Trend Alert: Tall Skinny Candles

by Published: March 3, 2025

Currently burning bright: long, slender candles in small holders that could double as incense burners.

Think of them as extra-long birthday candles (and never leave them lit when you’re not in the room).

Here, 8 favorite sources for skinny candles plus candleholders sized to fit.
