Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!!! - Page 3

These are two Thomas Kinkade ornaments. They are from the Bradford Exchange!

There is a hole in the back of them that you place over a light on the tree and it lights up the bulb. Thought you would like these for sure Sherry!

~JaNan

The Hollyberry Lady · 01-29-2011, 08:46 AM

Cool JaNan, you have something from Bradford's!!!

Those are really quite nice.

: )

The Hollyberry Lady · 02-11-2011, 11:25 PM

Check out how cool this is JaNan! I got it today at the garden center. It's called a crackle globe and it's a solar powered LED light...

The cool thing about it is that it has 2 settings...one is a clear white light setting, and the other is a spectra setting where the globe changes many colors!

Check out the crackle marks it leaves on the wall...

It's a stake for the garden but I have it in a pot in my window. It charges in sun or shade.

: )

The Hollyberry Lady · 02-13-2011, 12:38 AM

Yeah, the color changing mode is way too cool...

It turns pink, red, green, and yellow also.

: )

Jananas Bananas · 02-13-2011, 12:39 AM

Too COOL! The crackle glass is really a stunning effect! You know I love lights and solar are some of my very favorites! I would love to have a solar powered home. I would really like to have an electricity generating windmill too. It is very windy here and I think it would be plenty for my house and probably several others. My dream is to be totally off the grid someday.

I have a lot of solar lights outside trimming the front yard and the patio area in the backyard. You know a lot of people just throw solar lights away when they stop working? All you have to do is change the rechargeable battery and they work just fine again? Or even clean them - sometimes being outside they get some corrosion on the connector tips and that prevents them from charging.

My prettiest ones are cobalt blue. They surround my cobalt blue gazing ball.

The Hollyberry Lady · 02-13-2011, 12:43 AM

Totally gorgeous, JaNan! I love them!

They really brighten up the garden, don't they?

Thanks about my new crackle globe. I sure am enjoying it.

: )

Jananas Bananas · 02-13-2011, 12:52 AM

That's what I was posting when it crashed this morning. All those things sticking up are solar lights.

I really like the idea that yours has a changing color mode. That has got to be almost hypnotizing to watch.

I saw they have them in different colors now. I think they would be very pretty at Christmas (though I love lights any time). But they sure wouldn't double the electric bill that way. ~J

The Hollyberry Lady · 02-14-2011, 09:22 AM

I put an LED color changing light in front of one of my snowflakes in my window...

: )

The Hollyberry Lady · 02-14-2011, 06:04 PM

Ok JaNan, I picked up those other LED solar garden lights today that I was telling you I wanted. I got them today because they only had a few left and I knew they'd be gone fast. These are super special...

The box came with two solar mosaic glass globe lanterns that have an LED color changing light inside too, so it's nothing but a swirl of colors everywhere! I've never seen any solar light quite like it. They're new this year. Here's one of the pair...

They weren't even expensive...20 bucks for two!

They're already both in my windows. They're just stunning and even in the daytime the colors of the mosaic pattern is so pretty! I'll take a shot tonight when they come on...

: )

Jananas Bananas · 02-15-2011, 09:38 PM

Sherry, great minds think alike! I bought 10 new solar lights yesterday when I was out getting DH's Valentine's stuff. They are just the plain small black ones, but I love them. I just have to figure out where I am going to put them. All mine go outside.

I must say that mosaic one is the most beautiful I have ever seen - no lie! I LOVE it. That thing is too pretty to go outside that's for darn sure! Be sure and post a picture of it lit for me when you have a chance. Gorgeous!

~JaNan

The Hollyberry Lady · 02-15-2011, 10:17 PM

Thanks JaNan!

I totally believe you because that's exactly what I thought when I saw them...is that they were the nicest I'd seen yet. It's because they're new ths season but next year they'll come out with ones even nicer, no doubt.

I do love them though and will show one lit tonight. Gonna go take a little video so you can see the color changes. Hopefully the video will come out accurate to how the really look...

Congrats on getting some new ones too. I like the plain ones also. I'd never put these ones outside here though...they'd be stolen within the hour!!!

I bought them for my window and for a housewarming present for my new apartment where I can put them outside. Not here though, no way.

I hate to admit it but I'm tempted to go buy two more so I'll have a set of four for my new place. I might pick them up when I'm out tomorrow...

I'll be back with a video shortly...

: )

The Hollyberry Lady · 02-16-2011, 08:57 AM

The videos are finally loaded this morning, JaNan. I thought the video with the light on shows more accurately how they look when the colors change, so I'll show it first...

YouTube - MOV02087

A little inaccurate because it's too dark but here's with the lights off...

YouTube - MOV02086

Gonna pick up 2 more today!

: )

The Hollyberry Lady · 02-17-2011, 02:19 AM

JaNan, here's part of my mom's old country roses "ruby celebration" Pink Chintz Royal Albert bone china set made in England 2001 Limited Edition...

See the ribbons on it? That's why it's called "celebration". My mom always uses this set for birthdays and celebrations of any kind.

Here too, is her old country roses Royal Albert bone china carriage clock made in England...

Here are b-day presents from my girlfriends. A girly cake, if I ever saw one...

A cute girly magnet too...

: )

The Hollyberry Lady · 02-17-2011, 01:02 PM

Here are 2 of the mosaic solar globes in my window...

Don't laugh because they're not outside!

They'd be stolen inside of 10 minutes flat if they were!

: )

Jananas Bananas · 02-18-2011, 08:09 AM

Your Mom's china is beautiful as well as her carriage clock, very girly girl!!! I love the new mosiac videos too. They turned out really well.

Here's a couple of quick shots of more gazing balls I have in the back yard. The green one is a mosaic, but no lights to it at all. And the ball with the fairy on top is the same way no lights, darn it - but they are pretty.

The stained glass butterfly is the top of a wind chime that has crystals on it. I couldn't get a good shot of the tinklings.

~J

The Hollyberry Lady · 02-18-2011, 11:42 AM

I really love that green one JaNan...that is so pretty!

Even in the daytime they're still beautiful without lights. I find them very cheering and happy looking. I sure appreciate you taking shots so I can see too. This is so fun.

: )

The Hollyberry Lady · 02-18-2011, 06:29 PM

Here are 4 Amythest crystal chunks from the Amythest caves in Nova Scotia...

My Birthstone!!!

: )

Jananas Bananas · 02-18-2011, 08:15 PM

Oh I love those too! I'll have to take some pictures of my Amethyst chunks. Here are a couple of shots I think I can add here.

This is a thermometer. It is liquid filled and it has numbers attached to floating balls and depending upon the temperature is how the numbers are arranged. I think it is really neat:

A couple of vintage necklaces:

~J

The Hollyberry Lady · 02-18-2011, 08:38 PM

Those necklaces are so beautiful, JaNan!

I think you did show your Amythest chunks and that's what made me post a shot too. Yours are lovely also.

Love that thermometer! That is so cool! Thanks for showing!

: )

The Hollyberry Lady · 02-19-2011, 10:26 AM

JaNan, I'm dying to tell you!

I'm giving you one of those colored mosaic LED garden globes! I bought the very last set they had and gave one globe to my mom.

So now I have an extra one, and thought of you! I'll send it in Spring with the other stuff, but hope this makes you happy! At least you'll have one, and it can be something to add to your pretty collecton.

: )
