A Candlescape in My Rusty Vintage Scale

Isn't it funny how some things, that most people just toss in the trash, get scapped up and loved by someone like me or maybe even you?

This rusty, old scale,  just needed a new purpose and using it as a hanging candlescape 
just seemed like a no brainer to me!

I found the perfect spot for it.... it, now, hangs in our living room's, front window.

 

 

It looks just right in between our, two, hanging, burlap planters.

 

 

 

 

 Rust with a little bit of glam...

 

my kinda style!

 

I'm sure this won't be it's only use...I'm thinkin' of a collection of old bottles, filled with fresh cut flowers, as we get closer to spring! 

 

Wanna see where I found it? It's the best place in Dutchess County!

 

 

Love, Hugs and Kisses,

Wonderland...Our Mantel Reveal

I want to begin by saying that I am, so, thankful that my husband and I have our comfortable home and the things that we love and cherish to share with you, in my posts, on my blog and thank you for following me!

But, before I begin, I am feeling the need to dedicate this Holiday post by sending thoughts and prayers to all of those not fortunate enough to be celebrating their normal festivities, in their own homes, this Holiday season. Specifically, those who lost their homes from the devesatations of hurricane Sandy, the train de-railment in New Jersey, those who are hospitalized for whatever reason and our brave men and women in the armed forces. I wish, all, a fast return to homes and loved ones and a new start to carry on and be surrounded with love!

Happy Holidays
& 
May God Bless 

   Now, if you saw the "little peeks" in my Pearl and Gold Candlescape post  then you kinda know what my mantel theme is for this year, so-o-o...

Let it Snow....Let it Snow...Let it Snow!

It snowed on our mantle and even in my pics.....I had a lot of fun with Pic Monkey's winter editing tool.

 

Here's an evening shot w/out the falling snow... 'though I did add more fake snow to the greenery.

 You'll notice more snow in some pics...look closely!

My wonderfully, detailed snowmen are cherished gifts, handed down, from my dad...I just adore them!

Jolly santas, from my mom, stand in place on the hearth.

Stay tuned for lots more upcoming posts of our tree...entry...chandeliers...vignettes and more!

Til then...enjoy the Holiday's to the Max!

Love, Hugs and Kisses,   

JP
