Soy Candles - The Perfect Gift for Candle Lovers

If you know someone who loves candles, I highly recommend you consider giving only SOY candles.  They burn clean and don't destroy your sinuses the way traditional candles do, and they burn up to 40% longer!

This year I received several awesome soy candles from www.CaterpillarCandles.com   They smell so good in my office, even when they aren't burning my office smells delicious! One of the scents is vanilla cappucino - it smells DIVINE! You can also get many unusual scents such as Banana Bread and Christmas Fudge. 

The candles are lovingly hand-made by Jennifer Sherman who is a real sweetheart and even provides you the ability to make your own customized candles and custom gift baskets.  You can get 5% off your purchase, too!

I recieved a soy candle last year as a gift that I absolutely loved I think it was a Kathy Ireland candle. Does anyone know where I can find more?
thanks

Yes, Ariane, one of my favorite clients just bought a few of these on my recommendation and he LOVES them!

I know how toxic "regular" candles are, I wouldn't think of burning them now. Once you go soy (or beeswax) you never turn back.

Soy candles all the way! Be careful about the company providing the candle. Make sure it's 100% soy. I had a shelf-load of @ 50 burning soy candles collapse and fall all over my body. Covered in wax: yes. Burned: no. So I found out quickly how a low-temp-burning soy candle has immediate advantages over a paraffin candle. Also, fyi, soy candles (and any candle for that matter,) do throw off some soot and by-product. But the reaction seems to be (from our employees' and customers' opinions) strongly in favor of soy. No negative comments to date!
