my love affair with glass

I chose glass.


Those little crystal flowers had me at hello. I just needed a little enabling to go ahead and "scum" shop for myself so close to my birthday.


And the furniture getting the dainty baubles? My master bedroom dresser. I love how it lightens the dark wood. (Yes that is my cable line. This is how I roll..dainty glass knobs with hideous cable cord.)


I also love how the glass knobs curtsey at my battan & board.


My little green topiaries look even more at home. (Mr. B's side)


Because we all love a great BEFORE & AFTER:


BEFORE (excuse me while I die from embarrassment)



And Happily ever AFTER! Look at my lovely cream magnolias peeking in the mirror.


I am giddy that my master bedroom is slowly evolving into the room I envisioned..and one that I truly love.

Cheers~

  8. LOVE the glass and the sneak peek at your room redo. Can't wait to see more of those magnolia flowers - hello gorgeous! Got your emails (blushing) and I agree, I think we found each other again for a reason too. Not losing you this time chica :) We've got waaaay too much in common. BTW, picked up a carmel apple candle at Wally World today and I'm going out tomorrow to get all the ingredients for the cider :)

  10. You completely transformed that piece of furniture!! Ohhhhh, I am so loving this little peek. I'm totally getting a French colonial meets new world glam meets coastal cottage vibe.....am I close? You don't have to say it, I already know what you're thinking. FC, put down the wine......

    (The more embarassing the BEFORE, the more I love the AFTER btw!)
