What Candle Ring Do I Need?

Candle Rings turn a simple candle into a candle centerpiece masterpiece and choosing the right one for your table centerpieces is easy.

Please be aware that the candle ring sizes given are approximate only.

The size given is the very INSIDE diameter of the candle ring when the ring is showing as symmetrical.

Sizes can be 1/2 inch larger than shown. This allows for the uneven sizing of some candles particularly hand made candles.

Candle rings are meant to sit on a flat surface when used around a candle holder...although some people use the smaller ones for Christmas tree ornaments and the larger ones as wreath on walls and doors. They are not meant to balance on the top of taper candleholders, candlesticks or pillar candleholders. For decorative purposes, you can secure them in position with floral wire, rubber bands or sticky tape, if you wish. If they are just a little big you can often squeeze the floral wire in the center together or use some of the strands or "leaves" to wrap around your holder.

N.B! Candle rings should not be used when the candle is lit unless the candle ring is outside a candle cylinder or holder that completely separates the candle flame from the flammable items in the candle ring.
