Stars have always been popular but often they are child-like or very rustic Americana--neither of which I find very inspiring. I prefer stars to be whimsical and even a bit sophisticated. They should be glamorous and shimmery. Here are a few images that make me happy and tempt me to add stars and glitter to everything around me:
In honor of the upcoming movie musical version of Les Miserables I thought I would include the beautiful song "stars." There is no one who can sing this song like the one and only Philip Quast. I am not one to make comparisons between movie musical and Broadway performances because I think they are entirely different and comparisons are pointless (although I understand having a preference). Therefore, I am completely open minded concerning the new movie version.

Minus the moon thing I love this for a sophisticated kid's room. So pretty and sweet.
Magical and fun. Festive and simple.

This is the wallpaper I am DETERMINED to get for my powder-room re-do. This is no childish star pattern; even though it would also be great in a kid's room. I simply love it.

Wouldn't this make a beautiful backdrop for a children's photo shoot? Maybe for Christmas cards?

The lovely Leslie Caron all dressed up for the black and white party scene in "An American In Paris." This would be my Halloween costume this year if I had my way.

I really want this gorgeous necklace.
I did sweet little painted pumpkins decorated with stars this year. I was inspired by Cinderella so I decided to do silver and blue. All I used was acrylic paints: Plaid Glaze in "Jamaican Sea" and Martha Stewart Crafts in "Sterling." The paints covered very well and then instead of stenciling stars and painting them, I took a short cut and glued little silver stars on them. Yeah, I know I am cheating but, heck, I've got a lot going on right now.

LOVE decorating with stars....so ethereal and peaceful! Adore that Dior dress (hey that rhymes!!-LOL)! I love wrapping Christmas presents with the the little star garland instead of ribbon, too!
ReplyDeleteI have used star garlands for wrapping too Lizzie! It is so much prettier than curling ribbon (which I detest). I Adore the Dior as well (hehe). I am curious about the number of beads on it. Have a great day and thanks again for your great comments!
