Candles

Nest Fragrances recently launched new votive candles in 10 scents. We have Bamboo (jasmine) votives candles, Nest Orange Blossom votive candles and the Grapefruit scented votive candle in stock.

Nest Fragrances was created by Laura Slatkin who helped her husband, Harry Slatkin, start the famous candle line Slatkin & Co. Harry sold the line and the Slatkin Classic Candle collection has been discontinued. Laura Slatkin created her new candle line, Nest Fragrances, in the Fall of 2008. The Holiday candle by Laura Slatkin is one of the best selling Holiday candles available.

Laura Slatkin’s Nest Fragrances candles are available at Candles Off Main at http://www.candlesoffmain.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&Category=139.

Does anyone know the laws in California around votive candle holders? I need to purchase a bunch for my wedding, but I heard there was some law about minimum required height. I want to make sure I get the right one.

Thanks for any advice.

Okay, its not the state regulators its your local county. You can check with your venue about who regulates in that area, but most likely you will need to talk with the County fire department. LA will not allow open flames in enclosed spaces, like restaurants and halls. Especially near live greenery. I have found that the fake candles work really well and aren’t too expensive. Certainly they aren’t as cheep as tea lights, but what else can you do? I know that in my area we were looking at hurricane lamp shades with tea lights, and the fire department MIGHT have issued a permit for that, but probably not.

Hi. I am making favors right now and need some votives. Have any of you gals bought some in bulk anywhere and how much were they? If all else fails I guess I will get them at the dollar store! Walmart maybe?

The cheap candles are imported (usually from China) and make a smokey mess leaving soot all over the votive holders, ceilings and walls. The soot and pollution can also bother people with breathing problems like asthma or emphysema. I would consider buying more expensive vegetable wax candles with less soot and using fewer of them to cut the cost.

try a candle co.com…. its a wholesale candel company… I got my votive candels and long stem holders that are beautiful for a great price. Good Luck.

I have tons of candles around my house, but I get so annoyed by blowing them, because of the smoke afterwards. I was thinking about getting the snuffer, but it seems to me, they are only good on the skinny tall candles, I have jars and votive candles.
So if I use snuffer, I have to dip it into the wax to put out the candle??

will it stop the smoke??

I have used my candle snuffer on all types of candles. You don’t actually have to put the snuffer all the way down on a pillar or jar candle and get it yuck with wax. Just hold it about a centimeter about the wax and the lack of oxygen will be sufficient to snuff the candle.

However…your issue with the smoke will not abate with snuffer. What it will do is "pool" the smoke around the wick and drift upward slowly. If you want candles, you will get smoke.

Try buying the all natural soy candles, and this will help with the smoke issue….at least the dark, black smoke. That comes from the burning of the colors and scents added to wax. Candles that are made with all natural soy and no artificial coloring will not put off as much soot. They are a bit more expensive, but worth it in my opinion.

I was wondering what the difference between a white candle and a white VOTIVE candle is, if there is one?

The term "votive" describes the size/shape of the candle; it is about 2" high and usually round. There are also tapers, (long, like in a candlelight dinner), tealights (very shallow in depth and can be used as "floaters") and candles generally used for candle magick, which are about 3 inches long, colored and unscented and found in most metaphysical shops.

Inspired by Family Fun Magazine, this fun and easy project is great for Girl Scouts or a kids’ Halloween party. See more paper crafts you’ll treasure at http://PaperJewels.blogspot.com

I bouught these candles in Estes Park , CO. I wish I could remember the name of the shop & I would try to order from them.It was not far from the Horse riding place that we went to which was called Sambraro Ranch I think.

There is a small shop in Bastrop Texas that makes their own candles and one smells like new leather. It is so delightful in a room. They do not have juniper, but that sounds nice too.
