It is like a whole new existence once your room is finely curated to suit your aesthetics and inner world.
For many, it's the one space they can make their own and indulge in the colours, textures and products that inspire.
A simple way to infuse this notion into a space is through decorative candles.
While it's easy to visit a department store or chain and pick up one of their products, many independent Australian decorative candle brands will work harder to foster an interesting and cozy environment.
These companies are mostly made in Australia, handcrafted and designed independently, which offers a more personal and considered result.
We all want to support local businesses and fill our rooms with affordable art, which is precisely what these candle makers are doing.
Their unique creations aren't just authentic, but they're also satisfying to enjoy because of all the love it took to craft them.
You deserve to make a nook for yourself that represents your inside flavour with candles illuminating your senses as you read Pride and Prejudiceand drink ginger infused with blossom honey tea.
However, if you're anything like Girlfriend, you're not inclined to set such a decadent art piece on fire. Instead, perhaps buy some basic scented candles for their fragrance while enjoying your delicate sculptures.
Here are the most intriguing independent decorative candle makers in Australia to live out your hot room fantasy.
