Accessorized . . .

I added this glass glitter garland to my boring Ikea kitchen chandelier for the holidays. Believe me, the chandalier was oh, so grateful. Now instead of being plain Jane, she's like a fine lady in a fancy necklace.

All the other holiday decor has been put away, but for some reason, I can't seem to bring myself to remove the sparkle from this one spot. I think I might just revolt and leave it up until the Hubby makes a comment. He may not even notice since we're busy doing that thing we do at the beginning of the New Year - you know, dejunk every room, nook and cranny in the house for a fresh start.

Do you do this in January too? Get all crazy with the organizing? My new litmus test for should it stay or should it go is to ask the following two questions: Do I use it? Do I love it? If the answer is no to both, then it's outta here. If the answer is yes to either, then I clean it up and put it in it's proper place.

And so, since the answer is Yes, I sure do love my glass glitter garland on the chandalier, it stays! Happy day! Now on to the next room...

ps. I was so encouraged by all the comments yesterday about family mattering most. Please, if you haven't commented yet, go do it now so you can be entered in the January giveaway!
