Kurrency Chandeliers by Stuart Karten Design

Christmas is tomorrow and I'm already thinking about presents. This year, I'll be celebrating the holiday without my family. I was supposed to fly in to Chicago last weekend to celebrate Hanukkah, but the weather prevented that excursion :-( Oh well. A nice, relaxing day of movies and yummy food sounds good to me!

When it comes to my ideal holiday gift...gift certificates are the way to go! Better yet - give me cash! I know, I know. People always complain about how impersonal a gift certificate is. Frankly, I'd rather choose something that I actually want then risk having to go wait in a returns/exchanges line at the department store.

Speaking of cash, these conceptual chandeliers by Stuart Karten Design are so money - literally! The Kurrency collection of Chandeliers come in a variety of currencies - from dollars to euros to pesos. As cool as these are, I don't advise putting up one of these babies during a financial crisis. You'd be better off sticking with your old brass chandelier.

Happy Holidays!! And thank you so much for your wonderful comments Jamie:)

The "Light" Photo was actually one of those wonderful spur of the moment photographs. I was driving home and that wonderful light of the day with the sun setting was available to me, and the lights of the parking light literally just turning on, I stopped the car and grabbed my camera. The best part was that the birds just came a few moments after that. Perfect:)

I am sorry you couldn't make it to Chicago, but I hope you enjoy your Holiday either way.
