GO TEXAN Style
Tip of the Month

Each year consider buying a special ornament for the children in the family. It will serve as an annual reminder of the holidays you've shared together and will also provide them with a wonderful collection of ornaments to use on their tree when they have their own home.

Do you have a favorite family holiday tradition you'd like to share? E-mail us so we can post it for others to enjoy.

Candles Make Your Gift List Glow  

Gift giving got you on the go? Stop and smell the candles. The Texas-made candles, that is.

Available in countless shapes, scents and sizes, Texas-made candles make great gifts that can be appreciated all year long. Even better, they're easy to find when it's time to thank a holiday host or shop for that hard-to-buy-for person.

While candles are indeed a reliable standby, many Texas-made varieties go beyond the wax and wick. At Angelic Candles of Lubbock, an alternate line of Quickmelt candles uses a warmer rather than a flame to spark sweet smells throughout the home or office. From fruit fragrances to the distinctive smells of coffee and leather, Angelic Candles has a Quickmelt scent that is sure to spice up any room.

If it's soy that brings joy to your candle recipient, Mystic Moments of Marble Falls specializes in clean burning and biodegradable soy candles that are ideal for those with a nose for environmental conservation. Available with or without color (to preserve the natural state of soy) Mystic candles are available in earthy and floral scents such as chamomile, cinnamon, vanilla and roses.

At Spring Country Candles, 100 percent soy wax candles are scented like pumpkin cheesecake crunch and winter candy apple. Your sweet tooth may envy your nose!

When it's time for gift giving or just because, Texas-made candles make a perfect match. To learn more about Texas-made candles, search for other specific Texas-made gifts or simply browse the array of products made in Texas, visit www.gotexan.org/.
