Nothing says Christmas more than just that, a wood burning fireplace, loads of candles burning, a beautifully decorated tree and house, and of course the family all sitting around laughing and drinking hot cocoa. With the shops already blaring those holiday tunes and with the decorations abundant it's hard not to begin to feel a sense of the season, even though it's only mid-November! I too have been bit by the holiday bug and have found myself starting to drag out the holiday decorations at home, and I've even slowly started decorating my office at work - my colleagues must think I'm nuts! But I can't help it, there's just something so magical and wonderful about this time of year, even though we haven't had a lick of snow, I can't stop myself from lusting after that holiday feeling.
This post is dedicated to the candlestick and how there is something so beautiful about a tapered candle nestled into a vessel which can in-and-of itself transcend time. A sexy throwback to an era when the candle was all there was to illuminate the home. Depending on whether you fancy the rustic or have a fair for art deco, there is a candlestick out there to satisfy everyone's tastes, so be sure to pick up a few of these to decorate your home with over the holidays and bring back that feeling of a time gone by.
As you can see above, the candlesticks/candelabras I selected vary significantly in design from the very modern - the red and white candlesticks & red candelabra from IKEA, to the very traditional - the 19th century zinc finished candelabra from Restoration Hardware & the mercury glass candlesticks from Pottery Barn; and everything else in-between. No matter what your style or decor is for the holidays be sure to add in some candlesticks and light those candles on fire!
Happy Shopping!
