Our 8 Favorite Rotating Candle Holders Add A Touch Of Magic To Any Home

On their own, candles can boost your mood, ease feelings of loneliness, and improve the feng shui in any room of your home. They can also set a nice cozy atmosphere and fill your home with both delicious and soothing scents. Not to mention, candles can add lovely warm lighting and ambiance to a room. When it comes to beautiful, multi-faceted home decor, it's tough to beat a candle. However, it does get even better when you combine a traditional candle with a gorgeous rotating candle holder.

Also called candle carousels, rotating candle holders come with a carousel that sits above the candle, and the heat from the flame causes the carousel to spin in circles like a turbine. When the carousel is accompanied by gorgeous hanging pieces of art like hummingbirds, fairies, and stars, this transforms your ordinary candle into an utterly-enchanting piece of art in your home. Whether you're looking for a seasonal rotating candle holder to set the mood for a certain holiday or something to add some everyday magic to your home, here are our favorite rotating candle holders.

When many of us think of magic, Harry Potter might be one of the first things that come to mind. While there are many different ways you can decorate your home like Harry Potter, this beautiful TheCharmedCastle's Wizard Candle Carousel on Etsy might take the cake. With delicate gold cutouts of owls and letters, this rotary candle perfectly portrays a quintessential moment from the first book. Plus, the way the letters and owls fly in circles above the candle looks just like the type of magic you'd see in Hogwarts Castle.

In addition to being powerful pollinators and an absolute delight to watch flitting around your garden, hummingbirds symbolize love, joy, and good luck. If you just can't get enough of these gorgeous tiny birds, consider bringing them inside your home — in the form of a rotating candle holder. This beautiful kingnero Hummingbird Rotary Candle Holder has four exquisite hummingbirds made from stainless steel that dangle down from its turbines and spin in a circle when the flame is lit. The candle holder itself is also equipped with an elegant hummingbird cutout design.

Although the stars and moon are firmly rooted in astrological science, it's hard not to feel something undeniably magical that happens while gazing upon them. One great way to bring that stargazing magic inside your home is with the Pluto Produkter Moon and Stars Rotating Candle Holder sold on Scandinavian North. On top of spinning around when the candle is lit, the stars and moons on this rotary candle holder will also be reflected onto your walls and ceiling while you're using it, amplifying the gorgeous celestial scene.

When decorating for Christmas, most people reach for the typical decorations like ornaments, lights, and wreaths. However, if you want to really upgrade your Christmas decor with something unique, consider adding this festive kingnero Spinning Candle Holder with Silver Christmas Socks to your decoration repertoire. Four stuffed metal stockings hang from the fan blades, and the candle holder itself depicts a lovely winter scene with reindeer pulling Santa's sleigh. All this rotating candle holder needs to get started is a lit tea light, and then you can watch the stocking spin.

Whether you're seeking out beachy home decor while stuck in the throes of a harsh winter or you like to maintain a fun beachy theme in your home all year long, this Pluto Produkter Beach Holiday Rotating Candle Holder sold from Scandinavian North can bring a fun sunny vacation vibe to your home. Show off the candle holder by adding it to your bar cart for a tropical cocktail night, or place it somewhere else in your home where it can help shake the winter blues.

Who says tea light candles get to have all the fun? This elegant Menolana Candle Holder at Walmart is unique in that it has four holders for taper candles. The use of taper candles in this holder rather than a classic candle in a jar or tea light gives it a fun new meets old look thanks to the combination of the modern hanging gold feathers and the rustic taper candles. Just make sure you only use it with taper candles shorter than 2.75 inches tall.

Nothing quite spells out whimsy like fairies, and it doesn't get much more magical than a Spinning Fairy Candle Holder Tray from NatureMan. Unlike other rotating candle holders on this list, the base of this one is a tray rather than a container for tea lights or a ring that goes around a candle. This is great for anyone who already has a collection of candles that they love, as you can set the candle of your choosing (as long as it's not too tall) under the fairies to get the ethereal scene going.

This darling BubbleWitchCosmetics' Flying Ghosts Candle Carousel Topper on Etsy is the perfect piece of decor for anyone who adores taking Halloween decor to the next level or simply loves having a bit of a witchy vibe going on in their home. Once you light the candle underneath, the dainty ghosts will start spinning in a circle, creating the perfect spooky candle setup. As it's a candle topper rather than tray, this carousel will pair with candles that are 3.15 inches in diameter.
