My favorite xmas decorations are..

the old figured Christmas candles. They remind me of my childhood Christmas'. My mom had a whole collection of them and unfortunately they were discarded so now I am always on the lookout for pieces to rebuild a new collection! They just make me smile!

  1. Hi Cheryl!
    I love those old candles too! In fact, there is an entire box full someplace around here...I think in the basement...may have to go digging tonight after work! I hope that you are enjoying this holiday season with your family!
    Take care, Laura

  6. MINE! My mom also had loads of the old Tavern candles. I would play with them as a child...we had lots of choir boys and girls and would stack them on home made risers. Thanks for such a sweet memory. Sea Witch
