1. Mason Jar Candle Lights: Simply use a Mason jar as a candle holder. You can paint it, or you can add ribbons, rope, and even glitter to it. Mason jars aren’t just for canning and tea; they can be for shabby chic and even upscale décor with the right additions.
2. Reflections: A great way to make candles do double duty is to arrange many of them over a mirror for display. Add small touches such as stones, glitter, garland, and other items that will make the candles stand out. The candle can also stand in front of a decorative mirror for effect.
3. Fireplace: If you don’t want to dirty up your fireplace, you can still use it. Get different sizes, shapes, and heights of candles and put them inside the fireplace with the flue open so the smoke will go out. Light them all, styling your fireplace with candles.
4. Making Your Own Candles: Making your own candles is not as difficult as you might think. With some simple instructions, you can create a beautiful décor piece. Why not try this sand wax kit, where no melting and pouring is involved.
5. Float Them: Tea light candles can float, as can round-shaped, smaller candles. You can even colour the water with a little food coloring to make them look even more special.
6. Paint It: Whatever container you want to use for your candles, it will look awesome painted. You can stencil different shapes inside any container so that when the candle is lit, it imparts different shapes on the wall.
7. Tea Cups: A great way to transform candles is to put them into tea cups. Buy used teacups at thrift shops and put candles in them, or make your own with a candle-making kit and pour them into the teacups.
8. Ribbons and Rope: You can change any container with a little ribbon or a rope to tie around it to make it look different. Try lace, ribbons, hemp rope and more. You can even use sparkly garland to make it more festive.
There are many ways you can dress up a simple candle to make it even more decorative or festive. All you have to do is think about the mood you want to project and how you can accomplish that. Don’t be afraid to try things. However, be careful about having flammable things near the open flame of your candle once you light it.
Of course, you can also purchase pre-made luxury and unique candles. Check out the beautiful candles and other gift items from LavishCo.
