Hi Stefanie! Such a pretty idea! I am always looking for new ways to decorate with candles!! And I love incorporating natural elements!!

Just had to write and tell you how much I am loving my advent calendar!! It is such a lovely creation!! And I must confess, that I was so proud of myself for opening a drawer a day...even though I started early...ha!!...but then... I caved, and have been opening up more than one a day!! Too much fun! All the goodies are divine!! I may have to do a giveaway in the spring that is lots of little things to open!! Thank you again for such a great giveaway! I am sure I'll use this for years to come!

Hugs and blessings!
Becky
