Tiki Torches

Have you ever wanted to redo your city apartment and relieve it from the metropolitan feel? Have you ever wanted to step into a sanctuary each time you go home from work? Believe it or not, Tiki Torches are the solutions to your problems. Tiki Torches literally spell paradise. The Polynesian feel gives a certain high as if one is being wrapped with the goodness and richness Mother Earth has to offer. Serenity and Harmony will burst into your once dull living space.

However, it is very hard to seek soil in this cemented world of the city. Don’t lose hope because all you need are a couple of patio torches that provides the same feel as tiki torches.

I once got the chance to visit my high school classmate who I thought was having delusions that she has brought Hawaii to her 9^th floor flat in the middle of the city. This is worth seeing so I did and I was shocked! She was definitely right about Hawaii! By strategically placed tropical plants all around the flat coupled with her natural fondness of taking care of plants, her flat felt like a tropical rainforest minus the wet rain.

The hustle and bustle outside was silenced by the sound man-made rain from a cheap water feature that she assembled herself.

But what really completed the mood are the tiki torches in her patio. We dined beneath the light emitted from the torches and the feel is very authentic almost real. For a moment I even felt like Tarzan enjoying a forest feast.

Aside from the tall tiki torches, my friend also made use of table top torches to further illuminate the room so that it wouldn’t be too hard to see the food and the guests. These are also a nice choice for those whose flats do not have too much soil to plant your tiki torches. Also available are torches that can hang from the railings of your patios.

Worried about your torches being a fire hazard? Don't be. Also available in the market are tiki torches running on propane which you can manually control the strength of the fire with just a turn of a knob.

However, if you really don’t want to settle for less than an authentic soil planted tiki torches, you can try filling up plant containers with soil and voila! instant ground where you can freely plant your tiki torches the way you like them to be.

The bottomline is, no matter where you are, you can still have the Tiki feel if you want to. All it takes is just a little creativity and some Tiki Torches!
