Candles for Comfort

My kids are home from school today due to hurricane Sandy.

We are having a regular rainy day here but hopefully all around the east coast - everybody is doing well.

Yesterday we prepared for the storm by gathering all our flashlights and candles just in case we lose power.

Since I lit the candles I wanted to show you...

I cut twigs and holly leaves from our yard to place around the candles.

The cedar scented candle is wrapped in newspaper print tissue then
brushed with Mod Podge.

Stenciled Welcome in Sharpie (it is placed in the foyer).
Then wrapped in vine ribbon and thin twine.

A pretty, simple and natural display in case of an emergency.

Candles for Comfort.
