my dining room
I found this chandelier at a thrift store recently for forty dollars. I just added a few crystals and the drippy candle sleeves. I love a good bargain like that. What about you?
Have a great weekend. I'll see you Monday, when I hope I can report that those cabinets are mine.

I never do bargains like that, haha! Looks absolutely great! :-)
Yes, I LOVE a bargain. In fact I just posted about mine this week too!! http://sherricassaradesigns.blogspot.com/2011/03/my-monday-to-do-list.html
I do hope you get your cabinets!!! xo Sherri
P.S. Happy weekend! ;)
Great job on the chandelier and great buy. I wish you luck on the cabinets and I hope you get them as inexpensively as your chandelier.
I just love these stores.....and auctions, good luck with the cabinets this weekend!
Your chandelier looks great with the chrystals you added...I like the contrasts in styles.
There's a big annual antique show in Stockholm this weekend....always a pleasure to visit.
My best,

some of the bargains in my home are my proudest moments (kidding of course), but i get it.
i really like the color of your drippy candles....they are good ones. that color is not easy to find.
have a great weekend.
Absolutely love a bargain. I ran across my little vintage crystal chandelier for $10 on craigslist...it had a broken arm which my lamp man replaced. It is soon to hang over the breakfast table in the new sunroom...see it here

Gorgeous! what a great deal. I got one similar on bay for $114, it had been in a mansion in New Orleans, pre Katrina, and I have seen ones like it for over $2000!!!
What a great find - beautiful!! In fact I love the entire vignette!!
Wow lucky you! Its gorgeous and there is nothing that makes a purchase any sweeter than having gotten it for a steal!
Donna...what a great find. Love how it looks in your room. Hope to see the cabinets next week.

It looks fab, it is amazing the difference that adding a few sparkly crystals makes :-)

LOVING this little peak into your fab dining room...not to mention the uber cool new header!
This is a great find !
I love everything about it!
And the cabinets are amazing and I can't wait until Monday to see if you get them!
I love this look! About 3 years ago I bid on an old one from the town's Doctors office that was once right here in my house!.!.I really felt like I needed to get them back but...
They got so high...there was no way my hubby would let me continue bidding!
I wish you mush success though!
Have a wonderful rest of the weekend!
Donna
Look at you go with the sparkles and drips...could it be more perfect? No, I don't think so! Well done...enjoy your weekend!
