Chucky Mama Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Does anyone use these? We bought some lovely tealight holders from our hols in Morocco and for safety I was wondering about using these fake tealights HERE but wonder how much light they actually give off.

Ness3103 Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 i've used them my boys wanted a terracotta dove tealight holder in their room at night, so these were the safest option. i think they're lovely but not very bright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottechicken Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 They sound like a great idea CM, tea lights aren't bright anyway so I'd give them a go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 My nan has hundreds Can get them in the £ shop too - some are better than others, but they're a good idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bramble Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I use them 'cos they look pretty, they don't give off much light, but then I dont think tea lights do either? Shop around, prices vary hugely! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 We got some from wrexham - either £1 land or 99p store. They are very realistic, quite a good looking flame, not brilliant light but convincing that they are fire! We had them in the caravan window, which caused quite a stir in the club - with them being so close to the calor gas storage! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paola Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I must learn to slow down when I read things I read the title as Battery Hen Operated Tea Lights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PurpleTree Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 I bought some from Ebay last year to use on my glass painting stall. Wanted my tea light holders to be lit up, but didn't anyone setting fire to themselves. They lasted all day and some are still going strong, I got ones with a flickering effect. You can replace the batteries too, but they probably cost more than the candles. http://welshpurpletree.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/imgp4491.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chucky Mama Posted August 26, 2010 Author Share Posted August 26, 2010 I bought some in the end. I got 12 flickering ones that are rechargeable. I am very pleased with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
