Candle Facts
Here are some interesting facts about candles. Candles can be the perfect gift for anyone you know. Contact me to find out how to enjoy the fantastic candles that Gold Canyon offers. Once you try them you'll never want to use anything else!!
U.S. retail sales of candles are estimated at approximately $2 billion annually, excluding sales of candle accessories.
Candles are used in 7 out of 10 U.S. households.
Candles generally can be categorized into 11 basic types: tapers, votives, pillars, container (or jar) candles, tea lights, liturgical candles, outdoor candles, floating candles, novelty candles, utility candles, and birthday candles.
Manufacturer surveys show that 90% of all candles are purchased by women.
Votives, container candles and pillars are currently the most popular types of candles with American consumers.
Candle industry research indicates that the most important factors affecting candle sales are scent, color, cost and shape.
The retail price of a candle generally ranges from approximately 50? for a votive to $30 for a large pillar or jar candle. Highly unusual or embellished artisan candles can be $200 or more
Approximately 35% of candle sales occur during the Christmas/Holiday season. Non-seasonal business accounts for approximately 65% of candle sales.
Consumers are increasingly purchasing candles as a focal point for their home decor, and for aromatherapy- like relaxation and stress reduction.
Fragrance is by far the most important characteristic impacting candle purchases today, with three-fourths of candle buyers saying it is "extremely important" or "very important" in their selection of a candle.
The majority of U.S. consumers use their candles within a week of purchase.
Nine out of ten candle users say they use candles to make a room feel comfortable or cozy.
Approximately three-fourths of candle users say they typically burn candles for 4 hours or less per sitting.
Candle users say they most frequently burn candles in the living room (42%), followed by the kitchen (18%) and the bedroom (13%).
Approximately one in five women say they use candles to decorate the yard, patio or other exterior areas, as well as the interior of their home.
Both men and women consider candles to be an always-acceptable and highly appreciated gift for a wide variety of occasions.
Candle purchasers say they view candles as an appropriate gift for the holidays (76%), as a house warming gift (74%), a hostess/dinner party gift (66%), a thank you (61%) and as adult birthday gifts (58%).

Going back to school
After a lot of thought, debates and discussions with my husband, I have decided it?s time to go back to college. It?s been just a little over 10 years since I took any classes so I?m kinda nervous about starting over again.
I?ll be studying Internet Marketing through Rasmussen College?s online program. As long as everything goes ok with my financial aid I?ll be starting classes in January and I can?t wait!!! Being able to go to school online has to be one of the greatest innovations ever! It?s going to so convenient and I would never have been able to study this if I was restricted to going to a real ?brick and mortar? type school. I love the internet :)
Since I?ll be studying Internet Marketing I?m gonna make more of an effort with this blog and will definitely be posting as I move through this new adventure. I?m still searching for my ?niche? for this blog, who knows, this might be it :) I have decided to work more on learning about how to market and make money off this blog as I move through the course. It would be fabulous to make enough money off it in the next two years so that once I?m finished with school I can just write on big check to the loan company and be done with them forever!! I don?t see that happening, but it?s fun to dream.
Be warned though, I?m sure I won?t always be happy about this decision so I may make nasty, mean or down right evil posts occasionally. LOL
There is also the possibility that promotional opportunity may be coming open at work which I would have to go for. If I get that then I will officially be biting off more than I can chew. But that?s ok. I work best under pressure, so bring it on!!
