Dispela Antiques

Now I know where to go if ever I need antique lighting.  I was drawn by the lamps and lighting in the window from the 70s and the chairs that lined the outside of the stores which also were from the 70's.  But when I went inside to take a look the amount of lighting hardware in the store clearly overshadowed a great deal, anything else that was being sold.  On the floor, downstairs and upstairs, were tables, cabinets and chairs and on those tables, cabinets and chairs were a sea of lamps and wall sconces.  The walls which you could barely make out were lined with wall mounted lights, electric candelabra lighting, and mini chandeliers.   On the ceiling which you could also barely make out were hanging with chandeliers large and small.  And needless to say, everything was an antique.

In the back of the store there was a section much resembled a cave with low hanging chandeliers

Wallpaper

Wallpaper is a fun way to go when being creative and going all-out on your interior decor.  It doesn't need to cover all walls in a room but can be used simply to create an accent wall,  good for those who wish to 'try it' first, afraid to commit or on a budget.  Below are a few pics to wet your appetite.

Luxury Yachts

As of late I've been thinking about vacationing, some time to get away... say, "a year"?  What better way to do it than sail around the world in a luxury yacht that could meet your every need, that is if you can afford it.  I've heard many a times from various persons that owning a yacht is quite expensive and is considered an un-needed expense and for a time I did agree with them and perhaps I still do, but after taking  a look at these pics I decided that un-needed or not who wouldn't want this?  Just look below.
