Hi there,

Have you ever looked at a flameless candle and thought, "That is nice, but what if it could be more?" We had the same thought. Then we paired one with a riser cup and a colored light, and suddenly a plain candle became something you could not stop staring at.

Colors blend, light shifts, and the whole piece transforms into something that feels like art. Here is what we have been playing with:

The wax luminary is the canvas. On its own, it is elegant. But slide a colored light inside and it becomes something else entirely. The wax catches the color, softens it, and sends this warm glow into the room that makes everything feel a little more intentional. Line three down a dinner table and your centerpiece is done. Whether you are setting up a wedding reception, decorating a restaurant patio, or just making a Tuesday evening feel a little more special, wax luminaries set the tone without any effort. They come in round and square shapes and multiple sizes, so you can mix tall and short, angular and curved, for depth.

Here is how it works. A battery tea light sits inside a riser cup, and each cup raises the light about an inch. The light shines upward through the wax luminary above it. You choose where to place it. Set the light at the top for a bright glow along the rim, in the middle for an even wash, or at the bottom for a soft ring of color at the base. Stack cups with the same color light to illuminate the whole luminary evenly, or use different colors in each cup to create a multi-color look that blends through the wax shell. The result is layers of soft color you can mix and change anytime. Most people do not realize the riser cup is what makes the whole thing work. Without it, the light sits flat. With it, you control exactly how the glow fills the luminary.

This is where it gets fun. These colored tea lights are not meant to stand alone. Pair them with a wax luminary and a few riser cups, and suddenly you have purple, teal, amber, red, whatever you are feeling that night. One luminary, endless color combinations. Swap a light and the whole look changes in seconds. We carry them in warm white, color-changing, and single colors like amber, blue, purple, and teal. Pick one color for a unified look or mix them across a table for something more playful. Each one runs on a simple battery and lasts for hours.

The best part is how simple it is. Pick a luminary, pick a color, add some riser cups, and let the light do the rest. No design degree required. Just a candle, a cup, and a little imagination. We would love to see what you create. Share your setup on Instagram with #My100Candles, you could be featured on 100Candles.com.
