How to create a hygge atmosphere with candles?

The Danes use more candles per capita than any other country in the world. The hygge phenomenon is inextricably linked with candles. Candles allow you to instantly introduce a hygge atmosphere in your home. For the people of Denmark, candles are always a welcome gift, because from October to March there are very "dark" months there: the days are short and the nights are long. Candles provide us with warm, soft, natural light that makes us feel better, replacing the harsh artificial light often used in offices and homes. Danes often burn many candles at once to ensure the perfect light intensity. If you're using scented candles, you can choose multi-wick candles and add some traditional candles or natural tea lights to create a soothing, hygge-friendly atmosphere in the evening.

How to create a hygge atmosphere at home?

It is not without reason that people talk about autumn and winter depression. Periodic low mood is basically caused by limiting the amount of sunlight during the day. In Denmark, candles are used to create a cozy and pleasant atmosphere - this way we warm up the winter. Wood burning in the fireplace and lots of candles are the basis of hygge. If you don't have a fireplace at home, try candles with a wooden wick that sizzle like wood in a fireplace! Such candles are three in one - soothing candle light, beautiful scent and the warmth of a home. We usually add something warm to drink, such as hot chocolate, delicious coffee or mulled wine... the family gathers in the candlelight and spends time together. Together.

Cozy interior thanks to hygge candles

Home is not only a place where we sleep, but also a cozy haven to which we love to return. The softness of the blanket, the delicacy of the bedding, the beautiful smell of baking cake... delicious food, a cozy living room with a comfortable sofa and the glow of a candle... candles have magic, the charm of closeness and joy. Many people associate candles with Christmas, with this special time when we can all be together... But why limit your access to pleasure only during the holidays? Why not create a hygge atmosphere all year round? Spring and summer evenings can also be very pleasant thanks to scented candles. Even if we spend the evening in the garden or on the balcony, a few candles will provide us with softness and coziness combined with a moment of respite after a long day.

The Danes have a unique approach to candles. They use them all year round. Celebrating everyday life, they light a candle every evening at dinner. Regardless of the season. You won't find a house without candles in Denmark. Home and hygge are candles. Lots of candles. We can freely choose candles depending on our mood and the season - different candles will work well in spring, others in summer, and others in autumn. Of course, let's always choose candles that suit us best, not necessarily in line with current trends.

What is important in hygge?

Let's remember an important aspect of hygge - being together. It is said that hygge comes from spending evenings together, close to warm each other by the light. Today, candles and hygge help us stay close, spend time together playing games, talking, reading books... Take out the pillows, blankets, light candles, prepare something delicious... enjoy the moment... all year round!

Very happy with the service from Candle World. They have a much bigger selection of Bolsius candles than I could find anywhere else. I would definitely order from again.
