Clusters of Candlesticks
My husband and I went to a lovely dinner last weekend. It was a work-related event, so that is always fun to see people you have not seen in a while. Good food, good company, and a short commute; that always makes a perfect evening. When the night was over, we were presented with a beautiful pair of candlesticks. They are lovely. I am considering myself lucky, because I have some other candlesticks at home......although, nothing like these.
I would like to display my candlesticks. You know, don't just save it for company, use it everyday. Only, I am not exactly sure how to make a candlestick arrangement. Here are some ideas that I like
It seems that the trick is to keep all the candles the same color. I love the glitter ones. Do you cluster your candles?

Stylized China
I have been working on my china hutch. As I mentioned in this post, I am not happy with the finish so more tweaking is in order (pictures to come). In the mean time...until the stain is dry...I thought I would get some ideas on how to style a hutch. Styling a hutch or bookcase is a true art. I am so envious of all the people who make it look so effortless.....I am not one of them. Here are some china collections that I find inspirational.

Do you display your china? Is it stylized?
Mecox Gardens for inspiration
On a recent trip to Florida, yes to escape the AWFUL winter we had, I strolled into Mecox Gardens.
EVERYTHING in the store made my mind race with ideas. However, the most inspiring project idea for myself, was the way everyday plants were displayed.
I am working on my inspiration project this week, and will post it soon!
