Using candlelit glow adds warmth and cozy ambiance to Christmas decor. Combine taper and pillar candles in groups with reflective ornaments in jewel tones like ruby and emerald. Use candlelight to highlight textured ribbons, burnished brass, and fresh greenery, enhancing their depth. Be mindful of safety and place candles away from flammable items. This glow creates inviting spaces that feel intimate and photograph beautifully, perfectly matching 2025’s trend toward tactile warmth and emotional connection.
