Well, the other few shabbos candlestick threads got me to thinking!!
I'm expecting my first and my family has a minhag to light for each child. If the candlestick set I got as a kallah are the crystal type with the glass beads on the inside (the more modern style), what's a nice one/shape/style that will match it? I can't seem to find an exact replica of it for the baby.

I have two children BH. I use the two silver candlesticks I got when I got married and two basic tea light holders. I recently bought these -
Le Sens Amazing Home Classic Cube Crystal Candle Holder Set of 4 - Solid Square Clear Glass Table Centerpiece - Elegant Votive Tealight Candlestick for Ceremony Wedding & Home Decoration https://www.amazon.com/dp/B075.....DCTHW
It’s always good to have extra for guests anyway.
I’m iyh expecting my third and wondering if I should buy a candelabra with 5 branches, but I also hold onto the hope of possibly having one more child, even though I am not so young. So I’ll probably wait a few more years and see.
Bshaa Tova!

You can still light with oil in your regular candlesticks. I use the tea lights just for the “kids’ candles”.

I would imagine any glass candlesticks would be a good cheaper match.
I have a metal one for my daughter, who lights it herself now as she's almost 3, and we had her name engraved at the base. It was a nice idea, but hard to see. Oh well.

I have silver candlesticks and for my kids I got cheap Crystal ones from amazing saving. Nothing major but fits, the tall wax candles-with candle holder. Fits glass, for either smaller wax candle or oil. Fits tealights too.
