Interesting Candle Trend Information from Illume Candles
Candles are a key piece in home decor today. As the home decor trends continue to move faster and follow a similar pace as apparel, candle presentation, color and formulation follow the same trends.
When shopping for candles, below are several trends to consider:
- Eco chic: The market has exploded with the all-natural trend. "Going Green" has hit all areas from cleaning products to blue jeans to all natural soy candles.
- Colors: Explosion of color. The fear of color has lifted. Bright pinks and oranges are very important accents for everyday entertaining. Blues are sweet and light with beautiful periwinkles and lavenders, while yellows brighten to sunlight yellow and yellow/green.
- Accents: Scale is key this season. Use a mix of extra large and mini accessories to decorate your home. Items like our oversized glass hurricanes and washed metals are popular additions to home's this spring.
