Candles: Votive Candle Holders
June 22, 2008 1:47 pm Candles, Home & GardenVotive candle holders are usually small glass holders, designed specifically for votive candles. Votive candles are small trial-sized candles that are just a little bit larger than a shot glass. Votives are excellent scented candles for those who would like a different scent in each room. Although votives are small, their scent can fill an entire room.
Styles of Votive Holders
There are several different styles of votive holders available. Many votive candle holders are made of glass that has been decoratively frosted, etched or painted. Some votive holders are made more simply, with no decorations added. Many votive holders have a more funky look to them, and are wrapped in brightly colored and textured fabrics.
Votive candle holders often come in sets of six or twelve, for those who like the look of several votives lit at once. You can also purchase them separately, to be given (along with votive candles) as party favors for weddings, baby showers and engagement parties. It is important to use votive holders with votive candles. Votives are very particular in shape and no other candle holder will work as safely.
You can purchase votive candle holders in most candle supply shops and home decor shops. Votive holders can also be purchased on the Internet. Many handmade candle companies also sell a variety of candle holders to be used with their candles. You can purchase a set of six different scented votive candles online, as well as a votive holder, and have them all shipped directly to your home.
