Twinkle and Pink

These crystals for my new/old chandelier inspired me to change my blog header today.  If you have never tried Picnik, you can make blog headers very easily with this free software.   I ordered my chandelier from Etsy and it came with each and every one of these crystals individually wrapped in a little tissue packet all taped up.  It took me an hour to unwrap them all.

My house has been feeling too dark.  I am moving away from the more urban look to a lighter, fresher, more cottagey look.  I've been selling some of my old BITS so I can buy some newer BITS.  

So, the Razmataz Man has two surprises in store for him this evening.  When he arrives home from playing hockey, I am going to have a cold beer for him to drink and a pink chandelier waiting for him to hang.   Because it's good to start the weekend with some Twinkle and Pink.  Don't you think?

Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend with lots of sunshine and cheer.

Thoughts and Continued prayers for the wonderful, brave and dignified people of Japan as they head into the second weekend after this awful disaster with continued hardship and worries.

    Oh I love that and the fact that you will be moving to a "cottagy" look. That is my intention for my next residence! Heh, heh. Also thanks for the tip re the header, will look it up. Ann

    Twinkle and Pink is the best name ever...for anything! Love the chandi and the thoughts of spring, lightness, cheeryness, and prettiness that go with it. Just lovely!

    "...lighter, fresher, more cottagey..." is a space that sounds so lovely to me! Add an overstuffed, white denim slipcovered sofa and I might just move in! xo

    I hung an italian brass chandelier in my bedroom, I love them. But it doesn't have pink crystals. Pink is femine and lovely. I hope you post a photo when it's up.
