Title: OMG I WON
Post by: BEG on December 05, 2012, 03:30:08 PM
 :panic:

I went to Kohls to take something back and I couldn't resist their murcury glass stuff so I bought a bunch of candle holders, votives, a bowel and other things and 4 tops for myself.  The total was $260 dollars (after their sale price and with my 20% extra off coupon). I was walking out the store and the manager stopped me and asked me if I was a kohls employee (at first I thought I was in trouble), if I was a resident of the US etc., then she told me I was their contest winner of the day and Kolhs would pick up the tab. I about fainted.

 :panic:

Here is a link to their giveaway: Kohls (http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStore/ourbrands/dreamreceipts.jsp?icid=hpme|mes1)

I have a lot of mercury glass ( I've even made some), but I sure don't have a mercury glass bowel.   :whistling:

Really small picture hat was in the Christmas stuff but I'm going to hang it on the wall.  Maybe in the half bath or in the study.

Can you believe this fake plant plant was originally $39.99. It was 70% off plus my 20% off then it ended up being free.  :panic:

I'm trying to arrange my centerpiece for my table. I have some burlap you see here in the back of everything that I'm thinking of making a table runner with. I also put a candle holder I've had (it's a christmas candle holder) just to visualize what a little greenery would look like. I'm probably not going to use it all the mercury glass on the table.

Don't pay attention to the stuff on top of the hutch. I sat it up there to get it out of the way and there it sits 6 months later. Also I need some brown tea lights, I just stuck what I had in them. Also x2, don't tell me to move the far left one, I noticed that after I took the pictures.  :p

I don't know if any of you noticed the christmas balls in my bounty pic but I tied sheer ribbon on them and put them in the bowl.

(http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y131/Foam_Kitty/image-33.jpg)

I lit the candles. Although it doesn't have the same effect as being lit at night.
