A BAD WEATHER DAY BUT SOME GREAT FINDS

We are FINALLY safe in a hotel in Dallas and all our kids are SAFE in SHREVEPORT, after a horrible weather day. Tornadoes were everywhere in Shreveport and Bossier and my son actually watched one pass over the car dealership he works for. He said they had at least 50,000 dollars in damage...A scary day to say the least. We were on the road most of the day and torrential rains were are constant companion. The kind where you cannot see the car in front of you. I was getting constant phone calls from home telling me new tornadoes were spotted every few minutes...so I am hoping tomorrow is a less eventful day.
BUT, I did manage to stop and purchase a few great finds for some of my houses. Some are still in the car so I will have to show you those pictures tomorrow night, but will give you a little eye candy and maybe it will spark a new idea for you.

Really look at this tree close and you will see the results of lots of different things, different textures and different shapes that all go into making a beautiful tree.

This is my FAVORITE RIBBON FIND of this year, expensive but absolutely BEAUTIFUL

These are a few things that I bought for myself.....unless I find a house that HAS to HAVE them!

This tree is FABULOUS and going to make a GREAT FOCAL POINT in SOME HOME. The picture does not really do it justice.

THIS beautiful gold wreath can be used as a wreath or as a centerpiece with a huge candle wedged down in the middle.....I bought the cutest Santa, but am too tired to get it out of the car....will post it tomorrow night.....
TIP
Walmart is putting out their Christmas things and have some GREAT ornaments. I stopped at a large Walmart coming into Dallas and found three different ones that will work on a tree I am in the planning stage of .. They were $2.00 and looked like $10 ornaments.....Of course, I bought everyone of them as I have a 12 ft tree that is changing colors this year. I will show you those tomorrow also....
Tomorrow is a full day at market and then a SATURDAY CANTON day...and it looks like the weather on Saturday should be PERFECT.
