Product Description

There is no easier, more inexpensive, more stylish, and dramatic way to quickly change the look and mood of one's living space than with candlelight. Part wish book, part practical interior design guide, this resplendently photographed volume presents dozens of innovative ideas for using candles to spruce up any home.

Lush full-color photographs show candles in indoor and outdoor decor--in table settings and floral arrangements, on patios and in backyards. Candle sales in America topped $3 billion last year, and these fabulous decorating suggestions--from votives and tea lights around the tub to candle-filled lanterns illumining garden walkways--makes it easy to see why. Arranged by season, this lovely book will be an inspiration, and treasured gift, for any candle lover.

Customer Reviews

A Caveat for buyers
This is my first Amazon book review, but I felt compelled to write it. This book is beautiful, gorgeous even. I am still glad to have purchased the book...BUT for anyone who wishes to replicate the ideas in the book in your home, I found the book lacking in information on the sources of products. So if you love the accessories and would like to purchase them, you have nowhere to turn to. A listing ala Martha Stewart resources would have made me give this book 5 stars. But I am frustrated that I can't find out where to get some of the items used in the book!

First Ever!! Luxurious, how to, Candle Book.....For EVERYONE
I should first start off with telling you. "I have never bought a book on AMAZON.COM, until now"!
Finally, a book that you really would put on your coffee table, and have friends pick up and chat about! I learned so much from this book! Just how a little candle put anywhere can make a HUGE difference. It explains all kind of ways to accent your home....and have people talking about it for days! Whoever would have thought. To use candles the way this book has explained and shown, and it be so simple and stunning!! I applaude the author, as well as the photographer. For creating a book, that will help so many people, such as myself. Learn how to make your home fill warm, inviteing, and beautiful! Thanks again... For this great addition to my home!

Great for Professionals and Novice Decorators Alike
JT Fry has taken the every-day items we have around our homes and transformed them into warm conversation pieces. I find that his suggestions jog my own creativity so that my mind is soon a'buzzin with decorating ideas. This "must-have" publication also makes a perfect gift because no matter what your friends' taste, they can relate to its contents.
