This room was destroyed when a candle was accidentally left burning.  How does a little flame become so dangerous? According to the National Fire Protection Association, four out of 10 times, the candles were left unattended, abandoned or inadequately controlled. One in four times, something that catches fire easily was left too close to the flame. Sometimes children play with the candle. Sometimes someone falls asleep with one or more candles lit. 

A safety reminder:  Use candles only in rooms where there is a responsible adult awake to control and oversee the flame.
