~~~A New GIFT!!!~~~

OMGoodness, I am so excited! The UPS man just rang the bell and we had no idea what he could be delivering since we hadn't ordered anything lately. I know, SHOCK!!!! But, we opened it up and  WHAT a BEAUTIFUL surprise!!! It is a housewarming gift from Joe's brother and SIL. A GORGEOUS pottery lantern from Pottery Barn! I am in love with it! I know I can use it all year round all over the house!! For now, this is where it will live.  I placed it on the tray on the coffee table in the living room. I love how the creamy color blends perfectly with the sofa. The openings allow me to see the candle and flame too.
 I put an orange pillar candle in it for Fall.


 I also love that it is pretty from all sides!

 The tray has leaves and pine cones embellished on it. Perfect for Fall!!!
 Thanks you SO much, to Dale and Linda. We BOTH love our new gift!!!! XOXO

  11. Hi Pinky, I do like your lantern and you were so clever to put the orange candle inside--I would not have thought of that but it certainly adds to the glowing effect! I hope your new house is feeling like home. Linda

    Are you all settled in your new house? We've been in ours just over a week and I still have boxes unpacked. Oh dear...it will take me forever and I am feeling, this morning, that I may just NEVER get straight again. whew....moving is so hard on an olden person.....

    So nice to meet you!

    How sweet to send you such a beautiful surprise! That's part of the fun, I would say, of receiving gifts, when they come out of nowhere!
