Tea lights and tea light holders

Tea lights are small in size but don’t underestimate their power in creating a cosy glow. Tea light holders help keep the tea lights in place with enough support. Lanterns and candle holders can provide a defined place for candles while adding another layer to the room’s lighting.

Votive candles and votive holders

Everyone enjoys the gentle glow of votive candles. Short and decorative, they come in various shapes, styles and colours and are versatile, practical, and look beautiful in any room.

Pillar candles

Pillar candles are made out of a more hardened wax, giving them the ability to stand upright on their own without a holder. They also have a relatively long burn time and are a popular choice in Australia. Pillar candles and glass holders can be paired to balance the solid form of the candle with a lighter, more transparent finish.

The advantages of high quality candles and holders

Candles and holders help make your house a home, so it makes sense that you’ll want to choose the best quality products. In Australia, high quality products can burn longer and more evenly, and contain better wax-plus they’ll often feature a nicer scent than their cheaper counterparts. High quality holders are likely safer to use and you can rest easy knowing that your candles are under control.

How to choose candles and holders that’s right for you

Candles and candle holders are very personalised to your taste in design, scent, and overall look. First, you need to decide what the purpose of your candle will be. Is it to create a relaxing atmosphere? Do you want to illuminate certain areas of your home? Next, think about how long you’ll be using it for and whether you’ll want it to be plain, scented, decorative, or minimalistic. The design of your candle stands and holders is important too so think about whether you want them to draw the eye or not and how their design might suit the rest of your decor. Large candles and holders can create a stronger focal point, while smaller pieces suit shelves, tables and other compact surfaces.

Do candles help you relax?

Yes, many people find them to be incredibly relaxing. Their flickering light and warm glow is scientifically proven to calm the nerves, reduce stress, and can even be a great tool to utilise with meditation or yoga. Those with botanical scents like lavender or chamomile can also be incredibly soothing.

Should you let a candle burn all day or night?

You should always follow the instructions from the manufacturer about responsible burn times. As a general rule, most are safe to burn for at least four hours at a time. It’s unwise to leave them burning overnight or unattended due to the risk of fire.

What types of candle holders are there?

There are many types of holders available for purchase in Australia. Most of these are decorative and come in a variety of colours and styles. Popular holders include tealight candle holders, taper holders and votive holders.

Are candle holders important?

Despite how sturdy your candle may seem, a holder is always a great idea. When a candle burns, wax can drip down, so having a holder to collect the residue will keep your table area clean. Holders also reduce the chance of anything toppling over and creating a fire hazard.
