RACINE, Wis., Oct. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Dust off last year's holiday decorations and give them new life - affordably. This holiday season, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere for family and friends is easier and more economical with the new Glade(R) Candles Holiday Collection in Apple Cinnamon and limited-edition Bayberry Spice scents. The collection is an ideal complement to holiday decor.
"It's important to me to create a welcoming, cozy atmosphere for my family and friends during the holidays," said Amy Clark, lifestyle expert, mom and founder of MomAdvice.com, an online resource for moms. "I look for holiday scents and decorations that capture the warmth of the season, which is why I like to use the new Glade Candles Holiday Collection. It's inexpensive, comes in festive fragrances and is the perfect finishing touch to my existing decorations."
Many women feel pressed to be the perfect hostess and impress their guests and relatives during the holidays. Now they can rely on a few simple tricks to transform their home into a holiday retreat.
Creating a Holiday Haven
Clark has partnered with Glade candles and offers the following affordable tips to make your home warm and inviting:
-- Subtly Set the Mood: When entertaining, set a scented candle in the
foyer to welcome guests with a unique fragrance and create a friendly
first impression. Select a comforting scent, such as the Glade Scented
Oil Candle in Apple Cinnamon, which has a soothing blend of spiced cider
and homemade apple pie. Personalize each room by featuring a different
scent.
-- Lower the Lights: Dim lighting creates an intimate atmosphere for
holiday gatherings. Turn lights low and use candles to create the
desired effect. Line candles along the mantelpiece or the living room
end table to achieve this look effortlessly.
-- Trim the Table: Forget expensive flower arrangements, make fragrance
your centerpiece. Create a stunning centerpiece with materials you
already have on hand. Find a theme that matches your desired scent -
candy, fruit, greenery or pinecones - and fill small vases with related
items. To add holiday cheer, incorporate taller vases with bright
ornaments, gingerbread cookies or peppermint sticks.
-- Ready the Guest Room: Show guests you care about their comfort by
preparing the guest bathroom ahead of time. Make it welcoming and
peaceful with a candle from the Glade(R) Candles Holiday Collection.
Help guests refresh from travelling with a set of towels and scented
bath salts.
