Candle Displays

If you prefer modern style, you may go for a simple candle display with no candle holders, screens, stands and so on. Buy some pillar candles and place them right in the fireplace – voila! If you don’t want to clean the fireplace and the floor from wax, put your candles on plates or trays. To make your display cooler, you may add touches of seasonal or holiday decor: greenery, blooms, figurines, pinecones, fake deer heads and much more. Make a black backdrop to highlight your neutral candles in front of it, or go for a mirror backdrop that will reflect candle light.
