Tea light candles are a fun, practical, and beautiful way to add soft lighting to any space. However, it is important that you remember to use your tea light candle responsibly. Using a tea light holder provides an extra barrier that helps to protect the surface the candle is sitting on. In addition, it is important to remember to never leave a candle of any kind unattended. Tea light candles and holders are a great decorative choice for adult bedrooms and parties, but be sure to avoid leaving any lit candle within reach of children. If there is a lit candle in the room, be sure to supervise you children, and to blow out the candle before you leave the area.
