Sparkles, Sparkles
All that glitters isn't gold, although some is.
I've been taking practice photos in my new 'product shot' space in my office. I came across this great sequin trim in my craft box, a pass-on from my Mom. Nice one Mom. Just look at this stuff!
Please note, although this trim is 'mainly' gold, it also has an opalescent quality with a rainbow of colors showing themselves at different angles. Love that.
So, I did a little looking around the Internet and found some really great glittery things that I'd be happy to incorporate into my life, one way or another.
Pretty gold and pearl and cashmere curtain tie backs. My curtains would be tied back all the time.
On another subject all together, I am swooning over that curtain fabric.
OK, back to glittering.
So cool. A glittering canvas.
That's a do-able project. It's also beautiful.
Oh my, the things you could do with these embellishments!
Delicate and pretty. Yes?
Silver glitters too.
Bright, shiny love.
These boots are made for walking and attracting attention!
There's an easy how-to. I think they're a ton of fun and tres chic.
A lovely little corner with the coolest silver ottoman.
Great color on the parsons table, and even the capiz chandelier glitters.
The prettiest olive forks EVER.

The details are amazing.
Oh, how lovely this would be on a dresser.
The glass glitters, the pearls glitter, the candles glitter.
Of course, you may have noticed from my Christmas mantle, that I have a good dose of crystal glittering around the house.
I've been lucky to receive a lot of Waterford Crystal as gifts over the years.
I think I'm inspired to find a new way to display it in all it's glittering beauty.
See where a little roll of gold sequin trim can lead you.
What about you? Do you have anything that glitters in your life? In your home, in your wardrobe, on your nails, on your feet? Or is shiny and bright a little too over the top for your taste?
Although there is snow on the ground, it's having a tough time trying to glitter today. It's too busy being whipped around by the wicked wind.
Don't forget that tomorrow starts the next shop and blog link up on Mercantile Muse. Link up or keep your eyes open for some great finds!
Have a great day in your corner of the world, whether it's hot or cold.
over and out,
PS- Note for Di: feel free to let Mrs. Roy know that she inspired the subtitle today. Or did we?
