Well it is that time of the year again when we start to count down to christmas. Each year we have an advent candle and always light it a dinner time. When the children were younger it was a great way for them to be able to see how far away christmas was. I love candles and I especially love the decorations you can find on advent candles. This year I had lots of trouble finding a candle. At first I wanted to make one like we did last year but I couldnt find a shop that sold candle decorating stuff. So luckily I found this solitary candle, designed by Jette Froelich, a danish designer. I think I will have to stock up on the candles when I find a good website that supplies them.
And here is the other side of the candle, so no matter where you are sitting at the table you have a nice view.
A friend of mine who has just arrived "home" from denmark gave me these lovely little nisse for christmas decorations. I just love them and all thing nisse-ish. The Danes really know how to decorate for christmas.

I remember your candle last year, it is a lovely tradition and I think you had better stock up too.
Such cute little gnomes!!!
Those are adorable. I have never heard of counting down with a candle. I just got done making an advent calender for my kids to count down on.
