Dan, every time you present these Mr. Christmas blow mold candles you describe these. The now "antique" blow mold candles, which we actually have!! When I started dating my husband in 1982, they were outside his grandparents front door at Christmas, and I remarked to his Nana how neat they were. When she passed away, my mother-in- law moved into the same house, and they used them each year as well. Plug-ins with a small 25 watt bulb because my father -in-law didn't want the house to burn down. When they sold the house, my husband came home with the candles as they remembered I liked them so much!!!! My husband rewired them, still plug-in but safer, so the tradition goes on for my grandchildren. Already one of my sons has requested them to inherit, he loves the rerto look. He will also get a blow-mold Santa and Snowman. Thanks for all you do, you make shopping very entertaining and informative, I love the farm and family stories. Be well, and I hope you have the best holiday season ever. Rosemary Friend (tried to find you on Instagram but no luck)

Rosemary, I assume you're speaking of Dan Hughes.

Your family sounds a lot like mine.  Lovely tradition to keep memories alive.❤️
