Hello my sparkly friends!
I thought I would share my way of making use of cloudy antique crystal and growing houseplant cuttings at the same time.
I adore going to yard sales and thrift shops, and many times I find crystal that is gorgeous but a bit cloudy or maybe it has a chip or two which makes it unsuitable for the table. Well, instead of passing them up, I adopt them and fill them with either fresh cut wildflowers or turn them into sparkly mini planters! Here are a few pics
Thank you so much for stopping by, and please leave me a comment to show me how you use your crystal! xoxo Tobi and the Pixies
Greetings! My motto is "Life is too short to save your prettiest stuff for company-USE IT everyday to bring joy and beauty to your life!" my style is pretty eclectic- I mix natural elements like rough sawn aged wood and branches, with vintage crystal and chandeliers. I love anything chippy, shabby and with a story to tell. If I had the choice, I would live in a Hobbit House. My Yard would look like an English fairytale garden, the back yard enchanted with all manner of fae folk. My decorating style is an eclectic mix of natural elements like Jerusalem stone, rough sawn planks and branches, old rusty stuff like farm tools, scales and fireplace iron, mixed with pretty girly stuff like crystal, roses, lusterware and carnival glass. I collect Lefton Pixie Planters, Flow Blue anything, Fenton Hobnail, Old blue Mason Jars and seltzer bottles, Early American Pressed Glass pitchers,Cobalt blue glass, vintage Czech glass crystal jewelry... Dressing up a house is one of my favorite things to do!
They do look pretty.
