Using these taper candles is a breeze. Simply place them in a standard taper candlestick holder. Light the wick and enjoy the warm, inviting glow for 5 - 7 hours. These candles are perfect for adding a touch of elegance to your birthday, wedding, party, or any event. When not in use, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain their quality. Remember, this listing only includes the candles, so you'll need to provide your own candle holders. Also, always keep an eye on burning candles and keep them away from flammable materials.
