What Do You See

Yesterday, my husband and i went to the good will store nearby us cause i was in the mood for some goodies. We went in and i promised him we were not gonna stay there more than 5 min *he hates staring for hours at smth that he truly just doesn't see it*... well blame me for not being decided over what to choose between one blue fun eclectic tea pot and a white modern one.. i went back and forth with my decision.. i even went on with the craziness and i started combining these tea pots with different fabrics i found in the store, different plates and all kinds of layers .. i was kinda creating an impromptu table arrangement right there in the store.. and while i was at it i didn't even realize how many people were staring at me like i was on crazy pills or something.. when my husband realized that, he came to me and said "honey, we need to make a decision fast".. and i was like come on, gimme some more time.. but when i looked at the cash register.. i knew what he was talking about.. and i was so ashamed.. i put everything back to their place.. stood there in a corner debating over which tea pot i like more.. couldn't decide after half an hour spent there, and eventually i ended up with these babies:



I know they are cute green vintage shots, but i saw something else in them... i thought of them like maybe they can become some sort of candle holders.. do you see it too now??? i hope so , 'cause i tried explaining an imaginary table arrangement with these two cuties as the main piece to my husband and he was still looking at me like.. "yeah honey, it sounds cute".. haha poor guy:) :)

Anyway.. what do you guys think?? Can my weird tastes become a nice chic reality.. i mean would these shots look nice and fab with some white tall skinny candles in it on a simple yet romantic table set?? DO you guys see what i see in these two?? Or if not, what other purposes would you use them for??? What do you see when you look at them? Pwease do share your thoughts!!!

Glass Love

Well i don't know how about you guys, but when it comes to glass and white ceramic i go 'goo goo' :) I always loved the chic pure look that simple ceramic and simple clear glass gives to any picture, and for this reason every time i find an item that is made of these materials i instantly fall in love with it!

That is what happened to me today. I was out in town with my husband, we were doing grocery shopping and as always we walked to the grocery market, just to maintain our physical condition:P(NOT.. actually our car is in service right now so we are kinda forced to do that.. but no worries soon this will change..hopefully:) anyway we were walking to the store and mistakenly(or not) my favorite thrift store is right in or way. I just asked the husband to get in , just for a peek.. "pleaaaaase!!".. and he endured to make me happy:D

we got in .. and i was oooooooooooo stunned.. i immediately fell in love with this little fellow...



The husband couldn't resist my childish look, so he bought it for me.. only 1.50$.. A steal i tell you:D And if you wonder why these greens are showing off in my 'new' glass vase, it's because of this:



Pretty nice right? I find the pink tulips so pure and sensible and elegant.. and i couldn't resist not stealing a bunch :)(actually we payed for them but is a figure of speech:P but however the husband always buys me some fresh ones every week or two, cause he knows i love them..so i was covered with that one anyway.. oh and plus they are not that expensive... 2$ for a 10 pieces bouquet.. i spread them around the house in different vases and i get a fresh , chic, sophisticated look for the whole week.. we both enjoy it ..so everybody HAPPY:)
Aren't they look gorge' in my 'new' glass vase? Do you guys have any specific materials that make you go crazy every time you see an item made of them? If so, do tell!!!
