If you want to create a beautiful display of candles, you may not always need tall holders to elevate them. Instead, you can use plates and mirrors as bases for your candles, which have several benefits. First, they protect your table surfaces from getting burned or stained by the heat and wax of the candles. Second, they allow you to arrange more accents, such as flowers, ribbons, or beads, around the candles to make them more attractive. Third, they amplify the effect of the candle light by reflecting it from the mirrors, which makes your centerpieces look brighter and fuller than they actually are.
