Ballard's Design Candle Holder
Maybe I was feeling a little home sick and that’s why I was drawn to them. I can remember spending summers at my Aunt’s farm, by the beach, every summer for a week. Most of the driveways were made from oyster shells then. My cousins used to call me, my older brother and my younger sister, city slickers because we couldn’t run barefooted on the oyster shells the way they could. We were too tender footed. I remember it used to make me so mad! I wanted nothing more than to prove them wrong. I just couldn’t understand it. In Houston, we ran around all summer barefooted – on nice smooth concrete! lol
Anyway, like I said, I kept coming back to these candle holders. They aren’t the prettiest candle holders but they are so different. I love the gray candles that they have paired with them below.
And I love all of the different iridescent colors that nature has provided on the inside of the oyster shells. I love the organic shape of them. No two shells are alike. I was just drawn to these candle holders and I knew that I could make them myself!
