Sloan Creates Unique Irish Gift

Blending craft with heritage, the Sloan family creates the Emerald Isle 04 Irish Candle Collection. This unique Irish gift is just in time for Saint Patricks Day.

Huntsville, AL (PRWEB) January 10, 2004 --The Irish are a group of people very proud of their heritage and tradition. One only needs to watch the Saint Patricks Day parades in cities like Boston and New York to get an inkling of their pride. The culture is itself full of fantastic legends and lore both new and old. The wife of one Irishman, Mary Sloan, honors her husbands heritage with the creation of an Irish candle gift set that captures some of the most unique elements of the Irish.

Emerald Isle 04 Irish Candle Collection consists of ten scented votive candles, two each of five symbolic scents, plus one right sized votive holder. All of the candles are various shades of green. The collections candles include Danny Boy, Wild Irish Rose, Wintergreen, Irish Crème, and Shamrock. While the latter two have obvious connections, the former three have more subtle meanings as expressed by Mrs. Sloan.

Each candle in the collection has a special meaning. The Danny Boy candle is inspired by a popular Irish song heard around St. Patricks Day. Written by Edward Weatherly, Danny Boy captures the love a woman has for her Irish man who is heading off to war. Interestingly, the song is one of 100 sets of lyrics set to the same music! The candle is a spicy romantic masculine scent. To compliment a womans love for a man, the Wild Irish Rose votive symbolizes a mans love for a woman as described by the song, My Wild Irish Rose. The lyrics and music were written by Chauncey Olcott. The candle has a soft feminine rose smell. The Wintergreen votive, and its crisp mint scent, represents the changing landscape of Ireland. Two hundred years ago Fens covered hundreds of square miles of Ireland but are now becoming extinct as they were drained and reclaimed for other uses. The Fens in Ireland serve as home for many plants such as Wintergreen.

This unique, and very symbolic, set of Irish inspired candles is available for purchase on the Internet. Los Tomases Candle Makers LLC manufacturers and distributes the Emerald Isle 04 Irish Candle Collection through their web site http://www.OnlyVotives.com.
