Charming Chandeliers

I am a down home, lakehouse loving, cut-off jeans, Texas girl...and I love that! But can I be honest? Sometimes I love the elegance of a gorgeous chandelier. The best thing about chandeliers today is that they can often be extremely affordable. Here are some affordable and probably not so affordable chandeliers...

 A shabby chic little girls room. 

A chandelier is the perfect touch to make any girl feel like a princess!

 Can't afford a chandelier? Chandelier wall decals are a nice but still cheap touch.

Another great option is searching for a reasonably priced chandelier on eBay...give it a coat of spray paint in the color of your choice...and voila! A brand new chandelier.

 Affordable? Probably not. Beautiful? Oh yes.

A chandelier in the bathroom? Yes, please!

Do any of you have chandeliers in your home? Did you get a great deal on it or was it a major expense? I'd love to see some pictures. x

Beautiful Blues

How about some inspiration involving one of my favorite colors today? BLUE...whether it be turquoise, robin's egg, midnight blue, or an electric blue...I love them all! 

I love all of these different variations of blues in these different vases.

Two beautiful turquoise rooms with great photo collages.

.I love the mix of beige, white, and electric blue in this room. Electric blue is definitely one of my new favorite colors.
