Holiday Bling

This morning I was reading through my Daily Candy emails...one of London emails for Selfridges & Co. had this picture and is advertising Sparkling Thursdays. We have our own type of place like this...Sephora! What really captivated me was the usage of crystals to accent the makeup that had been applied. Remind you of anything??? How about Tulip® Glam-It-Up!™ Iron-On Crystals™?? Obviously this isn't for everyday usage...but it so glamorous and unique.
Love IT!!!

It's Countdown Time!!!!

Yes...Countdown time!!!
Only 10 days till the big day!!!
Every year it's almost a joke with my husband and I...he gives me a hard time about my birthday calling it my "birth-month". I just can't help it! For so long the big day has been spread out...I use to spend the entire day with my Grandma O (her and I had the same birthday!) we would start off with eating breakfast, then go out shopping....a little for me (who am I kidding...a ton for me) and a little Christmas shopping! But Grandma O passed away a couple of years ago and now my Mom takes me to do something special, then each one of my friends does something with me, and then my husband gets his turn! But I do see his point, it gets overloaded...kinda stinks having your birthday so close to Thanksgiving because everyone tries to get their "Birthday-Time" in before that!
I am turning "30" this year...not looking forward to leaving my 20's!
Although I love the celebration and the fact that everyone makes my birthday so special...let the countdown begin!!

Changing of Seasons...

I love the feeling that I get from looking at these pieces!
It reminds me of upcoming fall events...my birthday (only 2 weeks away, but already celebrating "birth-month"), leaves changing, pumpkin pie and spending time with family!
Last year I painted a pumpkin using Courtyard Art Glazes - Pumpkin Spice and placed it on my table. The rich color was stunning...I think that I need to add coordinating pieces to complete my set!
