5 ideas to decorate your home with candles

Malika Franzo

Candles and tea lights have become a real fashion fad, and for very good reasons. Their simplicity doesn’t stop them from adding a warm almost magical atmosphere to any room: an excellent reason to choose candles to decorate your home.

Why you should decorate your home with candles

Candles can be considered authentic design objects that complete the interiors of any home with their personal touch. During the day, when they aren’t lit, they serve as perfect accessories to add that final touch to your interior design. But the evening is when they create light and shade effects that add a pleasant, relaxing atmosphere to your home.

This feeling will be intensified even further if your home is heated by the romantic fire of a stove or fireplace (you can find one to suit your requirements from those produced by Palazzetti: go to the website now!)

Back to candles, today we would like to give you some original tips to make them even more special. A bit of creativity is all you need to enhance their magic!

5 original ideas

The first idea is to create candles inside typical Mason jars that you can decorate as you prefer, even adding a label to identify their scent for instance.

We suggest you try this original project if you are good with wax and benefit from lots of manual dexterity: not everyone can create a candle using a fragile eggshell!

Lastly, we would like to end with a perfectly organic candle that doesn’t even need wax. Cut some orange peel into a semi-circle, pour a little vegetable oil on it and use the central pith as a wick: your homemade candle is now ready!
