Small Changes

Ya know how you have those projects that ya mean to get to....but time gets away....WELL, the picture you are about to see is NOT one of them (the granite slab has been ordered twice and JUST came in RIGHT - yahoo!! ) so here is a lil tease of an up and coming project.....

A cute lil custom island chock FULL of storage!!
The pic below is one of those small changes that was so EAZY PEAZY ya wonder why the heck it took so long to get too!! The house came with this light fixture in the front entry ( while a Chandy would be MY first choice, there simple isn't enough length between the ceiling and a hanging fixture) brushed nickel is good, shade is boring builder grade....

BUT don't throw it away.....save it to use as a cloche in your spring garden!!
Saving it implies there was something else put in it's place......

TA-DA!! OOohhh, a FAB vintage glass light cover (the entire fixture was in tact BUT all I wanted was the globe). It looks kinda fancy and decadent.....like cascading opera curtains....

Isn't she pretty now?!?! That's all I've got for the moment! I wanted to snap a few pics of my christmas decor BUT time got away from me enjoying the kids while they were on Christmas break! This week the tree comes down and the Valentine's decor goes up! I have some CA-UTE things up my sleeve...stay tuned!
