And there goes January

I understand the Queen has some openings.  I may throw my crown into the ring.

Isn’t that a pretty crown?  I have been looking for one exactly like that and found an Etsy seller that goes by the name, appropriately, The Queen of Crowns.  Shipping was lightening fast.  I liked this crown so much I ordered a smaller version to keep it company.

I ordered a few new books to inspire me.  So far I haven’t cracked them open yet.  Haha!

I’m probably the last to know about Nikki Boyd but she is a professional organizer out of South Carolina.  I’ve only flipped through her book but it is gorgeous.

I’m hoping to get some inspiration for my two problem closets.  Or maybe she’ll see this post and take pity on me and come organize them for me.

One can dream.

We are getting that sly January weather where the temperatures are starting to head to the 70’s and you are lulled into thinking that Spring is imminent.  It’s not.  We’ll get another six or eight weeks of rainy, cold weather for sure.

Let’s see what else is going on around here?  I haven’t done any projects except for one small one.  I have a chandelier like votive holder that hangs over my kitchen sink.  I’ve probably had it for ten or twelve years.  The “crystals” are plastic and over the past couple of years they have turned cloudy and yellow.

I found some inexpensive glass replacement parts off of Amazon and thought I would give them a try.  They are perfect.  I needed about 90 of them so I wasn’t about to try to find actual crystals.  The glass ones look and feel like real crystal and at a fraction of the cost.  I do like how it turned out.

All nice and sparkly again.

I hope your year is going well so far.  I know everyone says January lasts 927 days but to me it has flown by.

Until next time.
