<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="text-align: start;"> The Community Manager at </span>Chairish<span style="text-align: start;"><a href="https://www.chairish.com/">;</a> an exclusive, curator approved, online marketplace for vintage and used furniture asked me to come up with some mood boards to celebrate color. She wrote, </span><span style="text-align: start;">"We understand when choosing a color palette for a room, </span><span style="text-align: start;">it can be hard to step away from basic neutrals, </span><span style="text-align: start;">and going bold is a big decision.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="text-align: start;"> We'd love for you to share your taste for color by creating </span><span style="text-align: start;">a style board around a </span><span style="text-align: start;">vintage rug by taking a room from W</span><span style="text-align: start;">hite to Bright!"</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">As someone who loves to reuse, refurbish and rethink, I was up for the challenge.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The website <a href="https://www.chairish.com/">Charish.com </a>is so full of amazing one of a kind finds, I was like a kid in a candy store!</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">As if I could make just one mood board?</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">So here are a few ways I would take a room from </span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="text-align: start;">"White</span><span style="text-align: start;"> to Bright" using rugs I found on Charish.com.</span></span></div>

When I help people style, I become their second set of eyes. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I help them discover how to pull together items they already own.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
All of the items I used for these mood boards are from the website Chairish.com. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This website is the ultimate treasure trove and it is so easy to use.</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Going from "White to Bright" doesn't always mean going crazy with color. I fell in love with this teal dresser on Chairish.com so I added the artwork to make the piece feel like it has a purpose. The art was bright but sharp, so I used soft circles to oppose the harsh geometrics. </span></div>

This mood board is influenced by my love of retro items, as well as Kentia Palms from Lord Howe Island. It combines the two to create a bright green environment that would make me </div>

so happy to work in.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
These Rainbow Wrasse fish swam circles around my ankles everyday on Lord Howe.</div>

Their coloring is incredibly bright and this next mood board from "White to Bright" is certainly inspired by them.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Early this year I was asked to come up with ideas for my son's School Fair to raise money.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So with a few weeks to spare, I ran around to my favourite shops for some inspiration.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I knew that wooden beads were on trend, and as </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I didn't have any, I made the above beads with counting blocks.</div>

I had this awesome neon cord in my work shed.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So I started to play around with ideas that kids might like, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and maybe even a Mum or two as well.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My son's school loved the idea.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But then I couldn't find the beads anywhere!!! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I finally found someone in the USA who shipped them directly to me, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but they were smaller and more difficult to paint.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So back to the shed to figure out a way the little ones could still enjoy this stall.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Dots....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
were a perfect solution.</div>

This is the Stall on the day of the Fair.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It looked amazing</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and we had some awesome Mum's help run the stall. :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Just want to say thanks again to them.</div>

It is back to school time and </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
there is nothing better than a happy healthy household.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We have been on holiday for a long time </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and it is so good to get back to eating healthy again.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
In the morning or for an after school school snack</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I always make the kids a </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
"Rainbow Smoothie"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It has every colour of the rainbow of course.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So it is the perfect way to get some greens in too.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">2 x Strawberries (fresh or frozen)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: x-small;">1 x Mango chunk frozen</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">1 x Green ice cube of Kale and Spinach blended up</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">10 x Blueberries (fresh or frozen)</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The kids LOVE our homemade smoothies.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love that they are getting a variety of great nutrients</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so I can relax a bit more about having picky eaters.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
On hot days I use less Cider and all frozen fruit</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
to make "Rainbow Slushies"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

A creative friend reminded me about the little mini loom she used to make jewellery on.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I was inspired and went home to give it a go myself.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I beaded each row onto the loom.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then the difficult part was weaving each and every thread back into the woven piece so it wouldn't come apart.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Lately I have been doing a lot more home styling.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Summer has been showing itself lately and </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I think people are just excited for a change this Summer.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Andrea's House</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>The Brief:</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
To solve the furniture issues in the Living Room</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And to add lots more storage!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjW0qFKZd2OHzugSAaRL8BrDr6zRXBYDwn59wAU2X0sYp1CJ02_wV4e0M6VppFcG7Fyjdze1AMnRPlYAVV7Vn0PHAn_FXvQHXFf4WdE7ABOtv69VeZZdE7ppcSi-vCiRtpC0ungvf85m-sG/s1600/Andrea's+Old+Plan.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="544" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjW0qFKZd2OHzugSAaRL8BrDr6zRXBYDwn59wAU2X0sYp1CJ02_wV4e0M6VppFcG7Fyjdze1AMnRPlYAVV7Vn0PHAn_FXvQHXFf4WdE7ABOtv69VeZZdE7ppcSi-vCiRtpC0ungvf85m-sG/s640/Andrea's+Old+Plan.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
BEFORE</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>The Problem:</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Extra large sofa was facing out the window and made TV watching difficult.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Not enough seating.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Not enough storage.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Line of sight down the Hallway went straight to messy TV cords.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Furniture placement felt awkward.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBGP8bFqfTQ_hh0SVekqP82CsZAaGKv0IkaaWMIMg-RCt3U20EQ_hxh1RT5tftR0z0-4-NjphZ4A-Mg7XFnHGQ23T7Dd6SEiJKPwML55v2ofw3QtoWsjXuw7tt1IvlvRyR3sLHnWmh9Jn6/s1600/Andrea's+Living+Room+1.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="467" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBGP8bFqfTQ_hh0SVekqP82CsZAaGKv0IkaaWMIMg-RCt3U20EQ_hxh1RT5tftR0z0-4-NjphZ4A-Mg7XFnHGQ23T7Dd6SEiJKPwML55v2ofw3QtoWsjXuw7tt1IvlvRyR3sLHnWmh9Jn6/s640/Andrea's+Living+Room+1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
AFTER</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>The Solution:</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Flip flop the TV and the dinning table.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Turn the couch sideways and add a small chair and coffee table.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Add 3 small stools under kitchen bench for more seating.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Place a small buffet in the previously unused space for extra kitchen storage.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Create a lovely line of sight to the dinning table from the entry way.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Create a purpose lane way to the outside without walking through a zone.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFQFn9rvvRebyOaddvCPr03BUCgGhzN5aMcTqz6rbQ1JveQPa_SmV9ZqMYQMhdFezTknxgqucUunSSYw9yw7k-9RNjc8xvDzDRP5eAhXr3xP7BFtY4U6bj3Lprlcl9l6gwALl-q6b9zq4w/s1600/Andrea's+Living+Room+New+Plan+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="312" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFQFn9rvvRebyOaddvCPr03BUCgGhzN5aMcTqz6rbQ1JveQPa_SmV9ZqMYQMhdFezTknxgqucUunSSYw9yw7k-9RNjc8xvDzDRP5eAhXr3xP7BFtY4U6bj3Lprlcl9l6gwALl-q6b9zq4w/s320/Andrea's+Living+Room+New+Plan+1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think they will be able to really enjoy this space now.</div>

A friend just had a baby. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but she didn't know what she was having.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I just found out it's a Boy!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I thought she might</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
need a little something boyish for him to wear.</div>

I put little branches that had fallen off the tree outside<br />
in little brown recycled bottles.<br />
I thought they would look nice on the window sill for something different.<br />

But instead this seems like the perfect place for plant propagation.</div>

All the little branches grew roots instead.</div>

I recently came across some copper leaf at a craft store.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have always wanted a good excuse to try my hand a metal leaf,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but never had a project in mind,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
until now.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I saw the above metallic vases at Country Road this year.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
By the time I went to buy one they were all sold out,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so I thought... why not try and make my own?</div>

For a while now I have been admiring these</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
lovely screen printed doily cushions</div>

at the shop around the corner.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love their stuff,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but I can't go buying everything I see and like.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So as usual...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I wanted to make my own version</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
as a cheap alternative to brighten up a chair I have in mind.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have a collection of doilies that I find at Opp shops for around $1 each.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I selected the finest one I had.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I mixed up a bit of blue dye left over from another project.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The doily soaked up the dye perfectly and the colour turned out better than I had thought.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I made a cushion cover out of white linen I already had.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I stitched the doily carefully around the edge.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh my gosh..</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It turned out so well.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think I like mine better than the one I wanted to buy.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love that there is real texture to it and it looks so delicate.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I recently did a major clean out of the house</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and gave a lot away to good will. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This French Connection sweater below was from the 90's and just too short and fluffy to wear again.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was packed up and ready to go to the Opp shop.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Until....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I had a read of my favourite magazine.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The black and white contrasting cover caught my eye</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and I had an idea.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIW8BNyY5p2BPHyRrF2SiMusFQjk77m47KPp7bz7hNmnlv0uyTwbbbe9yEfjSuvh89PM55UFTrbXzCANAdLwad5zxVHoL2w1rIS4O4WHeLvdFv6kV1wc8v-DLWzHNcSrUSLc5Rf5xBHj1A/s1600/black+cushion+4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIW8BNyY5p2BPHyRrF2SiMusFQjk77m47KPp7bz7hNmnlv0uyTwbbbe9yEfjSuvh89PM55UFTrbXzCANAdLwad5zxVHoL2w1rIS4O4WHeLvdFv6kV1wc8v-DLWzHNcSrUSLc5Rf5xBHj1A/s400/black+cushion+4.jpg" width="300" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As usual when I read my favourite style & home magazines</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I like to try one or two ideas I like</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and apply them to my home to keep it feeling current. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
after seeing this cover,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I decided I wanted some more contrast in my bedroom.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wanted a black,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
chunky knit cushion</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for my bed.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivzf5sLQ9EDJ8MPOAspV9zyGumXyEWCbToFOAVekrOPzxu1gGBpB4ye5-eWKno-snumbddKJPw1Q4Zs9xDq3YT6VmOimYU7STv0BomCUfwy6shrmS85yZPAQD4Ssa144EZPuM9o7M4Qjmv/s1600/black+cushion+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivzf5sLQ9EDJ8MPOAspV9zyGumXyEWCbToFOAVekrOPzxu1gGBpB4ye5-eWKno-snumbddKJPw1Q4Zs9xDq3YT6VmOimYU7STv0BomCUfwy6shrmS85yZPAQD4Ssa144EZPuM9o7M4Qjmv/s400/black+cushion+2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I knew just how to get one</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for $0!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Repurposing is one of my favourite things to do!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And my Mother in Law, who loves to sew, is visiting!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I took that old French Connection sweater out</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and asked her how we could turn it into a cushion.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also happened to have an extra cushion insert</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
which was a perfect fit.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdatjtbl7V_BIYGi7o6xh-BjCxFp7UFIp1cx2D8A1DvSQBPJK-LHGPNDNiqYQszai52HZFOhE5zrQl-Pi2uaVb69L9PEnGnmPJpFqkV0lFvMZf-JzTTR88QmEyT192d_VvdwkZaqO4GznS/s1600/black+cushion+6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdatjtbl7V_BIYGi7o6xh-BjCxFp7UFIp1cx2D8A1DvSQBPJK-LHGPNDNiqYQszai52HZFOhE5zrQl-Pi2uaVb69L9PEnGnmPJpFqkV0lFvMZf-JzTTR88QmEyT192d_VvdwkZaqO4GznS/s640/black+cushion+6.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She is amazing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She actually managed to stitch the sweater around the cushion</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
keeping the sweater completely intact!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Which means,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
if I ever wanted to</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I could unstitch it and wear it again?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Handy Hint: I used a razor and gently shaved off all the lint balls to make it look like new.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now I have a</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
P.S.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I made this bedhead ages ago.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I originally picked up a large art work, from the side of the road, only for the amazing frame it had.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I nearly discarded the artwork inside but instead.....</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I covered the large canvas with a layer of batting to add some cushioning.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Then I staple gunned some lovely thick linen upholstery fabric to it.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I thought it look a little bit plain,</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
so I stitched 3 subtle little grey x's in the middle.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Then I attached it to the wall with 3M velcro strips.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The other cushions are made out of linen tea towels to match.</div>

I needed some new fabric to match the paintings I recently did for my living room. I love linen and hunted everywhere for something really nice, but everything was way over $100 a meter. So I bought this little carving and made my own in the exact colour I needed.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIt278y1BFmRDHTLofQCga3SzWdJGPqB0u2bzn2jP8b9u5FFiCYCPTKl_057-DEiMA-YRzdwAriGofeH1EQf6zJN2QaDW4tyEKm1lvdUnblYRudKqn7zDaidDscNCvNHr_-ZcK8wmZMjU/s1600/IMG_2509.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIt278y1BFmRDHTLofQCga3SzWdJGPqB0u2bzn2jP8b9u5FFiCYCPTKl_057-DEiMA-YRzdwAriGofeH1EQf6zJN2QaDW4tyEKm1lvdUnblYRudKqn7zDaidDscNCvNHr_-ZcK8wmZMjU/s320/IMG_2509.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The owners also had ferns overgrowing the fish pond at the front of the house. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">They saw these plants as an absolute weed,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">but instead of just throwing them out...</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have been wearing some of my old gold chains lately and layering them, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but I wanted a pendant or two to go on the longer one. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I went looking for something only to be disappointed.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Gold and gem stones seem to be everywhere on Pinterest at the moment. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I wanted something with a bit of understated bling. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I stopped by the Swarovski store for the very first time. I was impressed with some of their designs but they didn't have a pendant like I wanted for individual sale.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
However, they did inspire me to make my own.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I found these beautifully cut crystals that reminded me more of gems stones. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They were just what I was looking for.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I wanted to make a pendant that was versatile</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so I decided to make my own stackable ones.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I made individual pendants</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
in different lengths and colours</div>

that could be easily mixed and matched.</div>
