Make Something Extraordinary From Something Ordinary
Recently, I gave these beautiful Christian La Croix bottles of water in a party favor bag. When the water was gone I couldn't bear to part with the gorgeous and stylish bottle. By purchasing a simple pour spout (like bartenders use), I was able to turn it into a designer dispenser for liquid dish-washing soap. Stores like Cost-plus sell the spouts. This can be done with any cool bottle that you don't wan't to throw in the recycling heap. Make something beautiful for your home and do something nice for the environment too!!!

Chandeliers! Chandeliers! Chandeliers
I am crazy about chandeliers! Here are three that are currently hanging in my home. Two are in the kitchen ( yes, I said two!), and one is in my dining room. The one with the leopard shades came out of my previous house. Leaving that home was a heartbreak so the chandelier is a pleasant reminder that sometimes we can bring a little bit of "home," with us, no matter where we go. The gorgeous dining room fixture is quite special to me because it was a gift from my husband when we moved onto this home. It is especially unique in that it has amethyst and smoky quartz colored crystals
I think there is a chandelier for everyone and everyone should have at least one! A little crystal and sparkle can make any home feel elegant. In my opinion, antique or vintage are the best. Often priced relatively the same as a new one, the sophistication of something that can't be purchased at a your local home center is invaluable! Check tag sales, garage sales and consignment stores in your area for that special piece that will put your personal stamp on your home.
This woman has issues. She does not know how to tell the truth. She claims religion? I have never heard of a religion that condones behavior such as hers. Use extreme caution we suspect a medical / medication issue. Her behavior continues to go unchecked and condoned by her family.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with the above comment. Has to be some type of Bi-Polar issue. I have witnessed behavior that would scare you. Don't get financially involved you will go broke.
