Candle in a Pumpkin

Gourd and Pumpkin Filled Candleholders

To be perfectly honest, a great many Halloween decorations are tacky, tacky, set-your-teeth-on-edge tacky! So it’s practically a civic duty, a public service, to mention those that rise above the common hoard…

I do like these clever ceramic Gourd and Pumpkin Filled Candleholders, quite a decent buy at $4.95 (from Wrapables.com).

Not just for Halloween decorating, they’ve got a lovely harvest vibe — great for an autumn table centerpiece, or just grouped on a fireplace hearth, or by the front door.

And now I’m starting to wonder whether it’s possible to make a candle in a real hollowed-out gourd, or if the wax wouldn’t set right because of the moisture… ???
