The Holiday Gift Guide
The Architectural Digest Holiday Gift Guide Is Here
This year’s best holiday gifts are all about the pleasures of home.
Our world is very much about making things beautiful, but when we say “design” we are not only referring to external aesthetics—one might argue design is also how we internalize all that surrounds us and how that makes us feel.
The best candles to give as gifts aren’t merely delightful-smelling; they can encourage the recipient to slow down, set an intention, maybe even relax and refocus–something we could all use a little (or a lot) of help with this year.
Aside from looking great, they should be somewhat heavy, so you know they won’t burn up in one sitting, and good enough quality that you aren’t concerned about the chemicals they send into the air. Pick the right one and it can convey quite a lot.
