Fire Safety Tip from Tori: Blow Out Candles at Bedtime

I love the holidays! Every night at our house candles glow, the Christmas tree sparkles, and I dream of my first white Christmas. But, a forgotten burning candle can cause a devastating fire. So at bedtime, my mom and I make sure every candle is out. Because even though candles are beautiful,  they can also be dangerous.

Candle fires are four times as likely to occur during the winter holidays. Make sure no candles are burning when you go to bed.

Be safe this holiday season.
