Status: offline 		if you buy them at any "typical" store...get the basic emergency candles.  They burn at a lower temp than scented, colored candles and are less dangerous overall.

Otherwise.....google wax play candles or some such thing.  There are companies that make colorful candles with low melting points for wax play.

Status: offline 		dollar store...the pretty ones...hehe...usually the prayer ones work pretty well...different colors for designs...do a search for "wax"  up in the upper right hand corner of the page, to find different techniques...

edited to add...just had an idea...does anyone remember those things that they used to have where you would spin the paper really fast and drop the paint on it and it would create a circular splatter....could you do that witha really large lazy susan type thing a sub and some fully melted prayer candles?

asked and answered unless you have more questions about wax and candle play.....

white unscented parafin is your friend if you are purchasing from a general retail or a dollar store

otherwise bdsm websites and kink stores sell those made in pretty colors specifically for wax play.

I've heard good things about kosher candles. I think you can get those in just about any grocery store. We use some I bought at an adult store and while I'm not very happy with them, they are huge and we haven't used them up yet.

Alternately get a paraffin bath and blocks of paraffin. Takes a while to melt but then you could ladle it on as well as just drop it.

I LOVE my parafin bath for so many fun things!

I think some of them are red but I'm not sure. Of course, when I think of religious candles I think of the candles in the glass towers with pictures of Mary and Jesus on them. I think that would kinda weird me out to see during a scene.

I just did the shopping for dinner and came across the candles. *grins* Now the two are forever linked in my head... Jesus candles and sex.

I can put these things an inch from my skin, drop the wax, and only suffer a little reddening. Short of dropping the wax in an eye, I cant imagine how anyone could possible cause something that could be seriously classified as "injury" with these.
