<< Tips to use candles to enhance the warmth & romance in your home
In my earlier post, I talked about how Candles can be used to induce warmth and romance within your own home, and how little imagination can turn around the entire ambience to something serene. Combine candles in varying shapes and sizes to create a display that is attractive even when unlit. You could also place a candle in a clay pottery bowl and fill the bowl with stones or pot pourri.
Let’s look a little ahead and talk about the precautions you must take in order to ensure no unforeseen incident / fire happens in your home. You must ensure safety while having lit candles, more so if children are around. Here are a few tips to prevent fires:
- Keep candles out of bedrooms
- Place candles away from any inflammable fabric or material, especially curtains
- Ensure there are attentive adults around the lit candles - very important if there are children in your home
- Always places candles on a stable surface
- When using candle-holders, ensure they are non-combustible
- Try not to use candles that have inflammable materials embedded in them - such candles may look flashy at first, but believe me they are the most dangerous to your safety
- Place candles (both, lit & unlit) out of reach of children and pets
- Always keep a fire extinguisher at home. You never know when it might come in handy!
