Eye-Catching Candle Displays

When candles make an appearance in unexpected places, they're sure to enliven the atmosphere.

Light the Hearth

Give your fireplace a new glow.

If you don't need to use your fireplace to help heat your home, try filling the firebox with pillar candles of all sizes. You'll get the effect of firelight without the mess of wood ashes. Add fresh greenery and gilded leaves, but be sure to keep plant materials well away from the candles' flames. This idea is also good for older homes where the chimney has been sealed off but the hearth remains."
