Elevate Your Home With KOO Candles

Always wanted to know how to style candles in your home but never tried? As an often-overlooked aspect of an interior space, candles have the power to craft an immediate ambiance and a charming character within your home. And while it may feel a little daunting at first if you've never styled candles before, there's a few simple tricks and tips to ensure your candle arrangement never feels out of place.

When thinking where to put candles in your home, it's important to remember what the space is trying to articulate - are you looking for a cosy living room, a relaxing bathroom space or perhaps an alluring and romantic bedroom? No matter the intention, KOO candles are a simple and timeless way to style and elevate any space.

It Just Makes Scents - Create an Aromatic and Inviting Space For Enjoyment

There's just something quite dreamy about the aroma of candles wafting through a home - it's romantic, it's sensual and it immediately enlivens any space. Lighting candles is not only a wonderful way to help de-stress from the working week, but it can also be a really easy way to quickly add visual interest to your home.

How to Style Candles in the Living Room For an Inviting Atmosphere

It's all about layering in the living room! The easiest way to use candles in this space is to create an eye-catching hierarchy with other candles or even with your current ornaments and vases. Knowing how to arrange candles on a coffee table is skill in and of itself. You want to make sure that you don't obstruct your view while on the couch, while also providing enough height that will draw the eye forward into the space. We recommend a selection of pillar candles in different heights as the centrepiece, coupled with a coffee table book and a small ceramic vase that aligns perfectly with your interior design. Place your candles on a coaster for a further layered look.

How to Style Candles in the Dining Room To Create a Lovely Focal Point

Similarly, when thinking how to arrange candles on a table, ensure that you utilise height as a way to provide character to a space. A dining room, if not styled properly, can feel outdated or turn into an unused area. Taper candles are the perfect addition for any dining room space, no matter what style. They provide a romantic and classic take that leans into the traditional nature of the space but feel modern when paired with a contemporary candlestick holder. Make sure you're taking care of your candles with the appropriate tools as well, such as a wax trimmer, candle snuffer and a wick dipper - this will guarantee your candles are safe to use, while also providing proper maintenance to improve their lifespan.

How to Style Candles To Create an Intimate & Cosy Bedroom

Always set an intention before styling any room. Knowing what you want to achieve - whether it's a quirky, bold space or a relaxing retreat - will help in deciding where to place candles in bedroom spaces. Soy scented candles are perfect for curating an intention

How to Style Candles in the Bathroom For a Fresh Relaxing Feel

The bathroom is very easy to style when deciding where to place candles in home and apartment settings. A scented candle on your vanity goes a long way in this space. It can help to create a tranquil environment to relax and unwind (while also being incredibly useful if your bathroom space is shared with the toilet). Jasmine, vanilla and rose scents pair perfectly here, while providing an immediately enticing glow. If you desire, you can also float tea lights safely in your bath alongside rose petals for something a little bit extra, reminiscent of a classic spa day in your very own home.

Styling Candles in the Garden, Balcony or Backyard

When thinking where to put candles in your home, don't forget that you can also add them to your outdoor spaces as well! A selection of layered traditional pillar candles looks great on an outdoor table or along your balcony to bring a soft glow for guests to enjoy well into the evening. Similarly, tealights safely scattered outside are the perfect addition to any backyard or garden, giving the illusion of fireflies or fairy lights amongst the garden bed.

Don't Be Afraid Of Colour When Decorating Your Home With Candles

While an overload of colour can easily date a space, small moments can provide intrigue and add a dynamic twist to an otherwise quiet palette. Hues such as pinks and yellows work really well for the summer and spring months, whereas nods to blue and green tones are ideal for a winter palette. However, the classic white candle is a staple for a reason - its enduring quality and universal appeal means that it will last for seasons.
