In the summer, it’s tempting to just run your air conditioning and keep your blinds closed—but that means giving up on one of the best parts about summer: spending time outside! But don’t worry, we have a solution. Our newest candle collection is perfect for beating the heat this season and bringing some extra light into your life.
First off, consider starting a new hobby with us. A mini candle collection can be fun and relaxing (not to mention decorative), and there are many different kinds of candles you can collect. You can buy them or make them yourself; either way, they make great gifts or housewarming presents! You could even use them to personalize your space at home by decorating every room with a different type of scent. Here, we are going to describe various types of scented candles you can use for the summer season:
Bright, Bold Colors
The most important thing to keep in mind is that the color of your candle will have a strong influence on how it looks and smells. Red, orange, pink, yellow, green blue, and purple are all great colors to have in your collection–especially if you’re looking to set a summertime mood. The bright hues of these candles can help create an uplifting atmosphere in any room as well as make it feel clean and fresh. They can also add a touch of warmth (or coolness if you prefer) depending on the temperature outside!
The great thing about using candles during summertime is that they don’t take up much space at all–you don’t need any fancy holders or other accessories because having them around makes enough of a statement by itself! You can leave them out without worrying about them getting knocked over or anything else happening because they’ll look beautiful no matter what happens around them!
Candles You Can Use For A Cookout
Use your mason jars for a centerpiece. Fill them with flowers, or arrange them on a table by themselves to add some color to the space. Consider adding citronella candles; they’re perfect for outdoor parties because they do double duty as bug repellents. If you get one that smells like food, it can also add an aromatherapeutic element that will make everyone feel more relaxed and comfortable while they enjoy the fresh air.
Soy Candles
A soy scented candle box is a perfect summer candle. They’re made from soy wax, which is a renewable resource and burns at a lower temperature than other types of candle waxes. They also have no artificial dyes or fragrances, so you don’t have to worry about inhaling any harsh chemicals when burning them! Soy candles come in all different styles, shapes, and scents so you can find the perfect one for your home or office.
If you want to add some comfort food to your next barbecue party but don’t want it to be too messy (or take up valuable space in your freezer), consider making these delicious frozen margaritas that come together in only 20 minutes!
Practical Scents
There are a few scents that are particularly good for summer. These include:
- Citrus. The scent of citrus is refreshing, yet it does not overpower the other aromas in your home like floral and sweet smells can. Citrus scents can be used to create an atmosphere that evokes feelings of joy, relaxation, and ease. This can help you feel more calm and relaxed when you’re trying to unwind from work or school during the summer months.
- Clean laundry (but not laundry soap). The clean linen fragrance is perfect for relaxing at home because it’s not too strong and doesn’t give off an overwhelming scent as some candle companies make them out to be! It also helps keep my rooms smelling fresh all day long without having any negative side effects on my health either! This makes me feel confident knowing that I’m breathing clean air into my lungs every time I light up this candle without worrying about harmful chemicals getting into my bloodstream causing cancer later down the road… how terrifying!
Handmade Candles
Handmade candles are a great way to support local artisans, and they can often be more attractive than store-bought, mass-produced candles. They’re also more expensive, but the quality is worth it. If you’re looking for handmade candles and want to give them as gifts, consider purchasing ones that are hand-poured or handcrafted. You can gift scented candles, especially which are handmade.
Travel-Friendly Candles
You’ll find the best travel candles online, at stores that sell handmade soaps and candles. But if you want to buy them in person, visit a local apothecary or natural products store.
Candles made from soy wax or beeswax are ideal for travel because they burn longer than regular waxes—allowing your vacation to last longer. Look for containers with lids that won’t melt in your luggage; these can sometimes be found at craft stores and sometimes from shops that sell handmade soaps and candles.
If you’re going on an extended trip to another country, consider purchasing these smaller versions: travel tins filled with soy-based scented waxes will easily fit into any bag.
