4 Reasons To Burn Candles All Summer Long

There are people out there that consider candles more of a cold-weather thing, but any true candle fanatic knows that they are wonderful to burn, no matter what the weather. They really don't put off a lot of heat when burned alone, and with the amazing scents you'll find at Good & Perfect Gifts, your summer season will be wonderfully enhanced. Here are 4 reasons that you should be lighting your candles all summer long. 

To Relax
There is something so soothing about the delicate, entrancing flame of a candle. After a long day at work, sitting beside a lit candle does wonders for helping you unwind. This effect is greatly enhanced if you choose a scented candle in a relaxing fragrance such as bergamot. 

To Bring Summer Scents Indoors
On those days that it's just too hot to be outside and much more comfortable to shut the windows and turn on the AC, a scented candle can bring the seasonal aromas inside with you. Fruity scents such as citrus, strawberry, and pears are wonderful. You can even get a little tropical and pick coconut, pineapple, or mango aromas, and even odors reminiscent of warm sand and an ocean mist can be found in candle form. Floral candles always smell incredible, bringing gardenias, roses, jasmine, lavender, and more out of your garden and into your home.

To Add Evening Outdoor Ambiance 
Enjoying a quiet evening outside by candlelight allows you to really take in a gorgeous, starry sky. Turn off all of the electric lights and light a few candles instead. You'll want to make sure that the flame is protected from being blown out by wind. The jar candles we carry at Good & Perfect Gifts are the perfect solution for that. 

To Keep Bugs Away
There will be lots of times this summer that you will be outside, but so will those annoying bugs! Citronella candles help to keep them away from where you want to be. You can add a few drops of citronella essential oil (NOT the citronella fuel used for tiki torches) to an unscented candle to keep bugs under control. 

We have an incredible candle store at the Lake of the Ozarks. A great time to stock up is every week on "Tyler Thursday" when we offer bonus gifts for spending $15 or more on all of the Tyler Candle Company's amazing scented items we carry. They make a lot more than candles! 

You'll also find a wonderful variety of other exceptionally well-made candles from trusted companies on the shelves at Good & Perfect Gifts. These make excellent gifts, but don't forget to pick up a few for yourself too! It's always easy to find a spot in your home or office for a new candle.
