Before they fade away……

 

rose1

My sweetheart gave me these

gorgeous

roses for

 Valentine’s Day.

So, before they fade away

I thought I

would share a few photos.

2012 roses 025

 

Originally they came

in a bouquet

with Baby’s Breath

and Eucalyptus

but when

I recut them for

the smaller

vase a few days later,

I used just the

roses for a different look……

I don’t know about you but this time

of the year with the

long dreary

days I am definitely

burning a lot of candles!

 Sometimes I use elegant holders……

but then at times

 I just prefer something simpler too……

My mirror in the dining room

 

I just adore mirrors….any size

and in any shape!

In fact it is no secret that I

probably have

more mirrors in my house

than artwork!

--------------

 

Remember when Mr. Handyman

made me this trumeau

mirror for above the

mirrored chest?

mine before

It turned out beautiful but the color was

just never quite right.

The color blended in with the walls

and always seemed

a little off and it always bothered me.

So, after being inspired by all those beautiful

inspiration photos of wonderful

trumeau mirrors I

decided to give mine a

mini face lift……

with paint of course!

Here is the after:

It was hard to capture the

true colors

and detail since

it is so cold and gloomy here today.

My new dining room table…..

 

table 2

 

After waiting for months

and months

the resident handy man

finally had time to

make me a dining room table.

 I still have to pinch myself because

it doesn’t seem real!!!!

 

RH table in dining room 2 043

 

The top is made from

old wood and

the

legs are made of

new pine.

After the handyman got

the table assembled

 I got busy

mixing up the paint and

then started

painting……

the table legs were

painted with six different colors.

I just adore all the imperfections

in the top…..and

love that it has a story!
