The favorite time of the year for candle lovers has arrived.  What makes it so special?  There is something magical when the scents of the “harvest” season are lit.  Childhood memories are brought back with the amazing aroma of apples, cinnamon, pumpkin, oatmeal cookies and spices placed throughout your home or office.  It is a comforting feeling that doesn’t allow anxiety, stress or pressure to enter the equation, at least for a little while!
In addition to the scents, the colors of the harvest season are sophisticated yet neutral enough to decorate each room in your home year-round.  What is better than mixing and matching the shades of cider, autumn leaves, tan, sage, and eggplant?  ROOT Candles come in 14 colors so the combination options are unlimited!

For dramatic impact, group pillars in varying heights in different but complementary colors.  Start with a round or rectangular candle plate/tray, add a 3”x3”, 3”x6” and a 3”x9” in three colors.  For larger bases, use the oversize 4”x4” or 4”x6” pillars.  You can also add height with Tuscan-inspired pillar holders.  Place a beaded candle ring or garland around the candles to finish this classic decor look. Finish the statement with tapers in five-inch, nine-inch or 12-inch heights around the room.  It is best to arrange the tapers in sets of three in varying heights, as well.  Place scented tea lights in matching colors in amber, fall crackle glass or other holders throughout the room(s).

Light the jar candles, the pillars and tapers, and the harvest season will be in full illumination.
