Flickering Flames

Add a little beauty and romance to every room with the glow of dancing candle light


There is a relaxing feeling of peace and love that surrounds you as you touch a flame to a candle wick, and watch as the wax gently melts and the flame begins to reach upwards, flickering and filling your room with an instant aura of romance.

Without a doubt, every room in your home should have at least one grouping of candles nestled within your decor, giving an air of peace and romance while brighting your life and warming your heart and the heart of the one you love.

Candles are available in a myriad of sizes, shapes, colours and scents suiting all different design styles and applications, but one stands out from the crowd as the universal must have to fill each room with the gentle flicker of romance.

It may not be the tallest, most colourful, longest burning, or even effervescent candle on the shelf, but there is no doubt that the unscented, white tea lite candle is the crowning prince of romance that will have flames flickering throughout every room in your home.

The Burning Question …

I can hear the dissenting views shouting from the rooftops, “That is the most boring candle of the bunch”, but hear us out as to why the least appreciated and most overlooked candle holds the key to our hearts and will do the same for you.

If you enjoy having candles in each room of your home, there is no safer alternative than to fill your world with the flickering love of tea lights. When burning tea lites there is no wax to drip, and your holder encapsulates the base of the candle so there is no risk of hot wax damaging your furniture or floor, and no risk of tipping over and causing a flame MUCH bigger than you were intending.

By choosing white unscented versions of tea lites, there will not be any colour clashes with your existing decor, and without a scent, you will avoid the cloying left over artificial fragrance that is endemic of so many scented candles.

A typical tea lite burns for about 3 hours which makes it the perfect candle to have as the light in your dinner table centrepiece, burning in your living room, or for romantic accents in your bedroom. You can allow the little flames to cast their beautiful glow and not worry about any hazards if you miss extinguishing them as your evening progresses from one room to another.

So Many Styles for every Room and Decor!

When decorating with tea lites, one of the fun things you will notice is that there is no shortage of uniquely designed holders available to help you inject your little dancing flames into the decor of each individual room with as much pizzaz or subtlety as you prefer.

The plain white tea lite candle is always the favourite go to as it will blend in with any decor, and if you wish your flame to cast a glow in the colour of a certain design feature in your room, you may simply choose a coloured glass holder that will exemplify your desired colour effect simply and beautifully.

Whether you are looking for your holder to blend into your surroundings, or stand out in a beautiful centrepiece that is showcased by little dancing flames, your tea lite will be the perfect source of flame and coordinate seamlessly into your individual design and decor plan..

Simplicity with Elegance!

Adding candles into each and every room of your home is guaranteed to add a sense of calm, beauty, and romance all around you, and by choosing to decorate with white unscented tea lites, you will only have to keep a stock of one type of candle that will universally be used in every display where you wish to have beautiful flickering firelight.

Tea lites are typically sold packaged in 50 - 100 per package and sell for just a few dollars per package, so it is exceedingly economical to enjoy the beautiful flickering of flames in every room in your home on a daily basis without any concerns over burning the candle budget.

Fill your life with little dancing flames, and if you are not already a convert to the advantages of the humble tea lite, start by taking one room and converting your existing candle decor to tea lites, and see if you fall in love with this magical little candle the same way we have.
