Vintage Lighting for Holiday Celebrating

Vintage Lighting for Holiday Celebrating

Antique Brass Candelabras

Vintage Candlestick Holders are a decorative art piece for your space,
 it can provide so much more.

From a single candle holder to a large candelabra, you can transform the mood almost instantly.  Remember going into a restaurant that is very dim and the candles on the tables provide the only light.  How did it make you feel?  Were you on a date?  With a group of friends?  Either way, I bet it felt relaxing, intimate and comforting.   

In the modern world today, candle holders are not as common as in time past.  They are used in homes more as a scent releaser and we don't use them at our dinner table.

This Christmas, why not light your dinner table with a Vintage Taper Candle Holder or  candelabra.  Give your guest an intimate, comforting and relaxing experience.

So many options, so many Celebrations.  At your Christmas table or special occasions that they can be used.   Try adding different colored candles for additional looks.  Red for Valentines Day, Silver for News Years, Green for St Patrick Days, Color of the theme for a Birthday, Shower, Orange for Halloween,  Any fall color for Thanksgiving.  Get creative and start using Vintage candle holders and or candelabra as a new trend for your traditional celebration.

I quickly learned what I liked selling and what I didn't.  I figured out that the things I enjoyed buying, cleaning, researching, listing, storing, answering questions, packing, and shipping, for me, it was home decor and lighting.  This is one of the most important pieces of advise I can give you.  YOU MUST LOVE WHAT YOU ARE SELLING.    If you don't love what you are doing, you won't stick with it....

Packing and Shipping Your Vintage Items

When I first began shipping my items, I made a lot of mistakes, costly ones, which made me quickly learn the correct way to pack. Supplies Needed Boxes Bubble Wrap Peanuts Packing Paper Tape Shelf Adhesive Labels  Most of these items can be obtained free and low cost.  I will share these tips later in my posts.   Set up account with FedEx or UPS or both.  (I prefer FedEx but do have accounts with both.)  I will get into more details about the shipping companies in other post.  You can save a lot of money shipping by FedEx or UPS rather than the post office. Wrapping your item.   I recommend bubble wrapping most any type items, especially glass.  The large bubbles are the best protection for large items.  (I have had metal, brass, wood etc.. broken from improper packing.) Wrap the item a couple of times, tape it and them apply pressure to see if you can feel the item.  If you can feel any part, then wrap the area ...
