Turned Candle Holder Into Book Display

This Angel Candle Holder I bought at the Victory Out Reach

Thrift Store. I knew I was not going to use it for a candle,

I thought and thought I knew Connor's Christmas Books

would be just the right thing to use this for. I love it for

holding books, cards, mail or anything.

VERY SPECIAL PINK SATURDAY (Nellie)

Do you remember when Cabbage Patch Dolls came out?? I

have a wonderful story to share about mine.My first husband

drove 90+ miles from Meridian to Hattiesburg, to the old Gibsons

Discount to get this one for me. The greatest thing about this is

that we had not been married very long. I must have been at least

twenty four.My thought this would be something to hand down to

my daughter if and when I had one. But as you know I only have

two Sons (Chad and Ryan). Two grandsons(Connor and Cooper)

I am going to continue to wait for a granddaughter

to pass her down to!! Gibsons Was SOLD OUT in Meridian,

DANNY was off the next day. I hated to ask him to go,

I made sure he was on the road early. I just knew to be able to

get one he had to be there close to opening. When he arrived,

walked in the(store) Gibsons all he could here were women.

That made it much easier for him to know where they were

located in the store. I asked for her to be wearing

Pink and have dark hair I wanted her to look like me my hair

was dark at the time but it has been blonde

for the last 30 something years. He knew more about me

than I did with getting blonde hair.

Sharing Nellie for Pink Saturday.

She has been with me since 1984..
