What a fun day we had today! I drove my hubby to meet his best friend at their favorite breakfast shop, where they used to meet three times a week after their gym workouts. Steve waited outside for my hubby to arrive.
I drove home and awaited my husband's phone call to pick him up. They had a great time seeing each other, and it was thrilling for my hubby to get out of the house and talk baseball and football to someone who cares.
Then we went to our favorite lighting showroom where we found a chandelier for our new family room. An electrician will be here tomorrow to give us an estimate to put it together and hang it for us.
This will be our 7th crystal chandelier in our Connecticut home.
Do you have any crystal chandeliers? I'm just crazy about them.

Awww - I'm so glad your hubby is now well enough that he can go out - sounds like he enjoyed his time with a great friend. Wow, 7th chandelier! A chandelier probably wouldn't work in our small place . . . but there are so many really pretty ones out there!

. I know I've seen purple ones online, but I'm sure a chandelier is something you want to see in person before you actually buy

I do like the look of crystal chandeliers just not having to clean them. We have a very old-fashioned house so they would seem out of place here. Let's see a pic of the chandelier all hung up.

I don't have crystal chandeliers. I mostly have ceiling fans and a wrought iron one which I quite love. I am a Waterford fan but the dusting would drive me nuts lol. I am the cleaning lady!! So happy that hubs was able to enjoy some time with his friend.

LOVE them, own them no, because when you have rental houses they get repairs and you get plain stuff.

Wow! That's beautiful! We don't have crystal chandeliers; just some simple lights that are appropriate for our living room. We use LED lamps for other rooms.

Great to know you had a good time.No chandeliers here, they look very classy .
Their mention reminds me of the Alfred Hitchcock movie..Family plot where a jewel was hidden by sticking it on the chandelier

I'm glad to hear you husband had a great time with a wonderful friend while you were like a happy and willing chauffeur. I would love to see your new crystal chandelier. I have one crystal chandelier, the only one I got and I think this is more than 20 years old.

I don't have any chandlers but I also love the crystal ones, there was an antler one that I also really liked that I've seen before at some sort of show room type of deal. Glad you may be getting something else that you love.
