...an enchanted driftwood chandelier

 
hello my sweets!
 
do you ever find yourself seeking something,
that you can't quite put your finger on?
 
you just know that when you see it ~
 
you.  will.  know.
 
well!
this is the story
of just such an item
 ...
and how it came to be :)
 
 
 
 
a few ~ l o n g ~ weeks ago
i set out on a quest
to find a chandelier for my studio table.
 
not just ANY chandelier
 
THE chandelier!
 
an enchanting chandelier that would illuminate my pretties
as i created them...
and delight my heart to turn it on.
 
for my studio IS a magical place...
 
 
 
 
in those weeks of my quest,
i would find something that i thought "might" work,
bring it home ~
 
hold it up
 
and hold my breath!
 
 
yah no!!
 
notta
 
and
 
NO!
 
was usually the response from my lips...
 
i felt like Goldilocks, i tell ya!
 
 
 
 
i had grown weary of looking
 
until one day, while creating at my studio table
a light bulb went on,
so to speak
 
LOL!!
 
and these photo's are the result of that epiphany that day...
 
 
 
 
yep!
as you may have already guessed
i ended up designing,
 what my heart was seeking...
 
which is what i should have done to begin with!!
 
 
 
 
a few lace covered pieces of perfectly greyed driftwood,
a hand gathered white linen shade,
crystal swags that dance when the sun hits them or the light is lit...
all spun into one enchanting chandelier!
 
 
sigh...
 
 
 
 
another sea washed treasure,
to adorn my cottage...
 
 
 
 
this is my studio table...
it is ever so magical when i plug in my fairy lights around the table
and my enchanted driftwood chandelier!
 
most especially as the days start to grow shorter...
 
 
 
 
 
i know it will provide much more than just light
in the coming months ahead,
as i sit beneath it
 and create away...
 
 
 
 
for it will also allow me to be swept away
and dream
if only for a moment or two...
on such things as the beautiful sea
 
 
 
 
and pondering on other fairytale delights,
to share with all of you!!
 
 
 
 
 
like, perhaps this sea silk rhinestone cuff ...
 
 
 
i hope you enjoyed your visit today!
thanks for stopping by...
