Scented Tea Light Candles
The most petite candle formation available, the tea light candle is a small, cylindrical candle that usually measure approximately 1” in diameter and 1-1/2” in height. You’ll usually find them poured into a small metal holder of about the same size, although some are also available in plastic or clear bases. Tea light candles are generally not intended to be used alone, but are designed for use inside another container or on top of a fire-resistant surface. Many candelabras, wall sconces, and decorative candleholders are specially designed to accommodate tealight candles.
You can usually choose from a variety of scented tea light candles to add splashes of vivid color and fragrance to your home. They are usually offered in bulk purchase to ensure that you always have plenty on hand. Due to their small stature and pleasing affordability, tealight candles are an ideal way to enhance your home décor. During the holidays, create a striking table centerpiece by placing several red and green tea candles on a tray adorned with sprigs of holly and peppermint. For a fresh spring adornment or romantic wedding centerpiece, float a few pastel-hued tea light candles in a glass bowl filled with water and rose petals. And who says they have to be used alone? Pair your tea light candles with larger pillars or taper candles to create an interesting visual accent.
Scented tealight candles are the perfect choice for those who enjoy candle scents, but are unwilling to commit to one particular aroma in a larger size. Due to their small stature, tea light scented candles let you enjoy one variety for a short time before moving on to the next. Or, burn multiple aromas at once to create a customized bouquet of fragrances.
