# Wooden Crackling Candles The Dayna Decker Chandles are Homey and Quaint By Robyn Currie | Published 2009-11-10 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dayna-decker-chandles References: [notcot.org](http://www.notcot.org/post/26187/) & [notcot](http://www.notcot.com/archives/2009/11/dayna_decker_ch.php) Everything is getting the luxury treatment these days: dogs, trees and now even candles. Sorry, I mean chandles, as in the Dayna Decker Chandles. Because when your candles are this cool, they are called chandles. Using a patented manufacturing process that allows the wick to be made out of wood rather than cotton, the Dayna Decker Chandles burn cleaner. They have a lovely teardrop-shaped flame, but the best part is the homey crackling sound made by the burning wick. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.5/10 - Popularity: 7% | Activity: 90% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Luxury Candles:** There is a trend towards luxury candles that offer unique features and experiences. - **Alternative Wick Materials:** There is a trend towards exploring alternative materials for candle wicks, such as wood, for a cleaner burn. - **Enhanced Candle Experience:** There is a trend towards creating candles that provide added sensory experiences, such as a crackling sound while burning. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Home Decor:** The home decor industry can tap into the trend towards luxury candles to offer unique and stylish options for consumers. - **Sustainable Materials:** The sustainable materials industry can explore the use of alternative materials for candle wicks to reduce environmental impact. - **Wellness and Therapy:** The wellness and therapy industry can incorporate candles that provide enhanced sensory experiences, like crackling sounds, to promote relaxation and stress relief. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Smokey Scented Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burning-woods.md) - [Cheeky Candle Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/between-the-sheets.md) - [Luxuriously Scented Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxuriously-scented-candle.md) - [Romance-Inspired Candle Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/romanceinspired-candle.md) - [Playful Holiday Candle Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holiday-candle-collection.md) - [Chic All-Black Luxury Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allblack-luxury-candles.md) - [Animal Patterned Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cow-print-candle.md) - [Beeswax Sculptural Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/greentree.md) - [Candle Advent Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candle-advent-calendar.md)
