Candles, candles, candles! Not only are they everyone’s favorite, but they are the best gift to receive. With so many scents and designs, the options are never ending. However, some brands like to get pricy and not everyone can afford to buy an $100 candle. That is why I have decided to write this post, to give you affordable candle options that smell expensive and have stylish designs.
Pillar candles

Pillar candles are not only great for décor, but can burn for as long as fifty to sixty hours! The typical pillar candle holder is the lantern looking one.

Scented candles

You’re probably wondering why I made this its own section considering that most candles are scented. Well, that is in fact not true. Some candles are made for décor and do not have a scent.

Wood wick candles

Although self-explanatory, a wood wick candle is simply a candle with a wood wick. These are unique because they mimic the sound of a crackling fire as it burns.

Votive candles/Tea light candles

People tend to confuse tea light candles and votive candles as they are quite similar to each other. The key difference between the two is simply the height, the votive candle being about two to three inches taller than the tea light candle. Votive and tea light candles are small short candles that are very visually appealing.
