Mini gourds and tiny tapers ~
Love these petite, pale white gourds. They’re
pretty enough, placed in a simple white …French bowl,
but when I spotted these
tiny, tiny tapers, I thought the
the two were made for each other. I
searched around for a proper carving utensil and
began carefully whittling away at the stem.
The result was
this…
and
this…
and…
this.
Love the pop of orange, against our
new graphic sign, celebrating our
hometown. The gourds & tiny tapers look rather
festive on our sideboard.
Once lit, they add a
little understated, Halloween
vibe to the room.
I can totally see, a line of these, dancing down
our Halloween holiday table, one per place setting,
can’t you? I know, candles and gourds
are nothing new but I love that the gourds are real and
I think the tiny tapers, give the notion…a fun little twist!
