Inside these unbelievable candles, rather than a wick to light with a flame, there are 3 LED lights (the candles are battery operated) and these lights make a real-life flickering display, just like a candle!
When I pointed one out to my daughter ("See my new candle?), she nodded and started to walk off like, "What's the big deal?" Then, I literally took it down off of the shelf and showed her. She was absolutely astonished and intrigued. :)
ALL of the children were like, "Wow! Cool!" when they saw my new candles. My husband and I couldn't believe how realistic the "flame" looked when the candles were sitting on the shelf, how yummy they smelled (vanilla happens to be my favorite!) and although we thought that the wax might melt while the LED lights were on, the candles held for for the many hours that I kept them on. The 3 LED lights cast shadows, flicker, and create a true ambiance in a room, just like real candles! As a matter of fact, I LOVE these candles more than regular candles!
My list, as promised, will not be a million points long, but I have to share this with you:
* For parents with little children - there is NO FLAME to worry about! And, if you forget to "blow the candles out" frequently (like me), you will never have to worry about fire!
* You won't have to worry about melted wax on your tables, counters and shelves.
* They smell so darn good!
* The led bulbs will last over 100,000 hours (according to their website - I haven't had them long enough to clock that many hours!)
* These would make AWESOME Christmas or Valentine's gifts for a candle lover!
* They offer an expansive selection: styles, colors, and fragrances, smooth textures, distressed, glacier, and mottled!
* You can put them anywhere and not have to worry about the flame!
* Take them outside on a breezy day...and they still work!
* You will save money...lots of money!
