Here are a few tips I got from our fire dept. last night when they hosted a Santa at the Fire House event.
- Make sure your outdoor lights are made for outdoors and any extension cords are waterproof.
- Don’t overload you electrical outlets.
- Keep candles away from things that can burn…like your Christmas tree.
- Consider using battery operated candles…some look very real.
- Never leave candles burning while you’re away, and keep children away from them.
Have a safe and happy holiday. Merry Christmas !
