off a subtle aroma that is ideal for most households.

Beeswax candles are also great to hang around the house during family gatherings. Although it is best to not have near a natural tree or another flammable object, these can be lit in different areas like the kitchen, living room, or dining area before serving a family meal.

If a person likes to use scented candles, this space should also benefit from the fragrance. What some people do not realize is that some aromas, like lavender, may be calming. Candles with a natural fragrance are the most effective, even if the scent is not very strong. Although some like to sniff unlit candles for its potency, the lingering scent can be distracting to some.

While some find candles and wine to be the perfect pairing, the latter can be substituted with different teas. Preferred teas for relaxing are chai, herbal, and fruit blends but it is really up to the individual. Whether they enjoy tea with the usual condiments or by itself, there is no wrong way to enjoy it.

Candles of any type have a number of uses, like helping to provide heat within a space. Often people complain about the price of utilities during the holidays but forget the simple ways they can cut back. Using natural sources of light instead of electricity when possible is one way to keep holiday expenses down and not pay the price in the coming year.

Setting the mood does not have to be romantic but it should be tranquil. Writing in a journal, having a pleasant phone conversation, or just reading something that will help an individual unwind are good scenarios to light a candle or incense. If a person is extremely busy, setting aside a designated time that family and friends should respect is a good idea.
