Aside from making a room smell incredible, candles can also blend in as nice decorative pieces throughout the house. With so many different scents, holders, and sizes, there are endless possibilities of decorating with candles. Here are some tips on how to decorate with candles in every room of your house.
Quick Tips For Decorating With Candles
- Make sure you take caution with burning candles, especially if you have kids in the house – never leave a burning candle unattended. You can also use LED candles instead just to be safer.
- Don’t combine too many different scented candles in one room because it can be too overpowering and some scents will not mix well together.
- While this list recommends certain scents for each room, you can also have fun playing around with seasonal scents such as pumpkin spice in the fall, gingerbread and peppermint during Christmas, and much more.

How To Decorate With Candles In The Kitchen
When it comes to using candles in the kitchen, it’s best to match your color scheme and room decor style. For instance, if you have a rustic style kitchen, put candles inside of lanterns and place them on the table or on the kitchen island.
Use decorative candle holders to match the colors of your kitchen. If you have limited counter space, use smaller candles scattered throughout. This way, you still can put fresh scents into your kitchen without taking up too much room.
You can even go for a hanging candle light fixture in your kitchen. This can be displayed over your kitchen table or island to brighten up the room
