Shabby Candle Holders

JM Perez By JM Perez1 min read734 views

Last Wednesday I visited the Shabby Sisters Boutique, a Shabby Chic Shop here in the High Desert which I recently heard about. We’ve visited most Shabby Chic, Vintage/Antique, Primitive shops around here and it turned out that the Shabby Sisters have only been around for the past six months (which probably explains why I didn’t know about their existence until last week). It’s a lovely place, owned by three lovely women who enjoy singing.

The shop itself is small in size, but features gorgeous items you will love to pieces. Shabby Sisters Boutique carries Refinished/repainted, up-cycled and re-purposed furniture as well as hand crafted items.

While searching for my candle holders and some candles, I found this lovely Bird Candle above which I either bought from Pier 1 Imports or Cost Plus World Market a few years ago.

I am so excited for the weekend. There are a couple of events coming up. On Saturday, we will be taking the kids to The Home Depot® Kids Workshop and this time, the kids will be building Bird Feeders. These are free Do-It-Yourself Workshops which are available for adults/homeowners as well.

On Friday we’ll be attending the 29th Annual High Desert Home & Garden Show which will be held at the Victorville Fairgrounds on April 5, 6 and 7, 2013. We’ve heard great stories about the Home & Garden Show, but never found the time to attend. We already have our tickets which mean peace of mind.

Hesperia Civic Plaza Park: Lighted Tree

EPEngineer By EPEngineer1 min read987 views

We finally took a drive to the Hesperia Civic Plaza Park to see the Lighted Tree and all the fabulous decorations. Since we missed the Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony on November 29th due to the bad weather; I decided to surprise the family tonight by driving them there. It was beautiful scenery and the kids were thrilled to see so many lights and all the lighted animated decorations. We took some pictures as well as videos.

Here I am, at home, wrapped in the warmth of my walls and feeling grateful for life and to be able to spend another day with my beautiful family. It’s a little harder to appreciate the peace and tranquility during the work days.
