Breast Cancer Awareness Giveaway Items, An Opportunity For Your Beeswax Candles

By Angela Rogers


Candles! A necessity that people realize they need when the lights go out, whether or not it s your fault or not. They come in different shapes and sizes and even scents to set the right mood depending on the occasion. But most of their time is spent filling in the absence of light. They are also a great idea for breast cancer awareness giveaway items.

Certain materials can be used to create this wonderful invention. The most common is paraffin but have the disadvantage of releasing carcinogens into the air. With an emphasis on health and what can be done to reduce the carbon footprint, they emit in the environment around them. But there is a natural and healthy way around this and it comes in the form of candles made from Beeswax.

Fundamentally, because beeswax based candles come from bees, it means that the harmful carcinogens that are found in paraffin based and other kinds of blocks of wax is absent. Making for a much safer, cleaner and greener product overall. One which is safe enough to be used by people with compromised immune systems that happen to be hypersensitive like allergies.

It may seem hard to believe that a candle can do all of this, but with it being the byproduct of bees what else is there to expect? Sure, bees might be getting too much credit than they deserve but the tapers that can be produced by the wax they produce are just as phenomenal. It s not enough to clean the air and get rid of dust, nor is having it burn brightly and be easy on the pocket.

To make this product at home you will need to place the beeswax in a coffee can and place into a large pot. Fill the pot with enough water to enclose the coffee can but not so much that the water spills into it once it begins to bubble from the boiling. From there, you ll need to boil the water until the beeswax has melted.

A 60-minute session with the candle on in the bedroom can ensure that all of these advantages work in tandem to help those in need of it obtain a much more peaceful nights restBut there is a disadvantage to all this goodness. Because of the nature and composition of the product. It tends to burn hotter than its counterparts and can be regarded as a real threat when it comes to serious burns. So one should always be careful when handling them.

Once the wax has been added, remove the container from heat and allow it to cool for approximately 10 minutes or until it s safe to hold in order to make adjustments to the wick. Repeat the process to make more candles and allow for them to cool overnight. Trim the top off but not too much such that tunneling will occur when lighting and there you have it. A beeswax candle.

Extra precautions should be taken into consideration during this entire process due to the fact that beeswax is an extremely flammable substance and should be handled with care in order to avoid any injuries or moderate to severe burns that could have been easily avoided with taking a little extra precaution. That will allow you and others to enjoy your craftsmanship
