What are good ways for a small start up business to advertise in a unusual yet effective way/?

I have a small candle company that I just started and I am looking for unique ways to advertise my business aside from Yellow Pages, Internet Ads, Flyers....

I would love some unique ideals that maybe centered around the candles? Any ideals?

I've thought about making little cute candle samples and taking them to wedding planning, party planning, real estate offices but what about individual customers?

Radio. Inexpensive and a broad reach.

give a list to some of your friends and they will spread them

A really unusual way could be if you know who you really want to target, sending them a wick and a little ball of wax, and tell them if they want a full candle, get in touch with you! It's a spin on the sending a bag of tea or coffee, and telling them to sit down with you for a few minutes, but it works! I've done this myself!

Good luck.
