There is no better time of the year than Christmas. What better way to celebrate the season than with lighted decorations? And some of the best and most beautiful holiday decorations are Christmas candles.
Christmas is a joyous holiday that is celebrated all around the world for centuries. Candles have been associated with the season as they add warmth, light, and fragrance to the home.
Christmas candles come in different styles and scents that it is difficult to choose the perfect one.
Styles
Candles for the holiday season come in jars, as votives in glass holders, in tea lights, and as pillars.
Votive candles are popular small candles typically about two inches tall. These candles require a container before they are lit.
Tea lights are very popular as they are small, lightweight, and easy to use. Buying a variety of scents in tea light size provides the opportunity to offer a choice at home without purchasing a larger candle. Tea lights make it easy to change fragrances more often and are beautiful accents throughout the home.
Pillar candles are traditionally red, green, white, and gold. Whether displayed in beautiful holders, as a part of a table centerpiece or alone with without a holder, these beautiful candles help put the merry in Christmas. They come in different sizes, and some even have multiple wicks.
Fragrance
There are dozens of fragrances that are reminiscent of the holiday season. Their scents fall into five categories: sweet, fruity, spicy, woodsy, and floral. Scents such as Frasier fir, cranberry, mulberry, sugar cookies, apple spice, gingerbread, and vanilla add richness to the Christmas holidays.
Christmas candles have been part of the holiday season for a long time. We use them to get in the festive mood and to fill our home with the wonderful scents of the holiday season.
