Paris Lights, IC356

 Great Inspirational Site Stef!

After reading the details about how the site was started and learning that this couple's love of unique interior design products sourced from around the world, I thought of travel and the beautiful Paris Eiffel Tower that glistens when it lights up at night.

Somehow these long style Edison light bulb designs reminded me of the fantastic glittery, sparkly, golden Eiffel Tower....

To match my inspirational piece, I even added a gold circle behind the tip of the Eiffel tower to resemble light and the Empirical Style piece.

I must give great Credit to the amazingly talented Linda D, of (Linda's Work of Heart);
http://lindaduke.typepad.com
She always provides such wonderful inspiration with her incredibly gorgeous designs. I love her shabby French style and so I followed her Paris design and layout for mine when creating this one for the Inspirational Challenge. Thank you Linda D! :)

TFL & Happy Creating! :)

Absolutely beautiful. Your details are perfection (including your small circle at the top of the tower)!
