Thinking of a corner shelf or other option.
Looking for ideas-not on the table.
Thanks!

On a piece of furniture. Not sure what it's called.
Has a cabinet beneath where we keep candles, havdallah items, etc.
My mother does the same.

I light on a narrow chest of drawers, in the corner of my dining room. I haven't been able to find it online recently, but this seems to be a similar idea: https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/m.....3593/

I light on top of a four shelf bookcase. Not full height, but high enough to be out of the way.

I've seen a lot of people install a purpose built shelf with glass walls and a glass door surrounding it for the candles. Normally the top is open or partially open to allow for air flow. Either in a corner or wherever they deem it convenient. Some people say it's to protect the children from the candles, others say it's to protect the candles from the fans/air conditioning!
