Wow, that was an awfully long title. I deserve a medal. I recently had a wedding to attend and couldn’t find a gift. I wanted to give them something memorable that they could have for years and years and not get tired of. I usually give some nice candlesticks for wedding presents. When I hit the stores I could only find stained glass unicorn heads and the like. Just a lot of pieces that the couple would have to hide until I came over to visit and they would need to drag that stained glass unicorn head out of the closet. To make things even more difficult the couple had a modern/funky style when I usually give crystal or silver plated candlesticks. These glass mosaic and iron candle holders would have been perfect. You get a set of three for, wait for it, wait for it, only $7.97. They have retail value of $29.99, and the candlesticks used to be $16, and now they are less than $8. These would be great to have in a gift closet when you need a present very quickly. Use them in your own home on a sideboard or dining table to add a funky/rustic/exotic air. I don’t know if that is an actual decorating term, but it should be. Just click on the picture for more information.
Most people have at least one outdated or “blah” lighting fixture in their house. I call mine lampy. Lampy is a 1970’s crystal/goldleaf-ed tall monstrosity. I fixed it up with a friend, and it has a deep sentimental meaning, so I keep it around. Lampy had a shade made out of white trashbags that was gathered with gold twist ties for design. So we changed out the shade and antiqued some of the gold, and lampy is still a fire hazard, but it’s my fire hazard. My point is, maybe your lighting fixture doesn’t have a name, and therefore you can change it out for something you really love, and then name that if you wish. This chandelier has a retail value of $130, it used to be priced at $79.99, and is now on sale for just $27.97. This is a great oppurtunity to update some outdated lighting fixtures. This would look fantaboulous in a dining room. Ok, so I just made up that word, but that is how good this deal is.
