Tea Cup Bling

I was out and about today, and decided I needed a bit of shopping therapy:)  I, usually, frequent tag or estate sales, flea markets, or my favorite vintage shop haunts in search of home decor.  I like to “redefine” or “repurpose” items  (as so many of you do) to fit my own decorating style.  But, today was different…… I found myself roaming a Ross Store.  Um……I had fun:)!  Look what I bought…

I have this “Thing for Bling” in my decorating, which contrasts so much with my personal dressing style.  I wear very little, if any, jewelry.  Go figure?!  But this “Tea Cup Bling” made me smile and giggle…just so-o me.  I could have just set them stacked on my buffet as in the picture above, but I felt they needed to be “elevated” to a higher level, so to speak.  So I….

hung them from my kitchen chandelier.  This was once a more contemporary chandelier, but I painted it, added French drop crystals and beaded shades to put my stamp on it.  Over the years, I have attached vintage floral cups or those to mark the holiday season.  But…..these with the BLING are going to be a permanent fixture….they just make me smile:)

I will be joining White Wednesday at Faded Charm Cottage.  Please join us!

Have a wonderful evening everyone!
