Decorate the home with scented candles

Scented candles

There are few details that are so classic and so great how can scented candles be. When we prepare to decorate a space, we think first of furniture and textiles, but finally we have to put the special touch with decorative details, and scented candles can be of great help in this regard.

All the scented candles decorate the spaces because they always have colors and come in crystal glasses or can be put in places where they are decorative. But they also give us a very romantic atmosphere and a pleasant aroma.

Where to buy scented candles

Scented candles are an ideal detail for any corner, but we must also think about where we can buy them. These types of details can be found in many of the decoration stores. Today even in clothing stores that have small decorative details we can buy them. On places like Zara Home or Primark Home they always take into account this type of detail for our home and with good prices and better design. The result is a set of candles with great style to be able to decorate the rooms of the home.

Precautions when using them

Scented candles can be an ideal decorative detail, as well as being perfect for creating a romantic atmosphere. Of course, we must be careful when turning them on. They should never be put near a place with textiles or with some material that is highly flammable. On the other hand, it is better to leave them out of the reach of children. If they light up, we should always turn them off before if we leave the room. This way we will avoid major problems.

Candles in mason jars

Scented candles can be purchased in mason jars. Many of them have some type of decorative detail, such as a ribbon or a sticker with the name of the candle. These candles are elegant and look good in any corner. We can use them to decorate a small shelf along with a vase and some books. They can also be put in the fireplace area or on a side table. It is as decorative a detail as vases with flowers can be.

Choose the shade of the candles

It is just as important to choose a good aroma that we like as the tone of the candles. At present, scented candles have all kinds of colors that can be achieved in wax. So you can buy the ones that best suit your decor. The Nordic style is very popular, and if we like elegant environments, it is best to choose those that have neutral and relaxing tones such as white or beige. With these tones we are almost always going to be right when choosing details to decorate, even with candles.

For those environments that are boho chic and more energetic, then we can use the scented candles of intense tones to give color to the corners. They can also be a touch of color in environments where we have neutral tones. As we say, the candles are a decorative detail and we can use them as such to give color and smell to the spaces.

Beware of aromas

A good aroma can help us relax, but if it is bothersome or too strong, it can have the opposite effect. There are people for whom strong odors even give them a headache. So before buying the candles it is always better to smell them to see if their aroma is strong or if we like that type of smell. To relax we they often use scents like lavender or vanilla, but there are many others. Avoid buying those that you do not like too much or you will not use them. Even if they are not lit, they can give off an odor. That is why at this point we have to look for what we like. If we doubt, it is better to choose candles that have little odor, because when lighting them they smell more, to test if they really become annoying or we like them and relax.

Make your candles at home

Candles for home

You can also make a center with candles at home to decorate. Smaller candles are sold loose and are often used for burners and glass jars. They are a small detail that can help us decorate spaces with scented candles. Use the old glass vases that you have, even if they have different sizes, and clean them well. You can add candles and also a lace or burlap fabric ribbon that gives a vintage charm to the detail. There are many ways to use these candles.

You can also catch some candles to include in a centerpiece, although you have to be careful if they light up. In this case they are usually decorative. Use candles and some flowers to give that center a special touch.
