Fall Autumn Halloween Home Decorating Decor

Fall Autumn Halloween Home Decorating Decor with LilacsNDreams!

Hello, and happy you dropped by. Can you feel it? Are you ready for it? Seasons are changing, and we have some holidays to celebrate too. Are you one that decorates for Halloween, then Fall, and then Thanksgiving all separately? Maybe you tie in Halloween with Fall, and Autumn then do Thanksgiving? Everyone has their own way, or tradition of preparing your homes for the season and holidays.

Right now I have a mess as you can see. Trying to gather things together from storage to see what I have for this season, and holidays. Also, the son and I went shopping today for Halloween decorations for the porch. He loves holidays, been almost 8 years since he celebrated Halloween at home which he enjoys. So, today he had fun. 

Ok, back to our decorating. For us in our home I will decorate for Halloween, and also for Autumn and Fall too. One advantage is a lot of the pumpkins I have can be used for the season, and holidays too. Outside will mostly be Halloween which we like to have fun with. Inside the home will be more fall decor with some Halloween shared in with it too. 

This last picture shows the pumpkin I made last year using 3 splatter screens, some spray paint, June rope, ribbon, and leaves. I just got my supplies together to make my fall tree with items from Dollar Tree. I hope to have that completed to show you next time you visit. 

Hope everyone is enjoying the change of season. It’s been great weather here, but did cool off today. I know it’s suppose to, but I still like comfortable weather that is not too hot, and not too cold.

Christmas is my favorite time of year along with fall festivities too. Below you will see an item I just listed at Etsy for some Christmas wall decor. This is light weight, simple, but oh so cute! I united some plastic candy canes, I added an ornament in the center of this with the word JOY on it, I added little red and green bows in the center of the attached candy canes, and then I attached some red and green ribbon I braided to hang this with.

Glass Candle Candy Snack Dish Pedestal Stand Home Decor

Glass Candle Bowl Dish Stand Candy Dish Jewelry Dish Snack Dish Bowl Pedestal Stand Home Decor Centerpiece Table Decor by LilacsNDreams.

I repurposed, restyled, and upcycled this gorgeous glass stand by using 3 pieces of glass. I united them using an industrial adhesive. I used a glass candle holder along with 2 glass snack dishes to make this pedestal stand. All pieces have a very clean shine, and show very very minimal signs of use, if any. I am not seeing, or feeling any knicks, chips, cracks, etc.

There are Many Ways to Use These Pedestal Stands:

~ Can be used for all types of events, and parties. Wedding, Anniversary, Birthday, Display in a Shoppe or Cafe, Special Occasions, Office Supplies, Catch all for everything, etc.

~ Great for displaying candles, candies, nuts, mints, pastries, truffles, etc

~ Unique home decor center piece, table decor, candle holder, some succulent plants, etc

~ Add a little glass cloche with it

~ Add some seasonal decor, some of your favorite things, knick knacks, etc

Many versatile uses to consider, scatter around the home for use, and I think you’ve got the idea. Another unique feature with some of the stands is that you can flip them over to use in a more single simpler way. This will depend on the base that the stand has.

MEASUREMENTS:

    About ~

6 1/8” tall
5 6/8” diameter
5 1/4” wide base foot

Poshmark Sale With New Reversible Purse Bag at LilacsNDreams

Poshmark Sale With New Reversible Purse Bag at LilacsNDreams. 

Welcome everyone! I was so excited Saturday night to get notice of a sale with Poshmark! I received it later that night, was out for the night with family, and knew Sunday I would prepare everything for shipment Monday morning.

I woke Sunday morning, filled out what I needed to with Poshmark, and they then sent me my shipping label to use. If it was over 5 pounds for shipping you had instructions what to do then. I was planning on what box to use, checked printer for paper, located some tissue paper to use, got my shipping tape out, and cleared spot on table to prepare this shipment. Then, I went to my designated Sale Items area to retrieve this purse. 

I looked, looked, looked in containers, looked in boxes, moved things, and I just could not find it! See since our house has been getting remodeled things have been moved to make room for that, and everything was designated to different areas in order to find them when needed. Course no one remembers this, has no clue where it could be, and you have me being frustrated and upset at not finding this. 

So, I did something I have honestly never done in the years I’ve been selling on line. I had to cancel this order. I did that process with Poshmark. Then, I wanted to notify the customer myself about this cancellation, and the reason for it. I felt horrid doing this to her, my first sale at Poshmark, and just was not happy with this situation. 

I try to put myself into that situation as a customer, and try the best I can to communicate and be honest with them. I know it’s over, and done with now. But, I still feel horrible. Also, I have not found this particular bag, and a Coach purse I had listed in which I stopped that listing too. 

So, I had a great weekend until this sale I dealt with at Poshmark. I hope to get more things posted there, and some things I will sell through Facebook Marketplace. If you see anything of interest I can sell from here too. I would invoice you, and I use PayPal too. Just drop me a line at lilacsndreams@gmail.com.

Thanks for visiting at LilacsNDreams! Appreciate your visit, and any comments that you would like to share too. Take care till the next time everyone. Toodles. . . 

14KT Yellow Gold Diamond Wedding Engagement Cocktail Ring

14KT Yellow Gold Diamond Wedding Engagement Cocktail Ring 

This diamond ring has a unique design offered by LilacsNDreams. 

 This private estate sale ring offers a center Marquise diamond with 2 rows of diamonds that line the split shoulders. This 14kt yellow gold ring has split shank shoulders giving this ring a unique design.

The center stone is a 5/8 carat Marquise diamond with VS2 clarity, and G color. On each side of this Marquise are 4  .03 carat round diamonds that have the same color, and clarity as the center diamond. These 8 diamonds are 1/4 carat total weight. Asking price is $2300

The pictures do not do this ring justice showing the bling, and beauty of the ring. Enclosed will be an appraisal for the ring showing it’s value to be $4800. The appraisal was done by a local credited jeweler.

Not completely sure of the size. I’m estimating the ring size to be about a 6 with comparison to another ring I have of this size.

Ring is in very good used condition with very minor markings consistent to its age. If you have any questions, or wish to see more pictures please contact me at lilacsndreams@gmail.com. I would be happy to assist you.

Payment will be made with PayPal.

Thank you for your time, and visiting with LilacsNDreams. I look  forward to seeing you again. Take care till the next time you visit.

14KT Yellow Gold Diamond Engagement Wedding Anniversary Ring

LilacsNDreams is offering a 14KT Yellow Gold Diamond Engagement Wedding Anniversary Ring. This vintage diamond ring would also be great as a right hand ring, cocktail ring too. A unique estate ring that features a Marquise as the center stone. There are a row of diamonds on each side of this ring, and then a single diamond on each side of the rows too. The ring is in really good condition with some minor markings from the consistency of its age.

The center Marquise diamond is .57 ct with a VS2 clarity, and F color  5 round diamonds are on each side of the Marquise making a total of 10 brilliant diamonds .34 ct. These round diamonds are a VS1 clarity with a G color. Total of .91 cttw, and a 4.24 dwt. 2 appraisals come with this ring dated 1993, and 2011. Both with the same owner too. The last appraisal shows a value of $4500.
My asking price is $2250. That price includes the diamond ring you see pictured, shipping, insurance, and a signature delivery too.

Beautiful ring that is clean, has some clean bling with the stones, and is a size 8. Little buff, and polish would make the ring look like new again. This came from a private estate sale, and I have a ring box that will accompany this ring.

Please ask any questions you might have, or request more pictures if you need them. I would be happy to assist you.
