Using Pillar Candles As Themes for Your 2011 Calendar

If you are in search of a unique theme for your 2011 calendars, try pillar candles. These are large candles (hence the name pillars) which due to their size and girth can stand freely. They are wonderful to look at and are widely used for decorative purposes. Pages showing different types of candles, different decorative arrangements and settings made using them, or even steps for making pillar candles would all be good subjects for your 2011 calendars.

Pillar candles available in the market these days are made of paraffin or soy. You could get them in white as well as a multitude of colors. You could get odorless candles as well as scented candles in which case the wax is mixed with aromatic oils or essential oils which give off perfume when they burn. The different types and colors of pillar candles could be used as a theme for your 2011 calendars.

They can be used either with candle holders or sconces or without them. If used without them they need to be placed in a fireproof place such as a table with a fireproof table top. In the case of candle holders you could use either decorative pieces or just plain fire resistant glass bowls or basins. The wall sconces are almost always decorative pieces though they do come in different shapes and sizes. 2011 calendars showing different types of candle holders and sconces would appear very charming.
