Picture Picture .. Theme "Hobby"

Apr 10, '08 11:47 PM
for everyone

This weeks theme is Hobby and there are lots of things you could put here .. I love lots of things but I am going to share one of my weaknesses and Hobbies and that is collecting and making candles .. I have not made any of my own in quite sometime but I have LOTS and LOTS of candles ..I have round ones , tall ones ,skinny ones , all colored ones .. I also have ones on tables, ones on the walls and some that hang , I am a candle buff for sure and I will never ever get sick of them .. I also keep a large stock of tea lights , votives , tapers , pillar candles .. I LOVE my candles and so I will share a few with you .. I wanted to make a collage of lots of my candles but I couldn't get my program to work so I will just share 4 or 5 pictures with you ..

The pictures above are only the tip of the iceberg with me and candles ..I have them in every room , I have them on walls , tables and I even have some packed away in a box for future use .. I switch them up from time to time cause I have so many and everytime I go somewhere I could buy more but I have put a ban on myself for awhile or so long as I can hold out LOL ..

My kids have tapered my use of candles. But I do share the love. Very cool to see some of yours :)

Cool. I haven't seen anyone make a candle since I was a kid. My dad collected them at one time.

Funny, all the Google ads on this page have something to do with candles, yes, I know, it's algorithms or something. Anyway, as long as you have a fire source you'll have lots of light. That top picture of the sunset is stunning.
