Oh jeez do I have memories of candles in the windows!
I'm sure it started out as a Christian tradition, that somehow turned into more of a holiday decoration ... ( I rather doubt they expected baby Jesus to arrive a month early
)... electric candles in every window ... had to be plugged in every night for at least a month or Mom would have a fit. Now the fond part of the memory
... the candle base was too wide for the window sill so they were taped, which rarely sticks well to wood ... so often they were hanging upside down from the sill. You would think it was the end of the world when we would arrive home and Mom would notice a candle missing in a window! My poor dad would fly up the stairs to fix it.
@thistlebloom ... they now make pretty LED candle sticks with a light sensor to go on when it gets dark.
I think
@digitS' should let all his neighbors know ... it would add a bit more warm glow to the block.
Haha! I got a total visual of that....giggling my head off...
So a candle stand would need to be fashioned for each window. Do not see that happening. I may find a stool the right height to put in the window nearest the front door.
