I am a candle distributor and was just curious about how many candles you have in your home. They say 8-10 people use candles.

    We have candles for decoration, which I never burn,(5, maybe) and some for power outages. People often forget that candles are a good way to burn down your house - keep them away from curtains, in particular, and up away from anywhere a child could touch or knock over a burning flame (pets, too!).

    Tons, but I sell Partylite. I was a candle addict prior to that. I have pillars, 3 wicks, tealights, votives, you name it.

    I have none, what a stupid fire hazard.

    I have 3 or 4 decorator candles but buy 100 tea lights at a time and burn them at least 5 days a week.

    I am always buying them so I have over 20 right now. I sometimes burn one in each room at the same time. I love them. Even in the bathroom.

    4. I don’t buy more than I burn at a time.

    I also have one fragrance lamp, which I love!

    Probably about 40. Some I burn, some I just keep out. Those people who are worried about fires should know that there are SAFE ways to surn candles. Jars are the safest; the flame is contained.

    I would say I have 4-5 candles that I actually burn and 4-5 that I never burn, just for looks.

    Two for decoration. About a dozen additional candlesticks in the drawers to use when the power goes out.

    I am a candler also, So I think I have a few more candles than the average person does in there home LOL. But I did a poll recently on the same subject and most people stated they usually have one candle per room of there home.
    Hope this helps you out !
