It's always a little sad to pack away the Christmas things but it's also an opportunity to take new photos and share. You've seen this Radko reproduction bubble light candolier before but never with the box--the graphics are outstanding--click on the photo; it's from their Shiny Brite line--we do wish Radko was still making these--and their Sparkletown putz house reproductions too. You can find old Radko stock at www.misternostalgia.com and a similar candolier at Vermont Country Store http://www.vermontcountrystore.com/store/jump/productDetail/Landing_Pages/Holiday_Decor/Bubble_Light_Candolier/61394 - and here's an original Royal candolier http://www.flickr.com/photos/vintagechristmas/7763264758/
And if you love bubble lights, check out the outstanding collection of Mark P: some repro Radko items, some vintage, quite a few vintage items lovingly restored too http://www.flickr.com/search/?w=27088143@N03&q=bubble%20light

The memories those bubble lights brought back were wonderful. I ordered the "candolier". Thank you so much for all you do to keep our holiday traditions alive.
