This giveaway is now closed. Congrats to Wendy {wendypchef@…} — out of 86 entries {via blog comments and FB comments} she was chosen at random via the “And The Winner Is” WordPress Plugin. I will contact you shortly with the information I need to get you your candles!
I absolutely LOVE decorating with candles, and even though I’m not doing much decorating these days, I’m already getting excited for when all our home renovations are complete and I can get out my bins of candles and decorations once again. However, the one thing I don’t love about candles is the open flame. We’re definitely careful, but there’s always that possibility of something catching on fire, spilling wax, or forgetting to blow them out at night. I’ve heard horror stories — and I don’t ever want our beautiful farmhouse to be a casualty of a simple candle.
So when I was contacted by Enjoy Lighting and asked to try out their battery powered {and absolutely gorgeous} candles, I couldn’t wait!! These candles LOOK and FEEL exactly like real wax candles, and they come in a huge variety of sizes, colors, and scents. The only difference is that they are battery powered and don’t have a dangerous flame. Every candle has an on/off switch on the bottom as well as a timer option that will automatically shut off after 4, 6, or 8 hours — just in case you forget!
Oh, and guess what… one lucky Simple Organized Living reader is going to win a set of 3 gorgeous Enjoy Lighting flameless candles!
The giveaway includes:
- ONE 4″ toasted coconut pillar
- ONE 4″ mandarin spice pillar
- ONE 6″ mandarin spice pillar
And yes, they do smell as good as they sound!

fun giveaway andrea! I like to decorate with candles on my end table. When I light them there, they tend to make the house smell good when company walks in the front door!
Kristy Smith says
I would love to use them in the little girls room as a soft light as they go to bed, sort of a fancy night light. :o)

subscriber (email/facebook)… I love real candles and I adore flame~less candles for a multitude of reasons…emergency lighting for sure during power outages….marking the driveway for evening get togethers, but the best thing is with teen & preteen girls always wanting “ambiance” in their rooms open flames are out of the question..battery operated candles give them the chance of being “grown up” without the risk of carelessness…

I love to have a candle going in the washroom when we have company, especially on Christmas Eve.

I love to put candles on the mantle and light them all up. I also like to make an arrangement on my dining room table.

I use candles for my yoga class and during my meditation. I love the beautiful ambiance they bring. These look wonderful!

I love the look of a flickering candle – don’t love having them lit with my little guy running around. This would be a great option! I have decorative candles by my fireplace and on the side of my bathtub. Also there is usually a candle or two on the mantle – I rotate decorations every month or so.
Julia says
Favorite way to decorate with candles – at Christmastime, on my mantle, interspersed throughout pinecones and pine garland.

These look so real! I’m sort of a distractable person, a real side-tracked home executive, so I use candlewarmers instead of lighting them. But these would look pretty and not make little glass pots of hot wax sitting around, waiting for a nephew to dump it on his white shirt and the floor and the wall and the cabinet . . .

I love to put candles all around the house. They add color (even when not lit) and then add fragerance. I love to lite them prior to guests coming over to help the whole house smell fresh and inviting. I use them as center pieces or as and addition to a current decoration. I LOVE candles. I can’t wait to have an outdoor living space where I can begin decorating it with candles as well.

I love candles, but we have tons of animals so can’t use the open flame =(

I love chubby pillars of varying heights. I have some on a vintage buffet, the dining room table and the mantle. I rarely light them because I rarely sit down in one spot for more than a few minutes ๐ so i end up dusting them.
I would definitely ‘light’ flameless candles. It wouldn’t matter if I left them ‘unattended’…..the absolute no-no of candle burning.
I love your emails! Congratulations on your baby news.
Pamela says
I don’t do a ton of decorating with candles (but I would with flameless!) because I have a toddler and a newborn, and we live in earthquake country (Southern CA). Potential for disaster, right!?! I’d love to try flameless though — that would be awesome.

We use candles as a simple decoration on our mantelpiece; one of the few things we can agree on. I would use these in the bathroom; the flameless factor would let me add something to the high shelf in there without worrying about kidlets.
Dawn says
I LOVE flameless candles! They are especially great to use when you have small children around. I decorate with them all over the house. And flameless ones are nice because you can put them on a small shelf where you couldn’t put a real candle. I like using them on the mantle, a grouping of different heights, in a cream color. Simple, but it looks nice.

We have candles on our dinner table almost every night. We also have them on our fireplace mantel. We used to have them all over the place before kids. These would allow us to do that again! Cool!

I haven’t tried any of the flameless candles yet because they look so fake….these look nice! I’d probably use them in the room we hang out in most…the family room, for that homey feeling they give me. In our new home we have a mantle so the’d be perfect there!! ๐
Donna says
I love flameless candles. I use the battery tea lights in my galvanized decorated pails during the holidays outside and also in the summer on the patio. I also use the tea lights by place settings for dinner. We also use them in the windows at our church so the glass globes don’t get dirty from the flames.

I use candles and love them but one of my most favorite ways is to calm down rowdy kids at the dinner table. I turn down the lights, light candles on the table and put on some soft music. Even hot dogs become a gourmet dinner, the children love to feel sophisticated and instantly calm. Conversation can be relaxed and enjoyed.
Vicki says
Love them.
Tamara Phillips says
I love decorating with candles all over my house but, now with a busy almost 2 year old I hardly ever light them for safety reasons. I’d love to win these. Thanks for an awesome giveaway. I already have you on my google reader! Thanks!

These would be perfect for our screened in porch and outdoors where wind makes regular candles difficult.
