With this gorgeous DIY twig candle holder. I know this may looks a wee bit fallish for July, but hey, that's what summer feels like these days in my little rainy part of the world. Warm socks, hot tea, candle light and california dreaming ...

  2. Oh my dear dear Martina,

    This is a great idea! I have learned to love the use of natural objects such as wood in this form to use with my French décor dreams! And we will soon have to be thinking of how to keep warm because around here, at least by November, things drop in temperature!!!!

    Oh I hope you see Midnight in Paris when it comes out. I have not seen it yet, but i have heard GREAT REVIEWS!

    BIG HUGS TO YOU MY FRIEND! Anita

  3. This is so pretty! I may have to do this in August as I love to bring little reminders of the outside in.

  4. I love candles and love this idea, Martina! It's foggy and chilly here on the beach in California so it already feels like fall. Our "hot" time comes during our Indian Summers in the fall. My favorite time of year!

    So nice to hear from you! And like you I need a man with a sense of humor. Lucky us that our men make us laugh, and occasionally mine makes me pee my pants from laughing so hard =-)

  22. This is a great DIY project, liebe Martina. I do lit a few candles every evening, it is still so very chilly. Must say ich liebe dieses Wetter, well a bit more warmth is welcome though.
    Een gezellige avond, lieve Martina xxxx

  23. Martina,

    This is such a cute craft. So, it sounds like you are still having the same kind of weather. What a bummer. We are having some sunnier days, finally. It's been a strange summer weather wise though.

    Hope you're having a lovely week!

    xoxo

  26. This looks like fun, I love candles and it never hurts to start of Fall ideas in the middle of summer. I might actually get them done by Fall if I do, LOL!
