These candles are so lovely! I purchased them to use in the windows for the Christmas season but will likely use them year-round elsewhere. They have a realistic flicker and a soft flame-like glow that is such an upgrade from the typical window candles. And since they are LED, I don't have to worry about them getting hot and melting whatever they touch, or burning my children if they happen to graze them. Having a remote in lieu of turning each one off individually is such treat too! I can't recommend these enough!
