Get this house LIT!
What I really like about these houses is that they can be hung or just sit on a table or night stand. Since they allow space for a electric tealight to placed in side they are a way to bring some holiday cheer into rou kids bedrooms at night, or just sit on a mantle. We really liked these tea lights from Amazon, they had a nice glow and last a good amount of time. The first set were great because they are .24 cents a piece and we use them for a lot of crafting projects or events, but if your not into that they also sell a 12 pack at .42 cents a piece.
