Scented Candles Set Curtains Ablaze

March 15th, 2010 by admin

For my birthday I was given a set of expensive scented candles that smelt divine. I had plans to use them for ages, but never seemed to get round to it until one Friday night when I found myself at a loss for something to do. I had bought myself a book and some chocolate and planned an indulgent night in relaxing. I set the candles up on my windowsill thinking it would give the room a nice ambience, which it did and the smell was lovely. Unfortunately I had had a really busy week and was more tired than I thought I was and dozed off for a couple of minutes before I had time to blow them out. During this time one of the curtains caught fire from the candle and I woke up to see it in flames. I was quick enough to douse it in water and put the fire out, but I had to claim on my home insurance for the damage.  I had to sort out more info but in the end it was an easy process.
