...step into the light!

... sunrise

a new day to seek ~

with our arms open wide...

  

another opportunity to be grateful, 

for the things that we have ...

another quiet miracle before us...

  

as we step into the light

  

and see ~

...what will this day bring?!

while we are on the subject of light...

living in rental homes,

I am often challenged by pre-exsisting light fixtures.

I have a small collection of beauteous crystal chandies

that follow use wherever we go!

hubby o' mine is most proficient at hanging them,

I think he's only ever been shocked once...

granted,

he did look like Doc from back to the future for awhile

lol

anyhoo,

in my studio,

there is a cathedral ceiling

(ie. it's too much work to change the pre-existing chandie out!!)

so what's a girl to do to glam it up???

well, add shades for one!

embellished ones!!

I simply added my rose petal ribbon garland around the bottom of these linen shades,

and then gave each one a bow made out of vintage lace and my sea silk,

and of course, some bling ~ vintage rhinestone earrings!

each are a little different,

and I just love how they turned out!!

I'm thinking of adding a french damsel to each one too!

 for extra romantic adornment...

I've also started adding strands of pearls and crystals on the arms of this chandie

 

it is quite convenient when looking for just the right faub, having them all within reach! 

what do you think??

here's to a day in the light!

* sharing this at Kathleen's White Wednesday:)
* Sarah's Good Life Wednesdays
come see if there is anything that lights you up!!

...angel whispers and white tulips

...hello dear ones!

can you hear them?

The angels ~

hear them singing??

whispering melodiously

...joy, Joy, JOY!!

There are two flowers that I always try to have around me at Christmas time

the first is paper whites, and the second

~white tulips~

I just love their graceful lines,

these seem to be nodding along with the angel whispers!!

  

this morning the sun cast a glow around them that was oh-so-lovely

I snapped a few photo to share with all of you:)

and to wish you a Sunday filled with happiness and cheer

as you buzz around preparing for the holidays!!

here's to glorious white tulips!!
