Another contributor to the crazy color challenge. I enjoy the soft light of candles and light them often, but do not want traces of wax in the apartment. So I also use candlesticks to protect my furniture from hot wax. A high-quality candle holder must have two characteristics in particular: stability and non-combustibility. They can be made of different materials and shapes, but these two requirements must be met, otherwise the results can be very dangerous. Although candle lighting conjures up romance and creates a special atmosphere, it should never be forgotten that this is an open fire, which must be properly guarded, otherwise an accident with serious consequences may occur – so the candles must be handled responsibly.

Those are really pretty. I like scented candles, and do burn them inside.
Candles are a great addition to any room and even outdoors
I totally agree. Especially if it is then also our mood better.
I used to have candles and incense at my old place but my new roommates aren’t fans
This is not pleasant, but we must also respect the opinion of others
yep, sacrifices and compromise…
Yes they are open flames. I have them in my earthquake kit. (there is no natural gas service here so it is OK)
I had recently read that beeswax candles clean the air … paraffin candles do not I guess. (I just learned this and haven’t verified) In the glass studios we use bees wax for the tools and I love the smell.
I didn’t know that. Thank you so much for sharing this information.
Try candles that say “100% bees wax” and see if you like them. People claim that they help clean the air and have no pollutants in them. I believe this is true.
Here in the US the candles can say “pure beeswax” can be 51% with added paraffin wax. So we have to see “100% beeswax” to really know. Many countries don’t let companies get away with things that the US lets them get away with. There are many articles about this subject online.
Thank you very much for the detailed explanation. More and more beeswax products are being produced in our country. I’ll check the candles too.
I love candles and candlesticks but a small unit with not enough room for what we have is a disaster for any candle lit , so I don’t have candles.
I understand, Pamela. I don’t have these problems because my apartment is big.
You really love candles, dear Vidocka … candlesticks are wonderful
Yes, Lado. I love candles.
And you light them in the apartment, too dear Vida?
These are beautiful. I love the colors and design. I use candles every now and then, usually to remember Dustin and other loved ones.
Thank you, Carol. This is nice. I also light a candle for my loved ones every once in a while.
We always have many candles around to light in case the power goes out.
Candles can be used for various purposes
We only light candles at home for birthday cakes!!
That’s nice too. We light the candles on the cake.
We don’t use them as often as you do. But I have enough different candles.
I use them regularly ?
I haven’t used candles in a year or more I guess. I used to make candles, but not anymore.
Have you had any accident with candles that you no longer use?
