<p>But what if you could personalize a candle by not only selecting the right color or fragrance, but with a photo?  Or adding a sentiment, quote, poem, biblical verse or something else to it?  What if you had the opportunity to create a candle so perfect for your recipient that they might just be speechless?  You would do it!  Why wouldn&#8217;t you?  Oh, because you think it would be too expensive?  Not. At. All.  You would easily pay this much or more for a <strong><a title="Yankee Candle" href="http://www.yankeecandle.com/cgi-bin/ycbvp/listing.jsp?category=/Retail/Top%20Sellers/Jar%20Candles" target="_blank">candle purchased at a store</a> </strong>that, although a fine option, would not be nearly as heartfelt as a custom candle.</p>
<p><strong>And don&#8217;t you want your gift to be special?</strong> Something that stands out from the rest of the crowd?  Something that with its very existence, shows what thought and love went into the selection and making of this present?  Of course you do!</p>
<p><strong><a title="Investigate Madison Hill Candles!" href="http://madisonhill.info/AboutUs.html" target="_blank">Madison Hill Candles</a></strong> can help you make the perfect candle gift for a variety of occasions.  Birthdays, Mother&#8217;s Day, Valentine&#8217;s Day, Anniversary&#8230;I could list nearly every holiday or occasion here!  Madison knows the art of thoughtful gift giving <em><a title="Investigate this wonderful guest post by Madison Hill!" href="http://www.thegiftdetective.com/blog/archives/4031" target="_blank"><strong>(she even did a guest post, here!)</strong></a></em> and will be able to help you create a gift that will be an outstanding example of how much you care for your recipient.</p>

<p><strong><a title="Investigate Mother's Day!" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mother's_Day" target="_blank">Mother&#8217;s Day</a></strong> will be here before you know it <em>(May 9th!)</em>, and she has a <strong><a title="Fill out this form to begin designing the perfect present!" href="http://madisonhill.info/MothersDayDesignServices.html" target="_blank">simple form</a></strong> that will help you get started making a beautiful, custom candle for mom.  Get creative!  Madison Hill is a master chandler and can help you make this gift become a work of art, not just a candle.  Does your mom love a specific flower or do you want to embed a special photo in the candle?  Madison can make this happen!  After filling out the form, Madison will contact you to continue the design process to help make sure you are creating a one of a kind gift, sure to bring tears to her eyes and a smile to your mother&#8217;s heart!</p>
<p>Madison also has an <strong><a title="Visit Madion Hill's Etsy shop!  " href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/Madisonhill" target="_blank">Etsy shop</a></strong> where you can purchase some candles that are really gorgeous and ready to go! <em> (prices range from $14.99-$24.99)</em> My favorite one from her shop is pictured at the top of this post!  Isn&#8217;t that beautiful?  Below, you can see a gallery of just a few of her creations.  <em>(all photos courtesy of Madison Hill Candles)</em></p>
<p><em>What do you think your own mother would love to be incorporated into a candle?  Don&#8217;t you think she would be wowed by a gift like this? </em></p>
<p><strong>Happy gifting! </strong><br />
