24 Candles Advent Calendar
December is a month of magic, warmth, and joyful anticipation. Definitely one of our favorite times of year, which is why we're so excited to bring you the experience of 24 scented candles to enjoy from December 1st all the way through Christmas.
Our 24 Candle Advent Calendar for adults and teens is designed to enhance your holiday experience, not just with 24 delightful scents in long-lasting 3oz tins, but also with versatile styling options...
Each day, you'll open a charming cotton drawstring bag to reveal a hand-poured, scented soy candle in a holiday or everyday fragrance.
Designed to add a cozy warmth to each day, these countdown advent gift bags offer not only a new scented soy candle but also a fun decorating opportunity.
We love all the different ways these cute bags can be arranged and shown off as you open them one-by-one throughout the month, and today we thought we'd share a few of those ideas with you.
Here are Five Ideas to Beautifully Display your Candle Advent Calendar from Scented Designs throughout the month, making them a part of your holiday decor as you unwrap each one!
1. Hang them on Your Christmas Tree
Bring your Advent Calendar to life by hanging each bag directly on your Christmas tree! With 24 cotton and red/green gingham bags, you’ll have a wonderful mix of decor alongside your ornaments.
Hang each cotton bag with its adorable numbered pin facing out, adding a rustic, handcrafted charm to your tree (and so you can easily find that day's bag!)
How to Do It:
- Choose sturdy branches to support the weight of the bags.
- Combine with ornaments and lights for a cohesive tree design.
- Space the bags evenly to maintain a balanced look. If you're worried about blank spaces after you open a bag, you can always hang it back up after you've taken the candle out to enjoy!
2. Create a Festive Wall Display
Maximize your wall space by arranging the Advent Calendar bags on a decorative wall stick, pole, jewelry hanger, small pegboard (anywhere that may already have hooks you can creatively reinvent).
This setup makes it easy to reach and enjoy each candle while adding a stylish touch to any room. Whether in your living room, hallway, or bedroom, a wall-mounted display keeps your countdown visible and accessible all month long.
How to Do It:
- Select a prominent wall area that complements your home decor.
- Use hooks or a decorative rod to hang the bags securely. We used a stick hung between two nails to achieve the look of our hanging calendar!
- Incorporate fairy lights or garlands around the display for added charm.
3. Intermingle with Garland on the Mantel
Enhance your mantelpiece by weaving the advent calendar bags into garlands. This arrangement creates a harmonious blend of textures and colors, perfect for showcasing your holiday décor.
Secure the bags to the garland, letting them dangle slightly over the edge of the mantel, or simply place the bag on the mantel amongst the greenery.
Each day, as you open the newest gift bag, you can add a new candle to your mantel, infusing your space with delightful scents and festive ambiance.
How to Do It:
- Drape garlands around the mantel and tuck the advent bags in between.
- Vary the placement to create a dynamic and visually appealing display.
- Add seasonal decorations like pinecones, berries, and ribbons for a complete look.
4. Elevate Your Kitchen Counter with a Decorative Bowl or Tiered Tray
The kitchen is often the heart of the home during the holidays, so why not add a touch of advent magic here?
Fill a decorative bowl or decorate a tiered tray for a charming way to display your advent calendar bags, especially if you want a festive centerpiece that’s both decorative and functional. In particular, tiered trays are trendy, compact, and perfect for showcasing the 24 cotton bags without taking up too much space.
Plus, you'll love the eye-catching display that’s close at hand during holiday baking and gatherings.
How to Do It:
- Display them in a bowl or on a festive holiday cookie plate or tray as a decorative countdown piece.
- Layer the days of the Advent Calendar by tier (e.g. 1-6 on the top tier, 7-12 on the middle tier, 13-24 on the bottom tier)
- For added effect, sprinkle holiday spices (like cinnamon sticks and star anise) around the bags for a seasonal aroma.
5. Personalize Your Dining Table
Turn your dining table into a festive centerpiece by placing the advent bags around it. Whether arranged along the table runner or nestled among holiday decorations, this setup adds a touch of elegance and anticipation to your meal gatherings.
Each new candle opening becomes a delightful part of your dining experience, perfect for family and friends.
How to Do It:
- Arrange candle bags along the length of a festive table runner.
- Fill a centerpiece bowl with the candle bags for a fun place to pull each new day's gift from.
- Combine with candles, greenery, and seasonal accents for a stunning display.
Bonus Tip: Create a Cozy Reading Nook
Set up a cozy corner in your home where you can relax and enjoy your daily candle. Hang the advent bags from a nearby shelf, window frame, or a decorative mobile. This personal space becomes a sanctuary for reflection and relaxation, enhanced by the soothing scents of your candles.
How to Do It:
- Choose a comfortable chair or a window seat.
- Hang the bags within easy reach for daily enjoyment.
- Add soft lighting, cozy blankets, and your favorite books to complete the nook.
Our Candle Advent Calendar is more than just a countdown to Christmas; it's an opportunity to infuse your home with beauty, warmth, and delightful fragrances every day of December.
