How to Reuse Scented Candle Wax

How to Reuse Scented Candle Wax

Summary

  • Decorative candles are one of the most cost-effective ways to decorate an event space.
  • Consider the position of your candles and what candle holder materials would complement the rest of your décor.
  • Tealight, votive, and pillar candle holders are the most popular choices for event decoration.
  • If decorating a dinner table with candles always choose unscented candles as the aroma from the candles won’t interfere with the smell of the food.
  • Unlike tealight candles that are contained in a cup, votive candles are bare and will burn onto the surface of the holder.
  • Pillar candles are designed to burn inwards, making them great for church services and event spaces.
  • LED Candles have a beautiful natural glow and are safe to use in any event display.
  • Adding decorative sand or stones to the bottom of your candle holder can help stabilise the candle.

Decorative candles create an ambience of natural light that invites a peaceful calm into any event. They are also one of the most cost-effective ways to decorate an event space. But with a huge selection of candle holders to choose from, how do you select the right ones? This helpful guide will explain the different selections of candles holders, and give you some simple styling tips to help inspire you.

Organising flowers can be quite an emotional process. With fresh and fake flower arrangements central to so many important occasions it leaves little room for error on the florists’ part. It’s essential to create an arrangement that is not only visually stunning, but is reliably put together. Using the right tools is the first step in ensuring the blooms are in top shape for the day.  Whether it’s a wreath, a pomander ball, a cross or any other floral foam based arrangement being created, mossing pins are preferred by professionals over other pins.
