Need to buy candles for Advent but want something other than traditional taper candles? We offer pillar candles in slender 2 inch diameter, from heights of 3" up to 9" in all advent colors. Shown, are Royal Blue, Purple & Pastel Pink. Navy Blue & White are also sometimes used and you can find those colors on our "order here" page as well.
Use our advent pillar candles on a large, round platter and surround with a base of traditional greenery for your ceremony.

Though we offer 49 colors and many sizes, we thought we would dedicate a page this year to those who look to us for advent candles each year. Yes, we do have all the colors you need! From Pink, Purple, Royal and Navy Blue to White - Order just what you want, according to your wishes. Some choose to utilize votive candles for Advent. All votives are offered in the very same colors as our pillars.
As we do offer varying shades of pinks and blues, you may want to experiment with your advent setting online before you make your final selection. Click here to view our interactive colorscape page where you can play around a bit with choices.

The majestic look of a slender 2x9 round candle lends a sophisticated touch to any centerpiece or candle grouping. For your safety and optimum enjoyment, please note that the taller, more slender candles tend to topple easily when bumped. Please make sure your arrangement is secured safely. One idea is to use a large dish that can be lined with sand, and then topped by holiday greenery and other traditional decoration.

There are many websites that explain Advent's meaning. Depending upon the religion, the number of candles to use, their colors (and their meanings) seem to differ. Here are a couple of sites that we found most helpful in our own quest to understand Advent. We like this one for its simplicity in getting the whole family involved in the project of creating an advent wreath: Catholic Online - Advent and Wikipedia - Advent for its diverse explanation of its history and meaning.

Sizes Available: 2x3, 2x4, 2x6, 2x9, 3x3, 3x6, 3x9, 4x4, 4x6, 6X5.5
