“STILL COOL”!

This month’s issue of Martha Stewart Living Magazine contained a little surprize for me:

Iitalla #2

In the 1980’s I became interested in Finnish glass, mainly because my daughter was collecting pieces for her upcoming marriage.

I fell in love with these icy-looking candleholders (Iitalla), and have used them for many years. They are on my console table as part of Christmas decor…. (still need to get some new candles for them!)

I also have a few other pieces, including the vase below:

I am happy to see that someone else thinks they are still cool!

Very pretty candle holders. I think my mother had a similar one but I'm not sure what happened to it. Some classics never go out of style!

Decorating for Thanksgiving 2020

 Our Canadian Thanksgiving is in one week. Due to COVID, we won't be having a Thanksgiving family dinner this year, but I did some decorating anyway. This Thanksgiving will be different in another way also, as one of our Grandsons is getting married during the same weekend. Due to our Provincial rules, they are only allowed 10 guests The wedding will be held in his parents' back yard so another 10 of us will be seated in the yard next door to see the ceremony.+ It has been almost 2 years since I  last posted. Sometimes life events get in the way!
