New Candle-liers...

I made 2 'candle-liers' from a tomato cage, some chicken wire, canning jars, re-cycled crystal and some scrap cotton ribbon...
 I cut the tomato cage and folded over the legs...
 The smaller candle-lier (below) was just the last ring and legs of the cage.  I found some scrap small gauge chicken wire in our scrap pile...and the crystals came from a junked out old brass chandelier..
I hung a small mason jar in the top candle-liere and a I used a small baby food jar for the 2nd (green) candle-liere...I put little tea light candles in the jars.. so very cute... it sparkles ever so cute in the sunlight... and in the evening, when the candles are lit,, super sweet.
Hmmm, now what shall I create????

Question...

What does this have to do with trailers and camping,,, you are probably wondering...
Well,,, this is a photo of 2 of my dearest Glamping Sisters... Yes, when we get together with or without our trailers... it's non-stop fun, giggles and silliness!

This picture was taken in Sept 2012, on the Bitterroot mountains, in Idaho....
We spent the days on horseback, crossing trails and streams,,,, and loved every minute of it!
The whole trip was coordinated by 'TripleO Outfitters" of Idaho...  
Rode all day, bathed by the stream in uber cold water, ate Dutch Oven dinners and breakfasts and sat around the campfires at night....  Best Pack Trip EVER!
(L  to  R)  me, Juli and Patty.

A Glamping I Want to Go... in 21 more days...

My next Sisters on the Fly glamping trip is May 29th -June 1st... It will be at El Portal at the base of Yosemite.. I can hardly wait...
But in the mean time, I fill my waiting days with shopping for the perfect junk for my trailers.,,, as if I needed more junk stuff! lol!
I am going to Girl Camp (in Idaho) in July and the Theme for that glamping trip is "Oscar Night".. I have been on the prowl for the perfect 'Oscar Actress Outfit'... I found a mink stole a while back and this past weekend I found the perfect gloves (and glove hangers) ..  you just never know what you will find at a yard sale...
 I love these velvety long gloves... uber sweet!
 I have a set of plastic glove hangers,,, but I have never seen metal ones..
 Then I spotted a 'lunch box'... or so I thought... until I opened it...
 LOL! How perfect is this.... "Liquid Lunch' in a tin lunch box?  I have several ideas for decorating the outside of the 'Lunch Box'... And I will keep my eyes open for little 'sample' size jars of olives and pearl onions to put in the two vacant holes in the foam... I know World Market sells sample size goodies, so maybe I will get lucky.
 Then yesterday while at the "$1.00 Store" I spotted these!  OMGeepers! how fun are these?
 I bought a handful.... to use for an up coming "Girls Fire Pit Spa Nite" that I am hosting...
"Sippy" wine cups... no more spilling or broken glass... Perfect for outside use!
I have way to much fun when I go shopping! lol!
