Frequently Asked Questions on Candle Accessories + Holders

What are candle accessories?

Candle accessories are the tools and decorative pieces that help you display, protect, and enjoy your candles safely. This includes candle holders, trays, wick trimmers, snuffers, and matches designed to complement your favorite tapers, pillars, and votives. Beyond function, many accessories–like decorative trays and holders–also add a finishing touch to your decor, transforming a simple candle into a styled centerpiece.

How do I use candle accessories?

Candle accessories are used to enhance both the safety and presentation of your candles. Start with a holder suited to your candle's shape and size, then add finishing touches like a wick trimmer or snuffer to maintain a clean, even burn. Using the right accessories not only keeps your space tidy–it helps your candles burn more evenly and last longer.

How do I style candle holders?

Style candle holders by grouping varying heights and finishes together to create depth and visual interest. Pairing a few pillar holders of different sizes down the center of a table, or clustering votives on a tray, brings an inviting glow to any space.

A few styling ideas to try: Mix metallic and matte finishes for contrast, layer taper holders of different heights for a dynamic tablescape, and use trays to unify a cluster of smaller holders into one cohesive display

What are the different types of candle holders?

Candle holders come in several types, each suited to a specific candle style. Common options include taper holders, pillar holders, votive holders, hurricane lanterns, and tea light holders. Taper holders are slim, elegant bases designed for tall, thin candles. Pillar holders are sturdier stands built for thicker, freestanding candles. Votive holders are small glass or metal cups that contain short, wide candles. Hurricane lanterns are glass-enclosed holders that shield the flame, ideal for outdoor setting. Tea light holders are compact holders for small, quick-burning candles, often used decoratively in groupings.

Choosing the right type comes down to the candle you're using and the ambiance you want to create, from an intimate glow to a bold, statement-making display.
