Floating Candles

Running out of ideas for planning a decor of your celebration? Floating candles might be just the thing you need. Check out if it works for you.

Floating candles are candles poured into molds of various shapes and used in a bowl filled with water. Since wax is buoyant they will float and add a special touch when lit.

Celebration & Imagination

Floating candles in bowls or glass cylinders can make any room special. For example, they can serve as lovely centerpieces for your small private parties, baby showers, birthdays and anniversaries, as well as for the really big ones like graduation parties and weddings.

Your imagination doesn't have to stop with the bowl filled with water. You can use the water tinged with food coloring and play with different combinations of the water color and the color of the floating candle. Or you can put colorful objects into the bowl, like big and small stones, flower petals, virtually anything you want (especially powerful if you can get a glass bowl).

More Ideas

Although water is often used with floating candles, it's not obligatory; you can place your floating candle in a bowl lined with sand, gravel, gemstones, potpourri... Also, no one said that you can have only one candle per bowl. Combinations of a few floating candles of the same or different shapes and sizes will surely help you achieve the effect you want.

Moreover, there are extra large sizes of floating candles for swimming pools, ponds and spas. It can also be an extravagant accessory to a jacuzzi.

Make your swimming pool magical for your summer pool party by combining large floating candles with the smaller versions of the same shape.

Even if you're not having a party, you can make your every day festive - twinkling floating candles will help you have a fabulous coffee table centerpiece or make a personalized combination that will mean something special for you.
