The Many Uses Of Tin Candles

By Harriet Porter


Society today has a multitude of ways to decorate homes, offices and events and many of these designer methods provide consumers with a lot of lee way to be original. The decorative focus for designers can change dependent upon the nature of the event or the size of the space to be decorated. One item that has become very fashionable is tin candles and the essence they bring to any room or event.

Designed to be attractive as well as fragrant they will add decorative touches to dark corners of your home. The fragrances they emit may work as a form of mood therapy when combined with the atmosphere created by the soft lighting provided by the movement of the flame. Fragrances are available in a myriad of sources. They are taken from flowers, trees, spices, citrus, and even comfort foods. Combinations of two or more scents are also available.

These tins make exceptional accessories for traveling. They can easily be packed into the suitcase for use in hotel rooms. The smaller tins are a perfect size for small rooms like the bath. Most hotels do not want guests to burn a candle in the room but they can freshen any room by being placed open on a table or night stand. Size and portability provide opportunity for many other uses of this product.

Their size variations allow them to be used as gifts for attendees at social gatherings whether large or small. As table favors for weddings or bridal showers they offer an opportunity to thank the guests who attend. They are also available in sizes that can be used in promotional situations. Sales personnel have used them as door openers when making calls on potential clients. They are also valuable during conventions and conferences when companies have booths to manage.

The wax used to make candle tins can vary dependant on the region the manufacturer is located in and availability of materials. They may be made using paraffin waxes, bees wax, palm wax or soy based waxes. The newest and most modern wax is soy based. It burns longer and cleaner than most paraffin waxes and is readily available to the candle makers.

Planning large events can call for bulk purchases of the tins. When ordered the customer is able to have labels printed for the containers or they can order customization of the tins in the form of names, initials or themes. Some manufacturers require that the customer apply the labels to the tins and attach the covers to them. This helps to defer the cost not only to the company but also for the customer.

If the container you select does not come with legs when purchased there are stands that can be purchased separately. Separation from furniture surfaces is important because the bottom of containers become hot as the candle burns close to the bottom. This can damage furniture surfaces and in extreme circumstances cause a fire. The holders also help prevent burns from hot wax or containers when moving the them while lit.

As gifts, promotions or for personal use the candle tins available offer a wide variety of options for you and your home decor. Having the power to change a mood or create a therapeutic atmosphere at will can be an empowering experience for anyone.
