I bought several of these sculptural figures with a timer candle. Now, they no longer light up and there are no replacement parts at the Q or on their website.

 

Rather than toss (because I really like them), I found an easy fix: put a tiny votive candle inside and turn it on when you want light. Worked for me.

@zitawins  Thank you for sharing.  Those cheap little tea lights work in some small pieces too.  I buy them and they last quite a while just using in the evening hours.

@zitawins  @lucymo  A few years ago, I bought some flameless candles at zulily.  I didn't like the color when lit, candles were white but glowed yellow, so I cut off the plastic flame tip, it was down inside the candles not on top, and inserted a white light votive in each, on timers, works great.
