Candles of Christmas - remembering a set of NOEL angel candles that my grandmother had. My cousins and I would rearrange the angels to try and spell different words. Over the years, the angel's halos went missing. I'm sure that was to the little hands. Dressed in all white, with letters that were candleholders and metallic gold halos, I tried my best to transpose the memory of these to cross stitch. The pillow turned out so tiny and sweet, and I love it!
