I’ve said it many times before but I love Halloween…and part of that comes from my own childhood memories! Though we didn’t have access to all the stuff that’s available now, I grew up decorating and crafting for the holidays and have so enjoyed carrying that tradition on with my family! One of my most vivid memories of Halloween crafting with my mom is making black paper cats with long curly tails and displaying them throughout our home! I also remember excitedly heading to the basement where all our holiday decorations were stored to carry up the boxes which held all those special trinkets! So when my mom presented me with a holiday gift some while back, I was instantly transported to my childhood home and all those Halloween memories! The gift, a reproduction of tiny candles that I so fondly remember, was all wrapped up in a darling box displaying an illustration of each! You may remember these sweet guys as I do! My mom had them all…and I can remember like it was yesterday carefully unwrapping each from the tissue paper they were stored in…finding just the right spot in the house to place them! Today I’d like to share this simple Halloween favorite…
holiday memories!
such a fun and nostalgic gift! this sweet box from Two’s Company filled with tiny candles AND memories…
i think they’re darling…but i’m sure it’s my memories that makes me love them so much!
just like i did as a kid…i picked a special spot for each on my hutch holding all my holiday kitchen supplies!
this one actually looks old…part of his appeal!
i’m telling you, they just make me happy to look at them…it seems a little silly but it’s true! the one i remember most….
sweet little ghost!
vintage reproduction Halloween candles…
one of my favorite memories!
