Why on earth would you put these 24" candles on a dining room table?  The hosts make it sound like this is beautiful on a table.  NO WAY!  Nice candles around house, by front door, etc....NOT on dining room table!!  You don't block people from conversations. Too huge!!!  Sorry....not good!!

I agree, they were out of proportion to the size of the table and looked cheap and silly.

@walker@Kachina624  ~ I totally agree!  Maybe if we were from the land of the giants!  The vendor was really stretching her imagination. 🤦🏻‍♀️

@walker Agreed, the candles on the table look absolutely awful!!  They are doing literally everything they can to sell these ugly pieces.

@minimalistWF ~ I don't think they're ugly, and would look better if they were taller.  Absolutely agree candles look awful on table.

My hubby and I were laughing at the TSV.   We used to have one that looked just like that in the 80's except it was all plastic and a bit taller, it was actually hideous!   We used to have to go outside to plug it in at night.   (LOL)  Not to poke fun at those who liked it but we never really cared for that stupid candle and finally got rid of it when we moved into our bigger home.   Just cracked us up.

  All the pictures I saw made it pretty obvious those candles would do best on the floor or outside.  Television is as visual as it is audible.  I am not too worried thousands of buyers will be disappointed.

As a retro piece I guess these work, but they're too big for a table and too small for a porch, IMO.

I wish they would have made them taller. 36 or 48 inches.  I remember them when I was a kid and the size made them look especially nice at your front door.  I would have bought them in a minute.  I think to small for outside and to big for inside.  Strange size.
