I'm Lovin' it ( I think)


For years I have seen similar chandeliers in my favorite magazines. Sometimes they were left unadorned and sometimes they had "stuff" in them, you know, like dried artichokes or faux fruit. Now they have this chandy available at Pottery Barn for a somewhat reasonable $299. and I am not sure if I like it anymore. Ever happen to you?? Guess we covet what we can't have or find and when it becomes available it has lost it's clout. I am sure there is a lesson here somewhere.

Later,
Janet

  1. It's a cute chandy- but I'm with you - I do that all of the time. I have a Coach purse in a bag in my closet that I am struggling with right now. Do I want to keep it, or should I take it back? ~ Robyn

  2. Surely have felt that way. As I get older and have less money to spend and see how unimportant things really are. I wish I had been that way in my younger years. Oh well not complaining. I guess when you see your child in such intense medical fragility things just don't matter.

  3. I love that chandie...it is very country French. It seems I love things until I buy them, if they are trendy. But if they are classics I love them forever. I think this chandie is a classic.

  4. Sometimes you've just seen it too much and it isn't different and special anymore. I like to have unique things.

  5. Yes, all the time! As a result, not much changes around here (smile)! I think I've finally decided that, for me, the lesson is: less is more!
