New Reading Lamp Re Do

as I told you before my friend Sharon gave me this fabulous lamp for my birthday...well while in New York I found this amazing trim store....It was called M&J Trim on Broadway.....

The trim on the bottom of the lamp is a silk ribbon trim from Paris.....the moment I saw it I knew it would look fabulous on the new reading lamp......

I also found the beautiful ribbon roses..... I cut the dingle balls of the lamp...you will see the before picture below.....(I'm a not a dingle ball person)....I put the ribbon roses with some of the silk ribbon on the top of the lamp......

I hope you can see the amazing detail of the ribbon......

so romantic and I love my re do reading lamp.......

here is the before........

dingle balls gone and replaced with beautiful trim and ribbon.....

"Tavern On The Green"

I was in New York a few years ago and didn't have a chance to eat here....well this time around this was a must for me.......this place was amazing !!!!!!!

The room we ate in was called the Crystal Room...it was like a huge green house......with beautiful chandeliers....beautiful plants and a amazing ceiling.....

the detail in the ceiling was just fabulous.......

this was taken on our way to the Crystal room.....

another little surprise in the hallway!!!!!!!!!

and another !!!!!!!

this arrangement was in one of the other dining rooms......
I had the salmon and it was fantastic......(forgot to take a picture of the food...I guess I must have been hungry)

THEATER

We saw two plays while in New York...

there is nothing like going to the theater.....

The first play we saw was Avenue Q....I have wanted to see this since the last time we were there...I missed it in San Francisco so I was so happy to see it while in NEW York...

it was so darn cute.....I loved it......

The second play we saw was "HAIR"
It was fantastic....it was so my era....love the music the clothes the songs ....
I could see it over and over again........

"TIME SQUARE"

Well what can I say about Time Square......after the plays that week we walked a block to Time Square....the lights the people the feeling the amazing craziness......I loved it !!!!!!!

Now about the Yellow Cabs....there are hundreds...thousands of Yellow Cabs...they are everywhere...all you can see at times is a sea of Yellow Cabs.......

I say bye for now...but for sure I will be back....I love New York!!!!!!!

Have a wonderful week....
