Dona, I didn't know we had to have 3 entries. But I will hurry up and post 3 more pictures.
I love your photos. Every chance I have to go to Lowes I go and stare at the light fixtures.
Especially the chandeliars.
xoxo Nita

P.s that is one of my favorite songs!

dabrah said...

Donna, I can't believe I forgot to post my pictures, but they're going up right now, and then I'm going to visit everyone else who joined in and see what they've put up. (Do I dare visit Crystal's?)

You're photos were brilliant! Loved the sink. Is it glass or ceramic? It would look great in my downstairs loo.

I accept the challenge! I'll set next Friday (the 23rd of May) as the day, and I'll think about the subject and post it on my blog. I'm going to the Chelsea Flower Show next week, and I'm tempted to say flowers, but I bet that's already been done.

Donna said...

Nita-Thanks sweetie!! You can have UP TO three pictures...One is fine or two...doesn't matter...usually more than three though and you'd be spending too much time on viewing instead of posting the best of your grouping. Brenda is the one that began this...I need her imput on the rules! I should have stated the rules better in my post!! I didn't...sorry!! I'll go check with her than I'll post a quick statement on the rules today...hughugs


Dabrah- LOL..I thought the pics you had up were Wonderful! They qualified for Bright!!! I don't know how someone could Do that with food!!!
The sink is glass....there are some that are made out of quartz, selling for Big bucks...5 thousand American, on up.
If you want to pick flowers as your theme, flowers, it will be!! Just post on your blog about the challenge, reference Brenda's blog as being our founder of the challenge and the rules.
1. up to 3 pics
2. (the theme of the challenge)
3. Date you pick for the challenge
I see that I need to go back and fix My post as well!LOL...(Sorry Brenda)!!!
Have fun sweetie!!hughugs

Donna said...

Hello EVERYONE!! I changed up my original post to get all this cleared up!LOL...It's new, so it needed tweeking!!! Y'all have a Happy day!!.....Donna

Anji said...

I've missed a lot this week! Hope you're dried out by now. i like the shiny pics!

Donna said...

Anji- Thanks Sweetie! The sun is Finally out...no rain lately. Hope you're having a Wonderful day!!hughugs

dabrah said...

Hi Donna, I'll copy the challenge rules and post them with the new title. I guess I should change the date to give everyone an extra week. I said that "liquid" would be the next challenge, and I think I'll stick with that, since it can be interpreted in so many ways: money= liquid assets; The Sea; fruit juice; a liquidiser, swimming pool, etc etc etc

Brenda said...

We could just call it the Camera Blogger's Photo Challenge. I just love seeing what everyone comes up with.

Donna said...

Dabrah- OK!! Sounds good!! My Hubby has already made a few suggestions...LOL...Liquid will be fun!! Thanks!!hughugs
