The Old and The New..:):)

The excitement continues at Crystal Grandeur as it was when I started it a year and eight months ago. Sixty eight posts, twenty five thousand plus page views, coming in contact with some of the blogging bigwigs and most importantly getting to know all the beautiful bloggers from the different parts of the world, all gave me a great sense of satisfaction and happiness. Blogging proved that there are no boundaries and that the world is small.

Taking to blogging with a loving heart, gave me a opportunity to showcase my passion and love for my subject to the outer world. Blogging continues to give birth to new ideas and helps me express my creativity in my interested field. I have become better with my photography, enjoy my writing and am happy in presenting my collectables in appreciable manner.

Thanks to all you wonderful ladies who take the time to stop by and appreciate my work or creativity through your lovely comments, which makes my day and means a lot to me.

This simple table scape of mine includes designed transparent glassware & is for an evening to enjoy.

Sometimes we stumble upon unexpected objects of interest at our home. I found a pair of vintage honey bottles with green tinge, which looked beautiful. I used it as a flower vase by wrapping a paper doily around it  to give a pretty look. Another bottle I used as a candle holder & filled it with small shells. Spreading dark green leaves around the bottles gave an old and new look to the table.

    Your clear crystal dishes are so beautiful and I love the setting in front of the bookcase. I especially love the candle shots and you did a great job on the vase and candleholder.

Shades of Green

This is September, and the month offers its own fresh start to many things. Here in India, it is the beginning of festivities and celebrations for the next few coming weeks. These are the days of showers too, and it is truly refreshing & soothing to see the plants and trees after every brief shower. The moist leaves give us an impression that they are happy and smiling and breathing a 'Thank You' for the fresh green look. I love the colour green and as we all know it is one of Mother Natures primary colours. The green stem is honoured and credited to hold every flower of different colours. That's awesome. Inspiration comes from every where and the colour green inspired me to do a scape, with the green touch. I collected the green ware from the racks and putting it together as a teascape was pleasing to the eyes like the happy greenery around us. Sometimes it is wonderful to have tea and treat ourselves amongst a small collection of green plants. M...

Coffee in the Bedroom

The bedroom, the place where we spend one-third of our life, is a special place indeed and it holds all the beautiful possibilities that we wake up to early in the morning. Enjoying coffee in bed along with reading the newspaper is something one looks forward to & it is a wonderful feeling after a hard days work too. Like many I love the smell and taste of coffee made from a Peculator, and it is also easy and quick to prepare coffee with. Having coffee in bed, along with breakfast on a Sunday morning makes you feel fresh, something that every heart would wish for. Presenting a coffee scape from my bedroom on an early Sunday morning & enjoy your cuppa. Please do visit Cusine Kathleen Please do visit A Delightsome LIfe
