Get Ready for summer!

This is a blog for my candle customers to get decorating ideas for their homes. I hope that all of you find this information useful and I look forward to seeing many of you at a show soon!

With Spring Break around the corner, and summer soon approaching, I look at all the ways that I can decorate my home to reflect that summer feeling. I love the scent of the beach, and the sound of the ocean waves.

Gold Canyon makes it easy for you to decorate your home to reflect that summer time feel - and on May 1st our new summer scents will be available once again so that you can bring those outdoor aromas inside. Gold Canyon has a wide variety of summer accessories. You can start by purchasing a flared Hurricane holder, and fill it with seashells that you have collected at the beach, then place one of our wonderful pillar candles in your choice or fragrance and color in it to complete the summer look. There is a great sample of this in the Spring catalog, found on page 68. A little sand and shells with a candle makes a great statement about yourself.

Don't forget to add a Starfish tealight holder to your collection as well. These starfish are 6 1/4 inches in diameter and look wonderful on your patio table or mantle in the summer. And you can also think about the iridescent seashell tealight holder. This open shell holds your favorite tealight and is a great addition to your powder room counter or shelf.

Another great use for the Gold Canyon flared Hurricane is for a fish bowl. Some of you may have received my Gold Canyon Newsletter that showcased the goldfish in the flared hurricane. Much like a beta fish with a peace lilly, the flared hurricane with a gold fish is a great addition as a center piece for the table or credenza. When I saw that hurricane being used for a fish bowl, I immediately placed an order to Gold Canyon so that I could have it for my daughter. She has been bugging me for a fish, so I figured this would be a great way to showcase my products and the flexibility of their use. Who would have thought about putting a fish in a flared hurricane? Gold Canyon did, and I loved it!

And lastly - Remember that the Gold Canyon catalogs that you receive from hosting a show are a great way to get decorating ideas. I will update this blog often to tell you some of the things that I am doing with product that you may not have thought of! Feel free to contact me with questions or comments about Gold Canyon Candles, tell me how you are using Gold Canyon Candles in your home, and how you decorate with the accessories. I may publish your idea in my next blog.
