Candle Wall Sconces - Sconce Candle Holders Create Atmosphere

Candle Wall Sconces - Sconce Candle Holders Create Atmosphere

Candle Wall Sconces are essentially wall candle holders. A wall candle holder and candle creates an ambiance hard to emulate and they are a cheap light source if you have access to affordable candles with long burn times. Beeswax candles are particularly good with candle wall sconces because they burn slow and bright. This means you can choose them for stairwells and dining areas and not have to replace them every time you uses them. The best thing about beeswax candles is that they are known to clean the air rather than pollute it.

Dining by candlelight is romantic and mood provoking. Finding a safe place on the table can be a challenge especially for large dinner parties and family gatherings. Having a candle wall sconce or two solves this problem. Whatever your style or décor there are candle wall sconces for you.

Above left is a photo of a very ornate wall candle holder. In great design contrast, this rustic candle wall sconce on the right still makes a huge impact in a very different décor style.


Wrought iron wall sconces are hugely popular in both modern and old fashioned country decorating.

Make Your Own Christmas Garland in Candy Cane Style

The garland typically represents honor, heralds a celebration and brings praise. The garland can be a very symbolic as well as beautiful decorative item.

This candy cane style garland is easy to make and is loaded with meaning.

The candy cane represents the shepherds crook carried by Shepherds in the Christmas Nativity Story. The shepherd crook was used to hook around the neck of a lost sheep stuck in the briars or on a cliffs edge and pull him to safety. It is symbolic of the amazing life saving event about to take place in history. The birth of Jesus was the beginning of our salvation.

The white flowers are like the Christmas Rose that symbolizes deep devotion in the Christian Faith. The story behind this tells of a young poor girl called Madelon who at the time of Jesus' birth wanted so much to give a gift to Jesus but had nothing to give. She despaired as she saw the lavish gifts others bestowed upon Jesus. An angel came to her , touched the snow and helped her to find a white rose buried in the snow. She joyfully gave her gift to the Christ Child.

The holly represents the crown of thorns the Lord Jesus wore at His death and the red berries symbolize the blood he shed at His Death

The red vine is symbolic of fruitfulness that comes from believing His birth and Death and acting upon all that they mean.

Below are the instructions on how to make this fabulous meaningful garland. Click on the images or product names for more details or to purchase these products.

Bayberry Christmas Candle Centerpieces

Bayberry Christmas Candle Centerpieces

Real bayberry wax comes from a shrub or tree also known as myrtle, waxberry or candleberry. The berries when boiled in water produce myrtle wax. It is quite a lengthy process. The mrytle wax is used in making bayberry candles, which are memorably fragrant, more brittle than beeswax candles and are almost smokeless. It takes lots of berries to make the wax - about 4 pounds of berries for 1 pound of wax.

Bayberry candles were used in American Colonial times when tallow (which was used to make candles) was too expensive and hard to get. It was also a very messy and at times pungent job.

Today some people use them because of the history and tradition. Some believe they bring good luck when burnt on Christmas eve all the way to the bottom of the candle. Others use them because they love the delightful, crisp, natural scent of the bayberry. Bayberry candles are sometimes hard to find and they are more expensive than other candles. Most "bayberry candles" on the market are other waxes with artificial bayberry fragrance added. Bayberry wax has a greenish color and its own natural scent. There is nothing like real bayberry candle if you can get them. You will want to make it a family tradition once you try these candles.

Here are a few bayberry candle centerpieces melding traditional and contemporary themes. They are easy for you to make and look really professional. Click on the product names or images below for more details or to purchase these items.
