"the coolest store on the planet"

My husband was a good sport while going through shops in Millersburg, OH with me this morning.  This was MY KIND of place!  The first floor was filled with vintage furniture -- some of it embellished with colorful paint.    Pieces of original art decorated the wall & funky jewelry was displayed on the counters.  Upstairs was a vintage-clothes-lover's dreamland!

I couldn't take my eyes off this chandelier bedecked with beads and miscellaneous jewelry.  It hung on the second story ceiling and was visible from the first floor and as we walked up the old oak stairway.  I can't wait to see if I can create this whimsy on a couple of our chandeliers at home!

  1. What a fantastic shop! I love all the vibrant prints on that rail. Funnily enough I was thinking about transforming a dull brass chandelier with some vintage bling, thanks for sharing, I now have a plan! xxx

  3. Great chandelier! I have a couple of chandelier lamps--needing no embellishment! They were gifts from someone who thought they were a bit "too much" for their tastes. I love them! But I often do that with other furniture. I use my shawls for draping over curtain rods, mirrors,(nowhere like a lamp because of heat) and I use necklaces to drape over stuff too. I love a layered look in furnishings.

  4. Gary IS a good sport, just like Bob! Thank God we have these hubbys who "dance" with us :) That chandelier is something I definitlely admire and wish I had enough "lives" to try all kinds of styles. It would never "go" in my house...but so so clever!
