craftyhunnypie Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Thought you might like to see my chicken tealight lantern I bought from a place called Dagfields! The kitchen looks a bit bare, as we have recently decorated!!! But spot the chickenalia! Emma.x P.S The coconut. is my lucky coconut (Hindu tradition) - I know it's nuts (no pun intended, but my god it works)!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 It's a beauty. Any pics of it with the lights "lit"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen & co. Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Emma What did you post this for, now I might have to go to Dagfields karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted November 20, 2007 Author Share Posted November 20, 2007 They were just dotted around in all the junk halls - but obviously new, not junk. I think it was £6. Quite hard to get a tealight in it & you would need some extra long cooks matches or a long gas lighter. Nice tho eh? Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted November 21, 2007 Author Share Posted November 21, 2007 Hi - yes it's a remoska - with scones in!!!! The doors are the original 1930's ones - we try & keep the house original. Oh & yes, the coconut is flowering, it flowers once a week usually every Thursday after I've had new bunch of fleurs! YOu have to give the coconut gifts...ie : flowers for it to work. Try one out, oh & it has to be near the door!!! I told you we were nuts!!!! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
