Little lights

It's not the great pumpkin Charlie Brown its a little light.
Little lights warm our souls as the days get shorter. This time of year I find myself lighting candles at night or just sitting in front of the fire watching the flames dance.
These little lights put out enough of a glow to walk across a room and make a dark room feel safe. I have others I’m working on in the studio today and will post them very soon.

Twig shadows reflect nicely on the walls bringing in nature and leaving the cold wind outside. This light sits on a wood base with bingo balls holding it off the table.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN

With a light bulb Lenall an open flame is not permissible and as they are paper I don't think it would be a good idea. Thank you both for your comments.

These are beautiful, Tory - I love your use of paper and organic shapes and the warm yellow light the lamps produce

These are lovely, Tory! I like the variations of shape and textures and will look forward to seeing more in person--lit up to "help us walk across a room".
