Select The Perfect Candle
Holders
To Show Your Personal Style
Have you ever found a scented candle so perfect you couldn’t
resist buying it, or received a beautiful pillar as a gift,
only to realize you didn’t have the right holder for it?
Whether you’re rummaging through your home, searching local
shops or shopping online, there are so many choices to consider
that you’re bound to find just the right candle holder
for the job.
Candle Holders for Pretty
Pillars
If pillars are your passion, the choice of
candle holders seems almost endless! Round pillars can
sit atop glass or brass pillar holders, and even square pillars
have a variety of holder choices. The growing
popularity in recent years of hurricane candleholders has
resulted in an incredible variety from which to choose: large
to small, clear or textured glass, and many even come with
metal accents or wooden bases.
Delicate Votive Candle Holders
Even your choices for the tiny votive run from
formal to casual, simple to intricate. A single votive can be
placed in a favorite, heat proof glass holder to add a little
glow to any spot you wish. But fill several matching
glass cylinders and you have a set that you can line up along
the mantle or cluster on a table top. Tweak the look even
more by choosing between subtle frosted glass or the sparkling
look of crystal. There are even tea light stakes,
designed to stick in sand or gardens, to bring candlelight
outside on soft summer nights.
Dramatic Hurricanes
The hurricane makes a wonderful centerpiece for
dining or coffee tables. Fill the bottom with colored glass
gems and nestle your candle in place. Or, the next time
you’re at the shore, collect some sand and shells to fill the
bottom, and then nestle in a candle scented with the fragrance
of ocean breezes. What a wonderful memento of your
trip.
Create Your Own
Style
Prefer something contemporary? Set a
vanilla scented candle in a glass container filled with coffee
beans: instant “latte”! Or combine form and function with
an Asian inspired, square pewter plate, with corners that curve
up ever so slightly. Round glass plates, some with ribbed
edges to catch the wax, come in a multitude of colors and serve
a simple, utilitarian purpose without compromising your
décor.
Thinking formal? If you don’t have your grandmother’s
treasured silver candelabra, don’t despair of finding a
treasure of your own. The classic designs are still out
there, but you’ll be amazed at what’s new. From brass to
wood, contemporary and angled, or soft and flowing, there’s a
candelabra to match your personality, and fill a special dinner
party with subtle ambience.
Sconce candleholders are a new and creative trend.
Want the flickering glow but don’t want your candles front and
center? Or perhaps you have small children, or pets, and
you’d like to keep your candles out of reach. A sconce is
the perfect choice. Pick an iron work design for a more
contemporary look, or check out the creativity of leaf and
floral pattern work that’s become so popular lately.
Clearly, when it comes to picking the perfect holder for the
perfect candle, your choices are as limitless as your
imagination!
