Choosing the Right Size

One of the first things to consider when choosing a pumpkin candle is size. Crate and Barrel offers candles in a variety of sizes, from small, single-wick tapers to large, multi-wick pillars. The size you choose will depend on your personal preference and the size of the space you're trying to fill with fragrance. Keep in mind that larger candles will burn for longer and provide more fragrance, but they may also be more expensive.
