DECORATING ON THE PRAIRIE: $5 Chandy


DECORATING ON THE PRAIRIE 

$5.oo  CHANDY
At a THRIFY PLACE 
getting snowed on and needing repairs.

She came home with us.
Husband took her completely apart, 
repaired her, put her back together, polished her,
and installed her.
Turned out nice.
He did a SUPER JOB!


~WILLIAMSBURG CHANDELIER~











........isn't that  just like God to take our brokenness, clean us up and help us to shine?













MUSICAL CHANDIES........Long story short..........well not really.  A lot of shuffling has gone on here at Home Haven.

VINTAGE Dining Room Chandy was taken down and installed in the smallest bedroom that is being remodeled and worked on. 



Williamsburg Chandy took her place in the Dining room.  Delighted to find a Swarovski Crystal Chandelier at a super price for our SWEETHEART VALENTINE's Gift.  
Sooooooo...
Hubby took Williamburg Chandy down.  
Assembled and Installed Crystal Chandy in Dining Room.

Making one's living space a Home into a Haven takes people, prayer and time.

Prayin'



Beloved, 
I take PRAYER REQUEST and take them to the THRONE ROOM OF GOD 
that HIS children are allowed to enter when Jesus is one's Personal Saviour.
Truly the LORD Jesus is the son of God 
and part of the Holy Trinity.

Holy, Holy, Holy
LORD God ALMIGHTY.
In you I put my trust.

There is no name higher than the Name of Jesus. 
I pray in Jesus Name.

I will not publish your personal prayer request.
It will be deleted from the message you send me 
after I lift you up in prayer.

May your week-end be blessed.
Sincerely Yours,
~Deanna~

a sign of the times


~Kansas Sky In Winter~



So many signs around us.  Know what I mean?


Still...I thought it was rude and inconsiderate 
to name call my husband and me 
when we were walking Main Street 
of Paxico, Kansas this past Sunday.
hehehehehe




GRINS....just 'cause we're in our 50s are we considered ANTIQUES???
Schutt yo mouth!  

I'd rather be known as VINTAGE or well seasoned.





Sunday, we ventured over to Paxico,
but found the store we were going to visit  CLOSED.

That's just the way the cookie crumbles.
We still had a pleasant day.


Speaking of signs of the time....



We saw a few.












Our Sunday afternoon outing was wonderful with refreshing weather.
Getting out of the house is good medicine for us 
and my
Husband is a sweetheart.









He bought me some Anchor Hocking Boopie Iced Tea Glasses made between the 1950s through 1970s.  





























Hubby took this picture by the railroad track and I liked the subtle colors in it. 
Weathered browns with grey sky.


Hoping to have a great day.
God Bless you and thanks for stopping by!

DECORATING

I knew a very frugal Lady named Edith that shared with me a excellent guideline for decorating. She said with ease, "If your room has clean ceilings, floors, and walls, and the windows have nice curtains, you'll have an attractive room."



John 3:7

“Marvel not that I said unto thee,

Ye must be born again.”

King James Version (KJV)

PSALM 118:17

I shall not die,
but live, and declare
the works of the Lord.

PROVERBS 24:3-4

By wisdom
a house is built,
and through understanding

it is established;
through
knowledge

its rooms are filled with rare

and beautiful treasures.

As long as I live, I will have to continually submit to God's plan for my life. You will be blessed because you turned your life over to God. Be confessing how good God is and tell Him you agree with who He says He is. BELIEVE and watch miracles happen. Be not afraid. ~Deanna

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS
SELECTING THE CORRECT SIZE CHANDY TO USE IN A ROOM MADE EASY. FORMULA MEASUREMENTS: Measure the room's height and width. Add together the numbers. Example: 8' x 10' room is 8 plus 10= 18" Use a 18" wide chandy. OR Take width of room calculating 2" for every foot. Example: 15' wide room. Take 15 times 2 = 30. Room needs 30" wide chandy. Standard distance between the bottom of the chandelier to the top of the table is 30 inches. When hanging the chandelier, make sure to hang it at the proper height. The bottom of a chandelier over a dining table or kitchen island should hang 30 to 32 inches above the top of the table or island. Most rooms call for at least 7 feet of space between the bottom of the chandelier and the floor.

WISHES

NO MATTER HOW BADLY YOU WISH with all your might that the something devastating that happened in your life hadn't happened and want so badly to go back in time to prevent it from happening...it isn't humanly possible to do this. You can't change the fact that it happened. IT DID. But JESUS can change the MEANING of what happened to you and give you PEACE. He can show you the way in which you are to go. God richly BLESS you. ~Deanna
