Holidays are fast approaching and Americans are busier than ever these days and, as we make more and more personal and business contacts, keeping track of holidays, birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, housewarmings, weddings, and other special occasions can seem as daunting a task as climbing Mount Everest. Listed below are the top 3 reasons that soy candles make the perfect gift for anyone on your shopping list:

1) According to the National Candle Association, candles are used in 7 out of 10 households and both men and women consider candles to be a highly appreciated gift for a wide variety of occasions. Soy candles also support American farmers, last longer, and clean up easily with water.
2) The vast majority of candles sold by major candle companies are made with paraffin wax, a petroleum by-product.
Why not give a gift you can feel good about? Most people love candles and many now burn soy candles exclusively.
3) If, when you think of soy candles, jelly jar candles with checkered ribbons come to mind, think again.

There are soy candles for virtually every type of personality available to consumers. From Chinese Ginger to Grape Bubblegum to Nag Champa, the days of generic candles scents are over.
With most candles costing less that $20, it is very difficult indeed to find a more popular, welcomed gift at such an affordable price. It does not get any better than a soy candle.
