Chandelier Fun & Tree Planting

(before ), (during)

(after), (hole digging is hard work!)

When we first bought this house, I knew I loved the chandelier in the entry way, except for the "dripping gold" effect. So here we are, about to move to Vancouver, and I finally decided what to do to it. I took it down, hung it up in the garage and did a fun pewter effect to it. I painstakingly took off all of the crystals, cleaned them and re-hung them. While I was out having girl's night though, the chandelier fell down and all of the crystals fell off! I cried a bit, haha, but Sam was my hero and spent all afternoon yesterday fixing it and re-hanging it. We've now moved it into the dining room and bought a new light for the entry way. Also yesterday, we FINALLY bought a plant for that weird donut bush in the backyard, I hope the new renters enjoy it, ha. It's a Red Maple, I hope it looks as pretty in the summer as it does in the picture that came with it. So we leave to Vancouver a week from today! So weird!! We still have a lot to do but are very excited...and nervous. As long as I have my hubby and my puppy I'll be ok! xo
