Choosing CandlesThere are many different types of candles on the market right?. This doesn't make it easy to choose the perfect one. In fact you could even get stuck or confused on which type of candles and accessories to buy. So let me help you figure it out. There are a few questions you need to ask yourself before making or buying products for this basket. Questions Like: What's their favorite color? What is your budget? What size basket do you want to make? And the final Question is: What candle scents does the recipient like? Vanilla, lavender, or melon etc..? If you don't know maybe you'll want to use a certain theme. Choose something they enjoy like maybe he/she loves to eat fruit. If so then you might want to look for fruit scented candles. Shop for Apple, Strawberry, and Peach etc... smelling candles. Maybe him/her like flowers. If so you would make a flower scented candle them basket. You would want to add scents like Rose, Lavender, and Gardenia etc. For Example: If you are doing a Mixed Berries theme you will look for the candles with strawberry, raspberry, or cranberry scents or smells. You will also try and match colors like pink white, red and burgundy those colors match well together. If your basket colors are blue you will match white royal blue, dark blue, baby blue etc... See What I mean? Find items that match including accessories.
