x-stitch candle mat

I made my first x-stitch candle mat ... my thanks to Valma
for the idea. 

 Whilst looking through my goodie box I spotted a small shoebox  nearby that said had written on it  "to be finished" so I took a peek and discovered a couple of x-stitch pieces that I'd stitched a few years ago ..... and I finished them.  This is one of them ...


and this is the other ...

Now I must finish the other stitched items in this box.
