thinking of you....

this is nothing new to any of us, but a quick reminder of ways to create ambiance on a budget and remember those who are celebrating life, struggling through it or just need a shout out for a little bit of hope.

i can't always justify that $50.00 candle and can easily substitute that crave with a $0.99 candle you can get at most drug stores.

this particular candle has a scrap of leather (from a package i rcvd from my nephew) and simple tag you can purchase at most craft stores. i like to write the names of my friends and family i remember when i light this candle (for privacy i turned it around ;o)
