What Are Floating Candles?

Floating candles are a type of candle that has been shaped to be both beautiful and buoyant. They are often used in table centerpieces to enhance the appearance of the table, provide romantic candlelight, and dazzle guests. The benefit of floating candles is that they create a dynamic and vibrant decoration that is both unusual and inspiring. The way that the light reflects off of the glass candle bowl and into the water creates a spectacle that is difficult to describe in words.

Floating pool candles are designed exactly like traditional floating candles with the exception that they are usually much larger to accommodate the larger size of the pool. They come in a seemingly infinite number of shapes and styles, everything from imitation tree leaves to large sunflowers. The benefit of floating candles is that they immediately transform any outdoor space into a relaxing and mesmerizing hang out. Generally during evening events outdoors pools are somewhat of an eyesore. You have to create your floor plan around the feature, and try to draw attention away from it. By adding pool candles, you can instead use a swimming pool as an anchor point for your entire party. Rather than it being an eyesore, the pool will be a conversation starter, and a place where people will gather to watch in amazement as fire dances across the water.

Uses For Pool Candles

You can use floating candles for pool parties or any other outdoor event that needs a little design face lift, however they are not only limited to swimming pools. In fact, any water feature can be turned into a centerpiece for the party by adding pool candles such as a pond, lake, or even water fountain. Additionally, you can continue your floating candle theme indoors by filling hurricane candle holders with water at each table and putting floating candles in them.
