Sparkling Ideas for Valentine’s Day!

Every day is special and Valentine’s Day is especially sweet and romantic.  Or maybe it’s a fiery hot inferno of love at your house!   However you celebrate this day honoring St. Valentine, our Heart Sparklers might be the perfect addition.

Our heart shaped sparklers are carefully packaged to make sure there is no damage to the pyrotechnic material on each metal rod.  There are 6 sparklers in each box and those are bundled together with sturdy tape at each end and in the middle to prevent and bouncing, banging or breaking.  Then the bundle is encased in an envelope of bubble wrap and inserted into a card board box.    

We recommend using a sharp pair of scissors or a box cutter to carefully cut away the sticky tape.  If you are preparing these as favors for your romantic celebration, don’t forget to do this ahead of time!

Also remember to have a butane lighter handy for lighting the first sparkler.  A regular match just isn’t quite hot enough to do the job!  Each Heart Sparkler has a black Easy-Lit tip – just like all of our metal wire sparklers.  It really does make a difference!  Once you have one sparkler lit up, it’s easy to dip an unlit sparkler into the lit sparkler to keep the love light burning!

We matched our Heart Sparklers with Valentine’s Day cards and inserted them into a small vase with classic candy hearts.  Super cute!  And we’re willing to bet that you have great ideas as well.  We would love to see what you do with your Heart Sparklers.  Send us a picture at info@buysparklers.com or post on our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/buysparklers

We hope you have a fantastic Valentine’s Day!  Love, BuySparklers.com

Sparklers: A Brief History of Your Favorite Party Favor

Historians credit the Chinese with the discovery of fireworks many centuries ago. It is thought that Chinese alchemists mixed certain ingredients which unwittingly lead to the earliest form of gunpowder. These early pyrotechnicians put the volatile substance into bamboo shoots which were thrown into fire to create a spark accompanied by a blast – thus, the first firework was set off.

During the European Renaissance, pyrotechnic schools were training artists to design elaborate, vibrant firework displays. From Europe, firecrackers made their way to the colonial United States. Fireworks have been ingrained in American culture from the earliest days of this nation, as they were used to celebrate the very first anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

The fireworks industry has evolved since then to include smaller, more individualized fireworks known as sparklers. While firecrackers are designed to create a controlled explosion, sparklers burn over a long period of time and produce a shower of sparks – hence the name sparklers!

Sparklers can be used hand in hand with firecrackers for traditional holiday celebrations on the Fourth of July or New Years; but in recent years, sparklers have begun to be used to adorn cakes or at weddings to create an electrifying grand send-off for the bride and groom.
