One can use wax play candles and no other toys during the play. But there are also fun ways of mixing different practices. Let’s talk about candles and ropes. There are a couple of ways you can combine them.
Just Stay Still
First of all, in case you want to draw a greater accent to the wax, you can use ropes just to tie the bottom partner’s hands and legs or to fix them in a desired position. The feeling of not being able to avoid the drops and having no control over the area of impact can be very sweet.
Adding the Touch
The other scenario implies mixing of rope touch and wax drops. It is implementing wax candles to a shibari session. After making a desired tie pattern the top partner can drop some wax on the areas between ropes. This will add a very special feeling of an overlapped touch for the bottom partner.
Artisan's Play
There is also another, more complicated, variant of implementing a candle into a shibari session. It can be done during suspension. The rigger can place a burning candle somewhere between the rope strings above the bottom partner, so the candle drips constantly and on the one and the same spot. This creates additional constant dots of impact and a feeling of inevitability of hot wax touch.
The rope and wax combination can be implemented in many ways, but the important thing one should always take seriously is safety. See some beautiful shibari sets at our bdsm candles
