candle light.


Yesterday, just as it was getting dark, our electricity ran out. After the little machine thing stopped beeping, it was kind of nice living by candle light. Really cosy. I started reading All My Friends Are Superheroes, and fell asleep until my landlord arrived!

That's gorgeous! I love cosy little places. In my loft I've made myself a little nest of throws, drapes and sumptuous cushions with books and trinkets all lit up with just fairy lights. It's such escapism up there. I can't explain it but there's something about it that's just magical.

I use jam jars to put candles in when I have bbqs and parties in the summer and tie ribbon around them. Jam jars are good for mixing cocktails and salad dressings too, very useful!!

So pretty :) I started burning a Christmas vanilla candle last night, although I'm not sure what was Christmassy about it!
