My favorite's that come from a church and can be used in a home..and "glitter"


Patricia Hassey (allard) since 1993,alway's concidered one of her "favorite's"..to be votive's..although 2 years prior to opening her annex..she was forced to "overload" her store..as her whse's were on "overload" also..so deciding of what to do..and the store..was still a residential/design/oddities store...thinking out of the box..and sometimes, not given all needed by church, or broken...coming incredibly easy to her..was incorporation of these items..into a home...some of the favorites..if not the biggest favorite was votive's..most votives, had removable cross's which helped..off or on..clients preference..a votive missing a base..could have a mirror underneath..or marble..,a "heart" shaped bronze votive...could really be placed anywhere..and the glass...(although recommending period piece glass only) could be color changed..for different season's, holidays,,,and then the garden..cross on or or off..left alone..or she would paint an distress..the cups could hold "citrenella" tea lights....having a home in Georgetown..with english gardens in the back..always full of many rose bush's..to crape myrtal..to anything..best was old iron..mixed with a votive just sitting at the side of the table..lite..was not only beautiful..but also..kept the buggies away...after setting her backyard..she always took photo's..placed near her desk.."a new idea"..Patricia always used her home as her "pallet"..of integrating odd peices..into new furnishings..it worked..so successful..2 days both store/annex...
