Fragrance has the unique ability to transform our mood, elevate our senses and add a special ambiance to any room. Use top-quality fragranced items throughout your home, varying scents from room to room and even “layering” scents in the same room. Experiment and create your own special touch.

Room Surfaces
Wall surfaces are sometimes overlooked as we often focus on tabletops and forget those big blank canvases that beg to be decorated! Use paint color to transform a room, and watch the glow of beautiful candlelight bounce off your walls and create patterns of interest. Warm, darker tones create a feeling of richness especially at night, while lighter earth tones evoke nature and are compatible with most furniture and accessories.

Seasonality
Turn a number of “everyday” home accents into a seasonal display by adding just a few simple elements. Tuck pinecones, ornaments, miniature gifts, dried beans or seashells inside a glass hurricane holder to help tell the story of the season. Choose a candle color and scent that adds to the experience and reflects the season.

Multiples
Even the simplest of home accents can add big drama when displayed in multiples. Try two large hurricanes on a table with a tall vase filled with flowers or branches between them. Better yet, place these on a table in front of a large mirror. Or, try three, four, five or even six of the same small candleholders all in a row on any stable surface. Votive candleholders look especially nice this way. When doing so, we suggest using the same color candles.

Candlelight
Multiple points of candlelight add an instant glow to any room. Floater candles, in particular, add real drama by combining “fire” & water. The reflection of candlelight off the water and bowl is exquisite.

Room Lighting
Simply turn down the lights, add multiple points of candlelight around the room, and you’re on your way to creating a room right out of your favorite magazine.

Color
Color makes one of the biggest impacts when it comes to creating ambiance. A single bold item in purple, red, or even orange adds “punch” in a room. Neutral home accents let you experiment with different colored candles to get just the look you want.

Height Variation
Whether it’s displaying different sized candles or using home accents in varying heights, multiple points of candlelight at different height levels creates a lot of visual interest and ambiance.

Reflections
Mirrors create stunning visual impact, thus adding their own special ambiance. Placing candles on mirrors automatically doubles the impact of candlelight and color. Use one large mirror flat on a table with candles on it, or display smaller mirrors in multiples on a wall or mantel for an even bigger statement.
