    Good for you Oddie, finally people can buy your pretty creations--and give you more money to buy even more supplies to create more pretty things!

    This is a really pretty candle box. I immediately thought how perfect it would be for a wedding too. I could see it on the table next to the guestbook, can't you? And it will go really well with all the romantic rooms so many love to create now.

    Be sure and tell us how we can find you on Etsy. Hope your creations sell as fast as you make them. ;o)

    You are indeed talented and your creations seem to get nicer and more lovely. I have a Granddaughter who just got engaged. Not sure if there is going to be a Engagement Party or not, but this arrangement would be beautiful!

    Oddie,
    Beautiful! Please share your Etsy store name with us. Also, I would be very happy to help you with setting it up, helping you out, etc. I do this for another friend of mine and she is doing well there. I opened a store last year but life got in the way and now I am just a buyer, not a seller. Just email me if you'd like help:
    ano0706@yahoo.com
    Please put Oddie in the subject line so I know it's not junk mail!

    Best of luck!

    Oh Oddie, I just love your lamp box. Best wishes on etsy with your shop. You do such wonderful work. I've been getting into making those lamp boxes myself.

    Oddie..these are awesome! Besides weddings-what a great gift for a Hostess gift, house warming, Valentines, child's themed nightlight, etc. Just by adding a special adornment (beaded heart for Valentines, a tiny figuerine, Xmas ornament, etc) & this stunner is truly an all occasion gift! Justa' thought...by making a larger box & placing one of those acrylic or ceramic hands (that is a ring holder?)amongst the arrangement. How cool for a man who is going to propose to his gal, by placing the diamond ring on the finger of the ring holder, then placing the box on a romantic dinner table! The candle would make his diamond sparkle even more!

    Thank you! glad you all liked the candle box,and thanks so much for the ideas, sounds like everyone is thinking wedding type of decorations when they see it, Wow sharon_fl you must be a real romantic person to come up with all of this! my brain was thinking spring! and the fact that a splash of yellows goes in most all rooms, just goes to show you alot of heads are better then one!
    Grdngrl_7va, has been so nice helping me with my store! so much to learn! hope she dont lose patience with me, Iam a slow learner! would rather be crafting, but cant have all fun without the work if I expect to sell anything LOL!
    Thanks agine
