Candle holders are traditionally used to hold candles upright and firmly in place – because an unstable candle is never safe, especially around soft furnishings like floor cushions and bedroom blinds. But with so many luxurious holders available nowadays, candle sticks are also making a name for themselves as designer decor pieces, and we are absolutely here for it.

FAQs
The safest candle holders are products that are non-flammable and stable, such as thick glass or ceramics. Of course, that doesn’t mean wooden holders are a no-go, it just means extra caution should be taken when using them.
Aside from candles, you can put plants, flowers (fresh or artificial) and decorative objects like spheres or Christmas decorations in candle holders. If you are using jar holders, they double as useful storage vessels for craft supplies and makeup brushes.
To hold a candle in place, our favourite technique (from decades of candle love!) is to carefully drip some melted wax into the base of your holder and then place the candle on top of it. The wax works like glue, holding your candle proudly upright.
Remember to never leave candles burning unattended, especially around kids, pets and loose furnishings.
