Ballet4Boyz Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 (edited) Hi everyone, just thought I’d share a new gift I’ve designed for all the Ballet dancers out there .....including the boys !! If you’re looking for a gift to give the ballet dancer in your life - or maybe you’re a dance teacher looking for something different to treat your older students ...... these might fit the bill. I’m a mum of a male vocational student and have often found it difficult to find a ballet related gift for him ...... so I thought why not develop my own !! They are lovely scented soy candles with ballet quotes, with suitable options for males & females . They are available in different designs, shades & designer fragrances !! Some designs would make great “Good Luck” gifts prior to auditions or performances or “Well Done” gifts following all their hard won successes ! The designs can be viewed here under the dance range heading : http://www.tranquilmomentscandlecompany.com Watch out for other designs in the future covering other dance genres. Moderators...... hope this post is ok here !! Best wishes to all involved with the audition process this year !!

meadowblythe Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Just love these - such a great pressie for the male ballet dancers in our lives. Not sure if they would survive postage to Europe and definitely won't go in hand luggage. But definitely tempted to try posting. How much (approx.) do they weigh? Also a lovely post performance gift for musical DD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballet4Boyz Posted April 25, 2020 Author Share Posted April 25, 2020 Hi Meadowblythe ....they weigh 350g and the jars are quite sturdy . My son really likes his - especially with the after-shave fragrance , it’s always been a chore finding things a bit more masculine with a ballet theme ! 😊 The dance charm can be removed - so some of the designs would suit any performers such as a vocalist, musician, actor etc kind regards B4B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You really are going to have to have a word with your laptop, Jan. I seem to remember it booking you a flight and a ballet ticket to somewhere in Eastern Europe a few years ago ... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pups_mum Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 They look lovely B4B. Are you able to post to an address different to the person who is paying? I'd quite like to send my DD a little pick me up but I can't get out to the post office myself at present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballet4Boyz Posted April 26, 2020 Author Share Posted April 26, 2020 Hi Pups Mum, yes of course, I’ve sent you a DM B4B 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan McNulty Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Hello B4B, My parcel arrived on Thursday and I've just opened it (after quarantine in my porch!). It's actually a birthday present for a friend but I'm absolutely thrilled with it. The packaging was VERY secure. Thanks again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bothballet Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 These are fantastic! Such a great idea x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballet4Boyz Posted May 2, 2020 Author Share Posted May 2, 2020 Thanks Bothballet ..... it comes from always looking for a masculine dance related gift for my son & discovering he loves candles .... so decided to combine the two. I’m expanding it dance wise but also for other types of performers such as vocalists, musicians etc. x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a great idea you've had B4B. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dance*is*life Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Great idea! It is difficult finding gifts for male students. I once gave a boy student a little green frog on a key chain and added the greeting thzt one day I was sure he would turn into a Prince! He did too 😅 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
