Q-TIP...of the day.

If you've not thought of this already ....kind of fun in creating a totally different atmosphere...
Here's my Q-Tip of the day...
Take a night light which always comes with either clear or white bulbs....and change the bulb to pink...

Gives the room a yummy pinkish glow....


and that's my Q-Tip for the day!
Have a good one,
Kathy.

    Good tip, pink is flattering to everyone and especially in the cold, dark winter light!

    you have the most innovative ideas. thank you!

    our city's fanciest store replaced all the lights in
    the many chandeliers with pink bulbs, and it was
    stunning.

    happy new year.

    Great tip, Kathy. It's funny, this morning my husband and I were putting candles out for company and found that our little battery votives had a yellow tint. We wanted a clear or white glow. But didn't realize 'till too late. One might thing the tint wouldn't matter but it does set a certain mood. Thanks for sharing, tami xoxo

    Dolly...I found these pinkies at Home Depot....
    but all the major building and hardware stores carry them.
    I use the larger ones in many of my lamps too.
    Fun.

    Great idea but I was thinking where I could find pink light bulbs and then you said Home Depot. We use a night light in the bathroom 24/7...it would look pretty with the wallpaper too!~Hugs, Patti
