    Question Who has their oil lamps out yet?

    Seeing as fall is now here, who has been using their oil lamps. When summer is here, we seldom use ours. I brought them out though this past weekend and will start to use ours in the evenings now. The kids love to use them especially when we have our supper.

    I need to get some lamp oil though as I'm just about out.

    Anyone using theirs yet?

    We use ours outdoors during the summer to help keep the bugs down lol.

    Haven't gotten them out indoors though.

    Ours stay out as part of the decor too. However, during Isabel we did light them and they will probably get more use as the winter sets in. We tend to loose power here pretty easy. I too need to buy some more oil though.

    I have mine out all the time too but use them mostly in fall/winter. With the power out here a few times the last month we have been using them. I love the "feel" of them and the wonderful glow! Lots of times in the winter I will have one going in the kitchen and one in the livingroom. Such a cozy feeling!
