Since most will approach the display from the left, the candles are all turned slightly in that direction. The triangular shape of the bases looks good from the left
or straight on.

Slowing Shoppers
I began by placing my tables on the wall and "dry fit" the mirror on the table to be sure both were sized appropriately. The mirror was hung so that the middle of the reflective area was at eye level. Paco Underhill found that mirrors slow shoppers down. To the right, near a corner, I placed the trio of metal candleholders.

Tasteful Accents
A stack of books fills a void between the mirror frame and table top. The cookbook title reinforces the Francophile theme. To the left, a large topiary balances the height of the candlesticks.

Try Theses Angles
Ceramic tableware featuring a fleur-de-lis motif is placed near the topiary. A small bowl and a pyramid of candles are placed in front of the candlesticks. The tester will complete this triangle.

FYI
A framed sign provides information and pricing on coordinating pieces not shown in the display.

Finshing Touches
A couple of carboys or demijohns (used to store wine, water or brine olives) placed beneath the tables provide interest in an otherwise vacant space.
