Best Scented Candle Cards to Leave a Lasting Impression

Posted on by

Candles are one of the oldest ways man has brought light and warmth into the world, and while electricity and bulbs now fulfill that function, candles still have meaning beyond providing illumination.

They have become almost symbolic, representing ideas, hopes, and emotions, or they come with scents and designs that tickle the senses or soothe the soul.

Candles have become the perfect medium to convey feelings and create memories, and this simple yet innovative design combines an extra-thin aromatic candle with an equally thin multi-purpose packaging that lets you send a more personal and more memorable message that delights the senses and warms the heart as the candle flame dances and spreads a soothing fragrance throughout your room.

The Problem: Forgettable, Distant Messages

E-mail and instant messaging have made the world a smaller place, allowing us to immediately reach people half a world away in the blink of an eye. While that does open up new channels of communication, it has also made messaging feel less personal and, ironically, more distant.

It’s almost too easy to just pick an emoji, sticker, or animated GIF to convey a message, almost like simply cutting out a random picture from a magazine and sending it to your friend as a birthday card. It technically works, but not in a way that you’d remember for years to come.

There will always be a need to have more meaningful and memorable connections, and sometimes doing it the old-school physical way has more impact. You could always write a personal message on a card by hand, by why not go the extra mile and send something that really conveys your intentions not just through words but also through the sights and smells of a fragrant candle?

That’s the complete package that this unique candle and card combination offers to make sending personalized messages not only more effective but also faster and more affordable as well.

Why this is the Best Scented Candle for Cards

Scented candles aren’t new, but few of them could be easily mailed using standard postage stamps. This aromatic candle and its packaging, however, are so thin that it be easily sent with a 94 Japanese Yen standard stamp, removing the hassles of sending packages and whatnot.

Using the message card is simple as well. The sender writes their heart-warming message on the card and mails it, while the receiver takes out the thin candle, stands it on the indicated slot on the packaging, lights up the candle, and enjoys its fragrance as they read the message and watch the little flame dance.

You might have reservations about lighting a candle that’s standing on paper packaging, but this aromatic candle card is specially designed to protect you while you bask in the emotive experience. The packaging is made from fire-retardant paper, so it will only turn black without flaming up when burned.

The candle itself also has a natural extinguishing design where it only burns halfway through, around 30 minutes, before it dies out. All you have to do is light up the candle and sit back as you enjoy the sensations that it brings.

Who This Scented Candle Card is For

Candles have a naturally enchanting aura about them, with the flickering flame causing you to sometimes zone out in deep thought. Candles have also traditionally been used to honor loved ones, whether on birthday cakes or on memorial sites. The emotions that the sight of a lighted candle can be as varied as the messages sent with it. Pair that with soothing aromas, and you’ve got the perfect blend for a memorable sensory experience.

Sakura (Pink): The delicate and elegant scent of cherry blossoms, capturing the essence of springtime in Japan, adds warmth and beauty to any space.

Green Tea (Green): A soothing blend of sweetness and bitterness, evoking calm and relaxation, making your “Thank You” even more meaningful.

Yuzu (Yellow): A refreshing and slightly bitter citrus aroma that invigorates the senses, perfect for brightening someone’s day.

With such a visual and olfactory treat, this aromatic candle message card makes for the perfect gift if you want to quickly send a heartfelt message that no app or email can adequately convey. Its compact packaging and safety features make it convenient to simply mail a package to your loved one without worrying too much about costs and logistics.

Step away from the chaotic and impersonal world of instant messaging once in a while and create a deeper and longer-lasting connection with this beautiful Scented Candle Card.

One-of-a-kind ‘Candle Disc’ tracks the passage of time by melting wax in a different way

Posted on by

Since time immemorial, candles have been used to track time, with the burning of the wick and the disintegration of the candle being used to calculate minutes and hours. Seokoo Yeo’s ‘Candle Go’ brings back that particular feature, but in a unique format. The Candle Go is a wax-warming apparatus that uses disc-shaped candles, melting them almost like a timer. The wax melts radially, sort of like hands of a clock, while gravity allows the candle disc to rotate. The result is a candle experience that’s distinctly unique, allowing you to visually measure time passed. Yeo designed the Candle Go to help you track goals and time spent being productive (sort of like a wax-based Pomodoro timer). At the end, the disc melts away to reveal a medal that rewards you for time spent pursuing your goals.

Designer: Seokoo Yeo

What the Candle Go explores so beautifully is a new way of burning wax. Traditional candles feature a standing design, with a vertical wick that lights at the top, gradually moving downwards as the wax melts away. Historically, markings on the side of the candle would then tell how much time had passed, helping people track minutes and hours. The Candle Go doesn’t do that – instead, it mounts a flat disc of wax on an axis, quite like a vertical CD player of sorts. Rather than having a wick on fire, the Candle Go uses a warming element that melts away parts of the wax in a radial style. The melted wax creates a weight imbalance, getting the disc to rotate on its own. This clever technique uses gravity to its advantage, allowing the entire disc to melt at the end. You can easily track the time just by staring a the shape of the disc. It visually represents a pie-chart of sorts, allowing you to easily and intuitively understand ratios and fractions, therefore figuring out how much time has passed.

The melted wax gathers in a chamber at the bottom, ensuring your tabletop doesn’t get covered with melted wax (the way you’d otherwise face with regular candles). There’s no fire involved too (which could be a safety hazard), although the candle does emanate a warm light that is diffused by the natural properties of the wax.

Once you’ve exhausted your candle disc (and received the reward inside), simply load another disc to keep tracking your goals, and the amount of time dedicated towards achieving them!

This Colored Glass Holder With Its Refillable Candle Is The Prettiest Last-Minute Christmas Present

Posted on by

Christmas is right around the corner, and if you’re looking for a wonderful last-minute present, then we may be able to help you out. Italian architect Cristina Celestino designed an ethereal-looking colored glass candle holder for Diptyque’s first refillable candle. The holder features the brand’s signature oval shape and was created as a part of the Les Mondes de Diptyque collection. The stunning candle holder was created “to achieve a monolithic volume while maintaining a soft, tactile quality”.

Designer: Cristina Celestino for Diptyque

Designed as the brand’s first refillable candle, the candle can be utilized multiple times owing to the various replacement oval blocks that can perfectly fit into the holder’s glass form. The candle took almost three years to produce, as they needed to be sure that the wax would burn properly and evenly in the oval shape, and could be swiftly replaced if needed.

“It [pressed glass] is the most suitable for creating a compact object with highly precise and significant details, all while maintaining quality standards,” said Celestino. “I’ve always had a deep affinity for glass and consistently experimented with it in crafting small objects like flower vases and, in the case of my brand Attico Design, candle holders.”

The candle holder is made up of a trio of glass rings that have been stacked on top of each other, which makes a lovely reference to Diptyque’s three founders, and “subtly pays homage to their fruitful creative union”. It was built using a pressed glass technique which is also called molded glass – a process utilized to create intricately designed and detailed glassware. The method includes placing molten glass into a mold and then pressing the glass to the shape of choice via a plunger or pneumatic device.

The glass candle holder was designed to elevate the mood of a room, completely enhancing its ambiance, and adding a seductive charm to it. The colored holders come in shades of – blue, red, green, grey, and orange. They can be refilled with any of the five scented wax candles, that were created after drawing inspiration from five locations around the world – Nymphées Merveilles (Milan), La Forêt Rêve (Mexico), Temple des Mousses (Kyoto), La Vallée du Temps (China) and Terres Blondes (Colorado).

Candle warmer with halogen lamp makes your self-care routine more relaxing

Posted on by

There are days when all you want to do when you get home is light up a candle or turn on your diffuser, relax with a book or by listening to music, and just let all the day’s stresses melt away. Self-care has become such an important buzzword the past few years so we get a lot of products now that let ordinary folks have their own destressing rituals without spending so much. After all, we need to find the “silver lining” in whatever situation we’re in.

Designer: Adaption Design Studio for SUMSEI

This is probably one of the reasons why this new product from Korean brand SUMSEI is called the Silver Lining Warmer. They say that this is in reference to the beam of light that shines through the clouds, which is what the product wants to be for those who need a bit of relaxation at home. Basically it’s a candle warmer but with the added bonus of a halogen light to make your room even more comfortable and calming.

The main purpose of the warmer is to diffuse the scent of the paraffin candles as they’re melting from the halogen lamp. But the Silver Lining Warmer also has a halogen lamp that would flicker as you use it to give you a spa-like atmosphere as you enjoy the scents and scenes while probably having sounds in the background as well. The warmer uses heat-resistant resin so that it would still be safe even with the heat from the halogen lamp.

It uses a pretty minimalist design with just black and white color options available so it should go well with any aesthetic. As someone who enjoys diffusing smells and sometimes candles at home while reading or just resting my eyes while listening to music, this is the kind of addition to my routine that I’ll welcome.
