No matter what time of year it is, everyone needs to be making smart choices about decorations in the home so that you can safely prevent candle fire accidents from happening!

So What Can You Do If You Love Decorating Your Home With Candles?

We have the solution for you- just use flameless candles! There are so many different styles of flameless candles available now, that there is no reason to risk being one of the 10,000 homes that have a fire start from a candle annually. And yes you did read that correctly, a whopping 10,000 homes are fire affected by candles every year, with the decoration fires contributing to this number! Now I know I would rather you not be one of those people, and to help you I have taken the time to personally test numerous LED candles so that you only buy the best.

One off use or everyday, I have you covered with my range of top quality LED flickering tea light and wax taper candles!

Recurring use:

In this instance I would highly recommend choosing rechargeable tea light candles, you can use them every day with only a small ongoing cost (the small amount of electricity you’d use to charge them for 8 hours). Being the size of a tea light/votive, means that you can put them anywhere and in anything. And having 12 means that you can have them in multiple spots, both inside and outside* your home. Once you start using them you will really come to enjoy their convenience, safety and how clean they are.

* Please be aware that they are not water proof so don’t leave them outside in the rain.

Candelabras or Windowsill Candles:

What is your solution for your candelabras or if you want to have taper candles on your windowsill? Wax LED taper candles are the perfect, stylish and safe option to replace traditional taper candles. No more dealing with melted wax all over your table or hutch, and definitely no more worrying about setting your curtains on fire! Place them anywhere and again in anything. Long lasting and extremely elegant, LED wax taper candles are the perfect solution for this particular need.

If you still want to decorate with real candles:

Please take into consideration the following if you still want to decorate with real candles:

• Make sure that you place the candle far enough away from anything that could catch fire, such as curtains, decorations, plants, furniture etc…
• Don’t ever leave lit candles unattended.
• If you are feeling sleepy and have a candle lit- make the effort to blow it out before you fall asleep with it burning.
• Be mindful of where you place your candles, so that children or pets can’t knock it over.
• Never leave your house without blowing out your candles.
• Make sure that you place your candle on a tray that is wider than the candle to help prevent accidental fires from happening as the candle burns down.
