I love the symbolism of the advent wreath… and it has always struck me as so appropriate as we move into the (physically) darkest time of the year, at least here in the Northern Hemisphere.

I’m not Catholic, but I find this very peaceful, and a great reminder of what the season is all about. I’m going to make one for my home!

What a lovely idea. The candle light is really inspirational, especially this time of year.
