BEWARE-- Don't use these candles!

Not all candles are created the same.

I've been lighting my Shabbat, HolyDay and Yartzeit (24/48 hour) candles in the same corner of the house for the over twenty years we've been in it. Never has the wall blackened, that is until this past weekend, the three-day Rosh Hashannah and Shabbat, we just celebrated.

Here's a photo of the type of candle, which had been burning. It looks clean, because I took the picture at the grocery store.

    we put ours on foil, near on on the stove area cos there's a vent and less likely to fall there.
