DEAL PRICE: $14.99 for a Set of Two Candles
It looks like a regular candle, it flickers like a regular
candle, but it is so much easier and safer!
No heat, no melted wax to clean up. This is perfect for use
outside because the "flame" won't blow out, and perfect for
inside events because there is no danger or mess. Use it alone
or in your favorite holder or sconce. The light flickers exactly
like a wick flame. 5" tall, 3" diameter. A neat idea for your
kid's or teen's room where you might not want an open flame. Take
it with you on your travels to make hotel rooms feel like home.
This battery operated LED flickering pillar candle can be used
anywhere you would use a regular pillar candle, and many places
you wouldn't. To see a picture or order visit:
