The light was turned off, the lantern was discharged, and all that was left was a candle. It's okay, you can use it, but do something in advance that will extend its validity.
If we do not mention such critical moments, candles can still be a symbol of romance and coziness. In any case, they should be in every home, because they are often needed.
Let them burn longer
The candle can run out quickly. The wax melts and drains. This process can be slowed down. To do this, you only need to do one simple action.
Put the candle in the freezer in advance. About a day. In any case, a frozen candle burns much more slowly.
So now the romantic atmosphere or force majeure without light can be supplemented by longer use of candles.
