Tired of votive candles? Shades of Light has a new take on intimate lighting with candles shaped like lamp shades. Lightly scented with vanilla, the paraffin shades burn through the center without losing their shape. The candles come in two sizes, and when paired with the company's array of decorative metal and resin stands, the pieces can range in height from 8.75 inches to 21.75 inches. Prices for a candle and stand combination start at $18. —Tiffany Sumner
