Beautiful Light
The sun has been there all along, but we keep just seeing clouds and haze. Winter is upon us and this year seems to be a time of dreaming about spring and the beautiful sunlight it brings. The wind is blowing and the plants are leaning toward the south because of the north wind. We love spring and we love to see a snow in winter, but this year the snow has been here deeply and long. People who live where there is no snow would love to enjoy some of this we have had. The people who have snow every year are all probably ready to see it leave as are we who usually have at least one big snow and then it melts and we have rain and a few flurries of snow.
When we can’t have much sunlight or we have it and it is still cold outside, we can come inside and enjoy our beautiful lamps. We like to light the candle lamps and enjoy the scent of the candles we have placed there. We enjoy now more than ever the beautiful lights we have placed around the house. We can’t change the weather, but we can turn on the light that we like inside the home. Just enjoy it and look forward to spring. What a happy thought!
Storms
This time of year we seem to have quite a few storms across the country. The winds blow, the rain falls, there is thunder, lightening, snow, and the electricity goes out. Then we go to look for the candles or the flashlights. That is when we are glad we have that candle lamp
we bought a short time ago. When we light the candle in its beautiful holder, it helps take away the feeling of being caught in a storm. If we have used a scented candle, there is something else to enjoy while we are using the lamp.
In the place where you put your candles for emergency lighting, be sure to keep the type you want in your candle lamp. Using it helps to take away the feeling of being in a storm. When a storm comes, even before the electricity goes off, it may be that lighting your candle lamp will take away that “stormy feeling” and make the time a time of enjoyment whether or not the electricity toes off. Happy times!
Lights for the Season
Remember the
days when there were no electric lights for our homes? I do. But just barely. We call those the “good ole days,” but the part about using candles and oil lamps I can do without. I was looking through a catalog and saw the beautiful candle holders now available. Some look like the lamps we have for our electric lights. That is now a beautiful way to enjoy the candle light that is so nice this time of year.
I got to thinking about it and remembered we have some of those that I had forgotten. There are some beautiful candle holders in our cabinet that we use for the pumpkin-pie scented candles and the other beautiful Christmas candles that we get out in the fall and winter. Some holders are large enough to look like a regular electric lamp. When we use these scented candles in their beautiful holders the scent wafts throughout the house and we enjoy the scent of the season. Candle lamps are indeed a beautiful addition to the fall and winter decorations. Light one and sit back and enjoy the time of year.
