"Something Old....Something New"

     It would be pretty difficult to choose "the best Christmas" ever because a lot could probably depend on where you are in life. As for me I have adult children, three beautiful grand daughters, a beautiful daughter in law and a husband whose love and support never wavers.

     And from this love and joy flows...gift giving and I'm thankful for my husband who always looks out for my best interest. He gives, gives, gives and this year he gave me this....13' MacBook Air, some computer accessories and a pair of the most beautiful antique sconces from one of my favorite consignment stores in Santa Barbara. I love the little switch on the side and I will trade out the amber colored light bulbs for some clear ones.

     I'm looking forward to blogging on my new MacBook Air, as well as improving my computer skills and finding just the right location for these beautiful antique sconces in our home.

     Until next time happy collecting, thrifting and gifting....and thank you Tommy.

    Thanks Koralee...hubby has been insisting I need my own computer and the sconces I "eyed" for a long time but declined because they were pricey and finally I go them. I wish you nothing short of Blessings for 2013 also!

      Thank you Dawn. My husband mounted them in the hallway and I changed the bulbs to clear ones. And I love having the lights on just to look at them. I found them at a consignment store in Santa Barbara.
