Faux Chandie

I saw a lady hang her vintage Christmas ornaments over her sink area for the Holidays... It was so glorious.. I could NOT stop thinking about it...SO that night I looked on line and found a few small blown glass items.. very inexpensive made in Turkey.. the next day I went on a hunt..I hit Hobby Lobby, Walmart, Dillards, T.jMAx.. and came home with a pretty good start.. I already had the flying pig, Goldfish, and Cobalt blue drop was hand made from a friend....I took small eye hooks or you culd use cup hooks. and sprayed them white so they would blend in with the ceiling better..I used fishing line to hang them..Over the past year...  look for pretties whenever I shop..and last Jan. I got a BUNCH on clearance at Tuesday Mornings, , and they were from Egypt... at 70% off.. I loaded my cart with as many different ones as I could score..I found the Murano glass flower at Homegoods, along with some other great ones this fall at BeallsFlorida..Notice the hot pink martini glass I attached a hanger with E6000 and hung it upside down... It makes me happy to see them sparkle above our little dining area.. The are easy to dust using a 2 1/2 inch paint brush... I am searching again since it is time to find the Holiday decor out in the stores..
