I guess it would depend.

[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]Which would fit in best with your overall decor? Is it a taper or pillar-type "candle"? What's around it? Do you have an overall coordinated color scheme or a happy hodgepodge of colors?

You could just tie an appropriately colored piece of ribbon around the middle of it with a sprig of something seasonal. Dying seems such a permanent solution and you might not like it anymore in 6 months or so.

I'm moving soon into an apartment building that is fairly old and the manager says they discourage candles because of fire hazard, so I'm thinking of getting a couple of those LED kind, too.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.

Tell me more...
