Last week started off with the delivery of this wonderful enamel sign I won a while back from a giveaway hosted by Darlene at Fieldstone Hill.
It is made by Ramsign and is a work of art which is made to be used. It took several weeks to arrive once my order was placed but it was well worth the wait. Thanks Darlene!
The second delivery came about courtesy of Joan from For the Love of a House. She recently shared her source for real wax candle sleeve covers - Lumiere Candles. I honestly did not even know such a thing existed!
Since I am all about the details, I couldn’t wait to replace the plastic sleeves on my vintage light fixtures in the dining room and living room with the real thing.
The funny thing was, I was in such a rush to order the candle sleeves I ordered six twelve inch sleeves instead of the twelve six inch sleeve I needed. Lucky for me, Lumiere Candles’ customer service is incredible. I left a message about my mistake and received a phone call back almost immediately telling me what I need to do to make an exchange.
My new beeswax candle sleeve covers really do make a difference in the way the chandeliers look and I highly recommend them for anyone who loves authenticity.
The third package I received this past week was a lovely surprise. I recently featured Jenni from Dear Lillie as the September RDH blog of the month. During the post I mentioned how much I liked the silhouette shopping bag which was a new addition to the Dear Lillie Store. Well, a few days later I received one in the mail! It was such a lovely and unexpected gesture and I can’t thank Jenni enough.
Finally, I wanted to share a picture of the newest addition to our house with the red door – Abby!
She is a miniature Schnauzer puppy and came to live with us just this past Saturday. She may show up from time to time in some upcoming pictures so I thought I should introduce her to you.

All great additions! Especially Abby :-) We had a dog named Abby too. It's a great name for a feisty little character like your Abby will probably be too.
Abby is sooo cute! Congratulations on your new addition.
That puppy is soooo cute ...I can't stand it :)
Congrats on the new member! Adorable1
I love all of your new goodies...especially the puppy! Our new puppy Winston is 5 months old now. They really make your like exciting!
Love all the goodies you got this week...I can see why it was a good week for you! I didn't even know about the wax candle sleeves either until I read about it on the same blog. I definitely am going to get some, too.
Stacy, Thanks for the info on the candle sleeves. Until now I didn't know about these. Those enamel address signs were on houses all over Venice. I was the lucky winner of one last year. Abby is adorable and what a sweet addition to the family.
Hugs,
Sherry

At least your plastic sleeves didn't have the stickers on them like mine did, I love my new sleeves, and you are right the customer service is awesome!
How cute is your puppy? I love small dogs, they are so cuddly and loving.
I love little Abby, so cute! We have a mini schnauzer too and just love her. Enjoy your newest family member and I hope you post some more cute puppy pics on your blog.
