Star Light, Star Bright, First Star I See Tonight

** Remember my 1 yr. Blogiversary is coming up Thursday. Be sure to leave a comment for a chance to win a few goodies from me. Winner will be announced Thursday evening!**

Do you ever wish upon a star when you want something REALLY REALLY bad? I have been known to do this on more than one ocassion.

As most of you know, I have a passion for vintage leaded glass windows & antique mirrors, which I also sell here on eBay. I honestly believe I practice great restraint in letting MOST of them go. (DH would say otherwise!) You know, one must eat, pay taxes, etc., & I always tell myself they are going to great new homes, but still.......
The above leaded glass window is one that I could NOT resist. We purchased several from the same residence, so I kept one that was not in as pristene condition, or so I told DH.

Well, now I am having a mighty strong hankering (a deep South term) for an antique leaded glass DOOR for our master bedroom. Never mind that we have a newer house, & DH says it won't fit, won't look right, will be too much work, yada yada yada. So as I type this he has gone to look at several doors that we found to take measurements again, & see if he can get the price within our range! Took the camera with him, so I'm sitting here fidgeting & decided that I would show you some of the ones that got away.....

The following are some I let go. Try humming or if you can sing like Julio Iglesias, "To All the Windows I've Loved Before"


Oh, how I pined for this one......
And this one, too





v Should have kept these, too! v






Now after giving up all the above items, don't you think I deserve something like this? No, I don't even want one nearly this fancy. In fact the one I'm hoping for is mainly clear leaded glass with just a bit of glass color. And I told DH I don't care what color the door is because I'll be painting it white & roughing it up a bit any ways.So, dear girlfriends, keep your fingers crossed for me. Maybe I'll have good news to report back soon. Meanwhile, I'm off to find a shooting star to wish upon!

Hugs,
