Candles Make Great
Halloween Decorations
With so many choices in colors, shapes and sizes, candles are a wonderfully inexpensive choice for Halloween Decorations. Whether you choose to light them for a ghastly glow,  or choose spooky candle holders that last for years, including Halloween candles as part of your Halloween decorations plan will make your budget last.
Scary Halloween Decorations
Face it, nothing is scarier than the dark – except the shadows created by the flicker of a candle’s flame. Now imagine a few of those flames scattered behind a black silhouette. Illuminations has both small and large versions of silhouette tealight candle holders, with scenes including black cats, tombstones, witches and bats.
Try a Spider Lantern Set with eight-legged horrors climbing up and down within the wax walls. Combine that with a flickering votive or tealight candle inside to create a light that’s almost too scary to look at!
The easiest way to prepare for a special Halloween event is to check out the  items in Illuminations Candles' Spine-Tingling Feast Set – things like a cauldron with optional mist diffuser (which is so much easier than tending to dry ice all evening!). Feathered owls and bats, and spooky tapered candle holders will send shivers up everyone’s spine.
Cute Halloween Decorations that Won’t Scare Your Little Goblins
If your little ones are too young for the truly scary stuff, candles can provide the spirit of the holiday without the spooks. Little ghosts love the idea of unlit floating candles, spinning them around the bowl and playing in the water, especially when the candles are shaped like pumpkins, candy corn, or smiling black cats!
A variety of smiling Jack O’Lanterns, both short and tall, bring joy to kids of all ages. You can even place a tiny tealight inside, to make their grins glow, to make Halloween night extra special.
For real fun, try the adorable color changing ghost candles. This pair of candles has tiny LED lights placed inside, which start to glow with gentle reds, blues, purples and more when the candle is lit, and shuts off automatically when the flame is extinguished. This same technology is available in a group of three tombstones too.
Subtle Halloween Decorations
Beautiful terracotta pumpkins add a hint of the season to any room. With a beautiful votive candle inside, these offer an extra special touch that fits in anywhere. For a subtle bit of whimsy, place a smiling Jack O’Lantern figurine inside a large clear glass cylinder, fill the cylinder with water, with a black or orange floating candle on top. For extra fun, toss in a few glass pumpkins (scatter) around the bottom of the cylinder.
Don’t forget to fill your home with the inviting fragrance of a pumpkin pie candle. Illuminations offers them as both tall and short pillars, tealights and votives. Just thinking about it makes me hungry!
