Candles are a favorite of college students all over.
They are also dangerous and rely on the user to be responsible. You no longer live at home, you have to remember to always blow out the candles and keep them away from flammable objects.
Instead of worrying about candles; Try these substitutes.
-
Electric Candles – This simple and cheap alternative can help you set the mood in your college apartment without setting it on fire. An added bonus is that most of these run on batteries so you never have to buy a replacement.
-
Wall flowers or plug ins- Think “out of sight, out of mind”, Wall flowers are a great way to keep your apartment smelling fresh without the melting wax. The actual plug in is reusable and you can buy different filler scents whenever they run out.
-
Reed Diffusers– Though these need to be constantly replaced; Reed diffusers add decoration and fresh scents to your college apartment without any electricity at all. The bonus of these is that they are relatively cheap and made a great addition to any desk.
Skip the stress, and try one of these alternatives to candles.
