I Spy

I came across this image on Gretchen Opgenorth's blog where she profiled a 1970's book titled, "All About Decorating." And there, on those brown walls, were my sconces right down to the curved wire scrolling at the top! Small world. Those ones appear to have candles which makes me wonder if a previous owner of my sconces had them electrified.
Hope you have a great weekend. Michele

    I just love when that happens! Of late I've seen my mother's sunburst wall clock everywhere, it was from the 60's and 70's, everything old is new again!

    Love yours!
