When you shop the sales at the end of last season there is often a fun surprise waiting in the decorating boxes! I felt like I had just opened a present when I came across these tree candles because I had forgotten completely about them.
I wish I had a whole bunch more! But for a while they'll make things merry and bright.
These polka dot candles actually were a present. Just what I like to get. Candles can be a little indulgent, so they make a good gift for anyone.
My oversize green ornaments are vintage, but new to me this season. They add to the glitz of the silver tray and candlesticks.
A few goodies from the bakery can be almost as dazzling as the glitz! YUM!
White has a way of making things dreamy. The more the better.
Party on!
Thanks so much for joining the fun!
Ciao! for now!

Absolutely dreamy! Love the vintage green ornaments and charming candles- your vignette is beautiful! :)
ReplyDeleteI love the way the way the candle light reflects off of all the beautiful things in your photos! Looks great!
ReplyDeleteTake care, Sue
I say this every time I visit your blog....but I love the serenity that exudes through your beautiful photography!
ReplyDeleteOh So Pretty Jacqueline Sweetie...
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous share. So serene and beautiful. You can just feel the clean air in all the whiteness. It reminds me of the clean fresh cold air that you find after a fresh snow. So beautiful.
I too love the white tree candles. I can see why you snatched them up, and yes I do love a surprise when I open a Christmas box and find purchases that I completely forgot about.
The vintage ornaments look so beautiful in those pitchers. What a beautiful way to display.
I hope you have a gorgeous Wednesday. Many hugs and much love, Sherry
I love candlelight and you have captured it beautifully in your photos. Just lovely.

ReplyDeleteI love the fact you lit them! What's the point in having lovely things (which you do, BTW) if you're not gonna enjoy them?

Beautiful photos!

I love beautiful candles...and I've never seen any like these! Lovely! ♥
ReplyDeleteBreathtaking. . .yet peaceful and tranquil with the whites. In the past I have steered away from the Christmas Tree candles. I think I see a purchase in the near future. Thank you for showing how truly illuminating Christmas can be!
