Glimmer, Glamor, Glow and Glitter

Glimmer, Glamor, Glow and Glitter

Glow and glimmer, sheen and shimmer…the holidays are almost upon us…with their pressure, their joy, their longing, and their brilliance.

Stenciled  light switch covers, metallic  bathroom stripes, gilded stairway banisters, and golden ceilings created with layers of glaze are just a few of the unending treatments which can add shine, glitter and glamor to the space of the  built environment.

Dutch metal enhances a floret, and tinted wax a medallion…applications creating the illusion of precious metal are limitless.

Gilded furniture details spring to life against black, creating an elegant and festive air. Black tie optional, anyone?

       

Gold is not the only star…silver and copper have exciting roles to play for all ages, , both inside and out.

So…wish upon a star this holiday season…and, glow for it!

Pictogram II: Let There Be Light

Pictogram II:  Let There Be Light

Leaving the familiar and entering the journey can take many forms.

Sometimes the journey offers us a miracle.

Leaving home in the cold dark, I entered the airport as the light was beginning to show itself.

Upon entering the temple of SFO, a great  miracle happened.

A bright light appeared, and began to rise, getting  bigger and brighter.

Burning its way through the darkness, there came the sun,

casting a brilliant reflection of its own light on the plane  opposite.

It  continued to rise like a prayer,

or voices raised in hymn of praise,

 For the miracle of Life, Hope, Joy, Renewal, Moving Forward…or just,  Moving!

GO!

Wishing You and Yours Peace and Blessings this Holy Day Season.

May You move forward into the uncharted adventure of your greatest Dreams, Hopes, Joys, and Loves.

Cheers!
