Check out these lovely items.  These are things I absolutely love!  I love decorating and if I had a ton of money, decorating for me would never end and I would do so much more.  I have found that I am drawn to natural or more rustic elements as well as feminine and classic items.  I love mixing a rustic table or piece right next to a shiny mercury glass lamp or hurricane.  I love the little touches of elegance and sparkle right up against a more rustic piece.  I cannot get enough of it.  Some of my favorite places to shop for things like this are Cost Plus World Market, Pottery Barn, West Elm, Pier 1 Imports, Stein Mart, Kirkland’s, JoAnn’s, Family Tree Garden Center, Hobby Lobby and Michael’s to name a few.  Often times, I will go to Michael’s or Hobby Lobby and use my coupons to pick up cotton twigs, bundles of birch logs, items to make a wreath, frames and metal buckets or tins when they have them in stock.  Finding something great at a deal makes for a very proud moment for me.  I love to craft so if I can make an item for half the price, that’s what I’ll do and usually mine looks better to me anyway.  I find inspiration online or in stores and go with it!  I think…I can do this!  So, I try it.  Nowadays, I make all of my own wreaths and I love that touch of unique on my front door.  I am considering opening up an Etsy shop to sell these items that I love so much!  I want to expand on what I make and how I create.  So, give it a try…try a touch of natural with shine and sparkle!  It’s amazing!!!
