I blame Rosa at FlutterFlutter. Ever since she posted about DIY: Eyebombing, nothing is safe around here. Light sockets, utensils, lamps…you name it, the Eyebombers will have left their mark. I had such high hopes for an elegant and refined autumnal centerpiece, but I should have known better. Instead of small glass vases filled with candles and berries, I have these:

The Kaiser. (Named by Will, our military historian.)

Henrietta. She’s English.

Pierre. (Notice the beret.)

And last but not least…Candlestick Guy.

It’s not quite what I had in mind, but I just might like this version better. Now if I could just get Laila to quit stealing the gourds from the front porch.
