Light Up Your Home


Phew ! This month was quite hectic as i was celebrating my daughters first birthday.
I was away from the blogging world all this while.
Coming to my today's post, i simply love to chat about  this topic.read on........

When we say Home Decor,you can't go without mentioning candles.Candles are wonderful energizers.
Decorating with candles adds an inviting sense of warmth and luminosity to the interior spaces of your home. There’s something lovely and calming about the soft flicker of a candle flame. Candles are one of those basic items of decor that never seem to go out of style.
I simply love to fill my space with candles, and every time I see one I get one.
Working on a candle centerpiece is creatively fun, which I religiously do for every occasion. 

You can bring in some basic color therapy while choosing the candles. The warmer or cooler vibrations of the various colors will create a different feel to the room. Check out this color chart for the effect you desire.
  • Red: a warm stimulating color that encourages physical activity; it can also revive passion in the bedroom.
  • Orange: a creative color to enliven a room and bring in joy and enthusiasm
  • Cinnamon: a stable, grounding color that will harmonize a room.
  • Yellow: a mentally stimulating color that can help arouse lively conversations or increase concentration.
  • Green: a harmonizing color that brings balance, soothes the emotions, and offers security and protection.
  • Blue: a calm, cool color that engenders feelings of peace, particularly in the bedroom.
  • Purple: a soothing, intuitive, and psychic color, used for cleansing meditation rooms and bedrooms.
  • White: the color of purity; it gives protection and comfort.
  • Gold: the color of abundance and understanding.
  • Silver: the color of the moon; a balancing color that encourages change and learning.
