Outdoor Flameless Candles for Summertime Entertaining
I am pretty fortunate that we live in the North East where we can entertain outdoors for 7-8 months out of the year. We love to invite family or friends over and sit outside to enjoy a great meal with drinks. It is very relaxing and we enjoy spending time with our loved ones.
In seasons past I would use battery operated lanterns and/or candles with a real flame. While these items do have their purpose, I was really excited to get a set of Outdoor Flameless Candles with Remote Control Technology to review for all of you.
You can find all kinds of great flameless candles for indoor, outdoor and special events by checking out BatteryOperatedCandles which is one of my favorite flameless candles stores!
The Outdoor Flameless Candles with Remote Control Technology are weather resistant candles that can be left outdoors. The set I am reviewing comes in a 3-pack and each flameless candles measures 3″ in diameter by 5″ high. I love that they include the remote control which allows you to place them in high places, tuck them into nooks and crannies & you don’t have to leave your seat to operate them. Very cool indeed!
They come unscented (so you don’t attract bugs) and feature a patent Realistic Wick Design. Candle Impressions is the only flameless candle company with a burnt-wick which gives them a very realistic look and unless you are right on top of them, you would never know they were flameless!
They are made out of plastic so you can leave them outside and not worry about the sun or heat melting them like you would with traditional wax candles. Each candle has a 500 hour battery run time which is fabulous too!
I have ours sitting on a table on our covered patio and I love them. In the very near future I am going to buy some outdoor candle holders or lanterns to place them in. I tried getting a photo of them glowing during the nighttime hours but my camera flash kept lighting it up like daytime. Sigh!
We just love them and in a few weeks we are hosting a dinner party at our home and I will be definitely using them while we entertain outdoors. I love that children & pets can be around them too and you have nothing to worry about & don’t have to babysit them 24 hours a day. One final thing, if you have epilepsy like I do, you should ONLY be using flameless candles inside and outside your home! It is the ONLY safe way to go!
