Nontraditional Advent Candles

December 18, 2012 by Heidi Gustad

Advent is a special time of year, marked by the anticipation of the coming of Christmas. For many families, the lighting of the advent wreath is a beloved tradition that adds to the excitement of the season. The advent wreath is typically made up of four candles, each representing a week of the season leading up to Christmas. However, not everyone has access to an advent wreath or may prefer a different approach to celebrating the season.

Kristin from Simply Klassic came up with a unique and rustic twist on the traditional advent wreath by creating a candle setup without the use of a wreath. The setup features four pillar candles arranged on a bed of greenery and pinecones. The simplicity of the setup is what makes it so charming, and the use of natural materials adds to the cozy and rustic feel.

What’s great about this setup is that it’s versatile and can be tailored to fit any home decor style. You can use candles of different sizes, colors, and scents to suit your personal taste. The greenery and pinecones can be swapped out for other seasonal decorations like holly, berries, or even ornaments.

If you’re looking for a new and unique way to celebrate the season, this advent candle setup is a great place to start. It’s easy to put together, and the materials can be found at your local craft store or even in your backyard. Simply light a new candle each week leading up to Christmas, and enjoy the warmth and coziness it brings to your home.
