You must never underestimate the power of candlelight. They might appear old-fashioned, but they are ideal for creating a romantic, cosy atmosphere. With low lighting scattered throughout the room, it can easily help to set the mood and give a pretty glow to the entire place. Also, you can get candles in various sizes, shapes and heights to add visual interest to the decor. Matching candles in candlesticks, in votive holders and lanterns can add texture and depth.
