Changing things up……

Remember my search for the perfect sconce…..and how excited I was when I found this one?

Well, one day I walked into the dining room and knew instantly that the sconce would look perfect hanging on the chippy shutters I have in there.

 

Of course once you move one thing that leads to another……and then another right? So, then I needed something for the wall where the sconce was hanging. I bought these French script pages months ago at the antique market but never found the right spot for them.

When I first hung them they were floating between two pieces of plexi glass.They were beautiful but I knew as soon as I got them hung that they needed to be framed. I searched and searched for the perfect frames and ended up buying three Italian frames on EBay. I waited and waited for them to arrived and after a couple of weeks I emailed the seller and asked when I might expect them.I never received a reply, instead they finally sent a tracking number.I think they might have forgotten about my order!!?!Anyways I was so excited when they finally arrived only to discover they did not come with glass!!!!!!!I went back and read the listing description and apparently if you want glass you have to ask for it! SO, there I was with my beautiful Italian frames and no glass.Then it hit me, I could hot glue the plexi glass into the frame and not even take them apart.It worked like a charm and saved me the time and money of having to order glass for the frames.

My sweet husband brought me these flowers on Christmas Eve in this cute little galvanized pail. He arranged them by himself and had them sitting on the coffee table when I came down the stairs!!!!

 

Stay warm and have a great weekend my friends!
