A Prize

Last month, Lady Caer Morgana from For the Love of Cats  and The Wiccan Life had a raffle for one of two black cat prizes. A fuzzy black cat pillow and a black cat candle holder and candle. You know me, a sucker for a black cat. So I put my name in the hat for the little, candle holder. 

I don't use candles in the house. Ink loved to know things off tables and I was always worried he'd be fascinated by a candle flame. So no candles. I thought I could repurpose the holder to use as a small ink well. 

My Lady contacted me to say I had won, and she would get the package out in the mail. But what was this package? It was so big and wrapped as if it was holding the crown jewels.


The black cat candle holder with a gold taper and a lot bigger at 8 inches high than I expected. My bad. Not my Lady's. I should have asked about the size.


As it turned out, it holds one of the Dinky Dip cups I use.

Thank you again, my Lady. The holder is really quite beautiful.

      My! You're up early or haven't you gone to bed yet? No, I didn't paint it. Just the glare from the overhead lighting.

    That is a very cool candle holder. And I'm glad it holds your favorite sized candles too. Happy Monday!

      I haven't had candles except birthday candles for over 20 years. Ink loved to knock stuff off tables so I ditched all my candles.
