Touch Up your Home with Designer Candles

Once you are finished remodeling the physical aspects of your home the stunning part comes because now you can add the finishing touches to your new home design. One of the most popular finishing touches that interior designers add is candles because they add a glow and atmosphere that is both warm and inviting. The lighting effect is also unique because it is unlike any other lighting effect that electrical bulbs can provide. Adding a bit of classical ambience to your home, candles simply make a great decorating choice.

Of course, in order to create this ambience you need to know what type of candles will provide the best look. Most interior designers recommend that candles be placed into the home with staggering lengths and shapes because they become more a centerpiece this way instead of just candles placed between other eye drawing centerpieces. One popular way to arrange candles is to take a group of three that are placed in a tier down fashion.

Regardless of how you choose to arrange your candles you need to place something in the area that will help you control melting wax when they are lit. Candle stands are not going to do the job so it may be a great idea to purchase decorative trays. Thus, instead of simply placing candles individually on a mantelpiece you now have a tray that collects the candles and makes them look as if they are a feng shui like centerpiece.

Pillar candles are the best choice for this type of arrangement, but you can add your own twist or spin to the look based on your own tastes. For instance, ball candles or shaped candles that are stacked at different heights can also help create a great centerpiece that you can claim all of the credit for. You also may want to look at color schemes as well since candles come in all types of colors and can be carefully chosen to match your already existing décor. Thus you get the lighting effect, dramatic centerpiece, and creative effect all in one effort that blends perfectly into your home.
