Victory!



In my last post I shared the Montgolfier chandelier in the Breakfast Room.  Though lovely, there was something about it that didn't feel congruous with the room.

So I did what I always do...
I became serenity challenged, unbalanced and a little restless.

Has this ever happened to you?

I feel it is my obligation to create an air of calm in our home environment and this...this mere chandelier was determined to threaten our harmonious existence!?

I think not.


Each time I passed I would scrutinize it...but not too obviously, lest it sense my vulnerability.

"Dost thou mock me, fixture?"

When I saw my chance I leapt with a stealth I had never before known!

I crept upon it when the lights were extinguished and I bound the miscreant with crystal embellishments!
Feverishly, I worked to tame the beastie who had taunted my waking moments and menaced my slumber! 



 I had vanquished the traitorous villain and returned our home to the halcyon days of yore!
It shall vex me no more!

Woe be unto the next rogue of scurrilous intent who dares to pass through these halls...

I am ready for you!


Whatever the threat, I shall emerge victorious!




This is what happens when I don't get enough sleep!

Hope you like the chandelier!

xo,

Andie

    1. I never rest, my friend. The mind...it never sleeps. Now I am wondering if it is, perhaps, too much?

      LOL!

  3. Andie...you entertain us all with your ability to create a lavish environment in your home...and now you have entertained us with your witty *Shakespearian* style of writing. Love the bling...and glad you were able to foil the *scurrilous intent* of that light fixture! Warmly, Mary, The Old Elf

  4. You do realize that you are LOOSING YOUR TINY MIND?
    If you're not careful.....you'll end up as crazy as I am.

  7. I am MAD for that chandelier. Gilding the swags and adding the crystal strands and pendants was a stroke of pure genius. What I love most about all the grandeur , elegance and sense of drama with which you have infused your house, Andie, is the running theme of delightful WHIMSY that keeps it all from being the least bit pretentious.

    You really should be officially named a National Treasure. And no, Im not kidding.
