Stay safe and prevent fire accidents by taking extra care when using candles at home. If you are thinking of installing a wall candleholder, choose a wall sconce with built in safety features. Get one with a hurricane glass that completely surrounds the candle from top to bottom. This will eliminate the possibility of having wax on your walls or floors.

Place your wall candleholder away from flammable objects like curtains, wall art, coat racks and other things that might catch fire if a candle is positioned too close. How high you install your candleholder should also take inconsideration if you have kids, pets and old people in the house.
