Monday Musings: Ja-Ja-Ja Jaded

Ok so maybe it is cha-cha changes but today it is going to be ja-ja-jaded.  I am jaded for multiple reasons this fine Monday morning. One being, I just love the shade of jade. Any and everywhere. I mean, I love any variation of the hue of green: emerald, chartreuse, kelly, lime...the list goes on, but jade is such a special and rich shade. Two being, it is Monday and this would be my attitude on any average Monday. I will say, we had a fabulous weekend with some fabulous friends. This week will call for a detox, which also includes ingesting jade-ish items. I digress. Today we will talk about the jade like items you can add to your home, and not to your face. So I got on this color craze recently due to me wanting jade lamps in our dining room. I know this will come as a complete shock to you, but I could not find them. Well, what does a girl like me do when she is trying to find the impossible dream? She buys spray paint. You got it. Jade lamps I now have. More on that later. Let's look at some jade spaces. 







See? It is even better than emerald could even imagine to be. Use jade. Have a fabulous Monday my sweets.
