10 Cozy Scented Candles For Your Modern Fall Home Decor This Season

soy fall

Whenever there is a hint of fall in the air, even if it's still hot outside, I start pulling out all of my fall home decor. It could be one brown leaf on the ground, a cool day, or the Pumpkin Spice Lattes that Starbucks starts serving. Whatever it may be, my fall candles are the first thing to burn for the season. Not only do the scents give me all of the fall vibes, but I look for modern candles to fit the aesthetic of my home as we transition to fall. Fall home decor can be lacking in the aesthetics that I look for, so I use modern fall candles AS part of how I decorate my home for fall.

I want my fall home decor to fit the modern aesthetic of my home. Modern fall candles are the best way to do that.

Once I started investing my time and money into high-quality fall candles, I started taking better care of my candles with a candle kit. Every year when I pull out my fall decor, I give my candles a little care by trimming the wicks and wiping out the insides to remove soot if needed before burning them for the season. I also bought a new match set with a glass jar for decorative storage. This is another great way to elevate your fall home decor without changing the overall aesthetic of your home! These keep your candles looking their best to be the center of attention for your fall home decor.

Natural Wax Candles vs Unnatural

I do my best to find candles with a coconut soy blend (not fully natural) or candles that guarantee to be hand-poured candles (fully natural). The reason being is that a lot of candles are made with paraffin wax, which releases carcinogens (known cancer-causing agents) such as toluene and benzene. The toxins created from paraffin wax have been most commonly compared to those found in diesel fumes. I try not to inhale gasoline and diesel fumes on a regular basis, so I don’t want them in my everyday candles.

Candles made with natural soy wax or beeswax are created purely from natural wax resources without the added chemicals. It’s also important to read the details for the type of wick being used. I look for candles that include cotton, wood, or hemp wicks as often as I can as they are natural resources.
