Let It Shine

Tis The Season~ DIY Alert

How fabulous are these candlesticks?

Love the collected over the years from 

travels all over the world...effect.

Of course most of us don't have bins

of odd pieces china and trinkets  just sitting around...

however, a quick trip over to the local Treasure House,

Salvation Army, etc would do the trick and for a small amount 

of monies, a bit of imagination and of course,

a glue gun ...

something akin to this could easily be had~

for oneself or gifting.

OR, you could head over to the 

fabulousness within

the layered and collected world

of Anthropologie.

On a similar but different note...

Got a taste for a bit more shine

and modern appeal?...

                                    or soft spot for a plumber?

 Either way, it's an

adventure.

Patriotic Duties

It's the economy and 

we must support it.

Hello November

For me, Fall begins on November 1st~ 

(thanks Indian Summer)

and of course my thoughts turn to all things

 Midwest and East Coast~

cause that's where it all goes down.

Layers, coats, suede...

Right now, it's all about the rich browns and velvety textures...

And if this is what fall is really like, then I welcome it with open arms.

Let The Festivities Begin!

Yep, it's that time of year (that night) night where we embellish our homes 

and doorsteps with cut out pumpkins, flickering orange lights and 

lots & lots of  candy.

The one night to welcome strangers to our

 doorsteps both young and old alike, while dressed up in 

strange yet, familiar costumes.

It IS sensory  overload~ the sights, the sounds

the smells...

 ...and I wouldn't trade it for anything.

Play safe.
