Fall Decor: Decorating with Candles

As we head into fall (hard to believe, isn't it?), now is a good time to begin thinking about transitioning our homes into autumn decor.  Today's post is inspired by a few photos I've found for decorating your interior with candles.  Enjoy!

Floater candles with twigs
For an easy and elegant display, bring in some twigs, add colored water (optional) and add floater candles. 
Autumn leaf votive holder
Use two glass candle holders or cups, one slightly smaller than the other. Line the larger glass with leaves, insert the smaller glass, pressing the leaves between the two glasses.
Candles and Corks
For the wine lover, line a larger glass or vase with corks, and insert a smaller glass or votive holder to illuminate your exquisite taste. 
Harvest Nuts
Line the bottom of various hurricane vases with walnuts, pecans, chestnuts, or your favorites, place a pillar candle in the center, and cluster together.
Rustic Candlelight
Place antique graters or tins on a wood platter with dried flowers or potpourri and add a simple votive or two for a rustic, country touch.

Enjoy!
