A couple of days ago I showed you the
prisms that hang in our windows. The prisms are so pretty in and of themselves, but the rainbows they create are truly spectacular! Here are some that I captured around the house...
(click any photos to enlarge)Rainbows dance on the ceiling and upper wall of the dining room...
... inside the family room bookcases...
...across the living room pie safe...
... and down the hallway.
They brighten up the kitchen cabinets...
...and the slipcovered sofa
(I love how the scrollwork of a decorative tray cast a shadow across the rainbow).
They appear on lampshades and walls...
...dining room chairs...
...and the living room pie safe.
Even the candleholders that sit in the dining room window cast little rainbows in the bay window.
A houseplant leaf casts a shadow on the hallway wall...
...while rainbows chase each other around the grandmother clock.
And lastly, the living room rocker, decorated with rainbows and the shadows of a lace valance.
The rainbows are especially enjoyable during the long, cold winter here in New England as they definitely brighten up our little cottage!

The little rainbows must really light up your home. Little sparkles here and there...so nice especially on those days that are so cold. I love them, hugs, Kathleen
ReplyDeleteMy Aunt Beryl has had prisms hanging in her windows for as long as I can remember (nothing in her house ever changes...I call it the place wheer time stands still). I recently bought some but I don't guess I've hung them in the right place because they sparkle but they don't cast any rainbows. ;o(
ReplyDeleteAren't those beautiful?! I know what you mean, chickee! I love the way our chandelier prisms cast lovely light around our dining area. I need all the help I can get in this house....for sure......

Love rainbow splashes. I like to believe that seeing any kind of rainbow is God's way of say "Hi, I'm here and thinking of you".
