What do
you buy as a gift for the person who has
everything?
What do you buy for
someone you don’t know well, such as your new
in-laws, your friend’s mother, or the coworker
whose name you drew for the office Christmas
party? There is one gift that everyone is sure
to love: a special candle. You can buy a
high-quality candle at a local store or order
one online. You can even try your hand at making
one yourself!
To explore this idea, you can visit a craft
store that carries candle-making products or go
online for ideas and shopping options. You can
find kits with all the materials for making your
own candles, or you can buy ready-made candles
for various decorating purposes. While at the
craft store, you can also get the gift basket or
decorator vase to hold your gift candle and any
accessories you want to add. Browse the web
pages for plentiful gift ideas to consider for
holidays, birthdays, and special events such as
anniversaries, promotions, and house warming
parties.
Candles come in a very wide range of sizes,
shapes, designs, colors, and styles. They may be
scented or unscented. Votive candles are used
for spiritual and meditative activities. Thick,
scented jar candles, and candles in other
containers, disperse fragrance throughout the
home. These self-contained products are easy to
keep clean. The variety of colors adds a festive
look to any basket gift combination.
Decorative items to use on your candle gift
basket might include lace, ribbon, sequins,
glitter, and a fabric liner. To decorate your
basket, you’ll probably need supplies and tools
such as scissors, a glue gun, tape, thread, and
gift tags. You might be able to find these
things at a dollar store or discount store. Look
for coordinating or matching colors and styles
to give your basket a professional touch.
Accompanying gift items could include scented
soap or bath oil of the same fragrance as the
candle, a box of specialty chocolates, gourmet
tea, a cute stuffed toy, designer hand gloves, a
personalized mug, or an inexpensive (but not
cheap) piece of jewelry. Decorative wrapping
paper, tissue, and a box to contain everything,
or a colored cellophane wrap to enclose it all,
along with an attractive card, complete the
presentation.
Before buying someone a scented candle as a
gift, find out if he or she is allergic to any
specific scents. For example, some people are
allergic to roses or other flowers, herbs, or
plants. If a person is very sensitive to smells
in general, it might be best to choose an
unscented candle. Beware of lead wicks, too,
which can release toxic fumes into the air.
While their use in candles is prohibited in the
U.S., you may find imported candles containing
lead wicks.
Arrange your gift basket display attractively to
let the receiver know that he or she is special.
Everyone appreciates the thoughtfulness and
creativity that goes into the making of a
special gift basket with quality items and
materials.
