Landmark Discoveries: Orlina-inspired Candleholders

It is Signal #2 here in Metro Manila because of Typhoon Hagupit/Ruby, and my mom and I were worried because we weren't prepared to deal with a black-out. We had about 3 candles and no candle holders.

We decided to brave the weather to drive to Trinoma, with my sister, so that we can buy candleholders and candles, just in case the strong winds of the typhoons cause some electric wires and poles to topple over.

As usual, Metro Manila is probably not ready to deal with this, because I'm sure the preparation that this current administration did in order to take action against this storm is to offer eggs in Sta. Clara church - I digress.

We went to Landmark Department Store in Trinoma, where we discovered candleholders that took inspiration from the glass sculptures of Ramon Orlina. And they were quite affordable to boot.

Couldn't decide which picture looked better, the one with the flash or without. 

We found these candleholders in the Home Decor section of Landmark, on the 3rd floor. They were only PhP 89.75 each, so we ended up buying all remaining 6 candleholders there. The stand was included in the candleholder. 

They are very heavy, they weigh more than my Macbook. So it was really such a steal. 

So we're ready just in case there's a black-out tonight, what with our Orlina-esque candleholders.
