That I can afford another darn crown!Lol! Plus I needed to show a little Christmas spirit to deserve the honor below *winks*

Thanks for stopping by! To answer your question - I've used just instant plain chocolate pudding & it tastes the same! So either one works. Sally
Vanna,your crowns are beautiful fit for a queen. I love Chrissy and her blog.. it's wonderful isn't it. I too checked out the crowns.I'm trying to be a good girl and not order any..lol.. I loved your answers. It's always nice to learn more and more about you..Thanks for the info about the camera..and for the wonderful compliment..made me smile and laugh out loud..hugs ~lynne~
Awww! Thank you sooo very much for posting and sharing this special award with all. It means alot at this time of year to take the time. Loved all your answers as well. ;0
Your crowns are all gorgeous! Love how you have them displayed. It is a very nice start to this collection.
~Beautiful post~ :)
Your crowns are gorgeous, and you DO REALLY need more. haha. Can't have a collection without several. You do have them displayed so beautifully. Love them. Marty
Love your crowns - now it's plural yippee! I think you definitely need at least one more to make it a collection, but hey why stop at 3? Loved your favorite things about Christmas too, thanks for a great post. Hugs, Kathy
Every Queen should have a collection of crowns,you must change them with your moods,everyone knows that so if you have more than 3 moods I think you will need more than 3 crowns.I love the display.Great textures and contrast,you are a marvel and a "QUEEN",hugs Kathysue
Your Majesty, or is it ma'am hehe another Crown, you will have more than Lizzy herself, I love your crowns, congrats on your awards,have a wonderful week, hugs, Kathy.
Hi Vanna! Oh, you deserve many more crowns than just three! These are so pretty and who but you would think to put the moss under them like this!
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
I love the crown, Vanna! Where did you find it? Of course if it is elegant, Vanna can spot it. LOL! Nice collection going there and I agree, you need more!...Christine
I love the crowns! The more the merrier! But it's your special touch, your wonderful way of arranging the crowns that make them total eye candy and elegant, all at once.
Hugs,
G
Being from the South, the crown I am most familiar with is Royal Crown Cola. It has a fan base almost as large as yours.
I agree with Kathysue, you definitely need more. I say at least one for each day of the week to start. Then you can add as availability and desire dictate. This one is a definite keeper.
I think your list had the perfect perspective.
Hooray for collections...crowns, crowns & more crowns! You have a good start but keep your eyes open for every one you can add...hey, it's only money...LOL ;-) Bo
Ahhhh... I love your crown,and I feel like a Queen myself cause you mentioned my blog(even though you did blame me for your crown issues!) I don't know about your crowns but all of mine were under $20...thats why I want more!!hahaha, glad you like my bedroom, I am happy with it, I don't want to turn the light off at nite! Have a wonderful day!!
Your crowns are so cool. I wish I had any kind of grandeur so I could collect them also...I guess I'll stick with collecting dust
Love your Christmas Spirit!
Hello Ms. Vanna....
Yes...you are the Queen, my friend!!! I can't believe you found another crown and nabbed it so quick...hehe!!! They really are gorgeous...and I just love the way you've displayed them...true grandeur!!! Okay...you know that it was you that got me started with the Frenchy busts...will I have to start shopping for crowns too? Hehe!!! I'm such a little copycat, aren't I? But you always have the greatest ideas and the very most beautiful home ever!!! You have a great day Sweetie...
Love ya,
Chari
PS...I definitely agree that you must have 3 crowns...hehe!!!
The crowns are beautiful. Now, I want to start a collection.
You asked about painting Cherubs/Angels. I sure can paint them. I'll paint just about anything. :) Or at least attempt it.
Have a wonderful day,
Kris
It is a beautiful crown...and you do it justice by displaying it so perfectly!
I've never known anyone who collected crowns - how novel! You are well on your way to an amazing collection!
I love your logic and I'm collecting miles...ok know I feel better and can start looking for a crown!
Now if I find one you have to help me decorate the room it would go in. My rooms are not RMS worth and that's no joke!!
Love the new crown now when do we get to see it on your head??? (lol) French;)
Hello……
This is amazing!! I am so glad to found your blog!
You are welcomed to my blog…….
Wishing you in advance "A Merry X'Mas and A Happy New Year''
Good morning my friend, I loved reading these again. A girl has gotta have her bling doesn't she?
hugs ~lynne~
I don't think its "delusions", I think it really is "Grandeur"!!! Everything is gorgeous!! Who would have thought to collect crowns and make them look fabulous??
Love the answers to your Christmas Spirit Award!
Enjoy your Season ~
Lynette
Sheesh Vanna...your comments are the funniest part of my post!!! I'm gonna have to hire you to write for me! Fifi had a contest all this month...you sent in a picture...and if she picked you she would paint it. She does stuff quite often so just start visiting her and cross your fingers. I was so freaking excited when she picked me. It is the coolest prize ever! And about that armoire...I'll be glad to hand over Miles for a tip on that thing...I mean I love Miles...but dang...that cabients rocks my world lol
Vanna I saw your comment on Lynnes site about bling and your chandy crystals- I am anxiously awaiting your blog on how you will use these as I have lots of these too and apart from hanging some on my tree which I did- I am at a loss and need you "blingy queens" to come to my rescue!!
Am doing another little informal girlie dinner tonight so better get cleaning!!

that crown is creating a monster of me! come see! I just posted the one I finally found....and I am sure the people in that store will never forget the exitement over it! lol
thanks for the visit!
Hello Vanna,
Check out Jan's new jeweled vintage crown pin!
It's so you.:)
She's on my "blog list" at the bottom of my home page.
~Melissa :)
Loving that crown!!! I am so glad Tootsie got one, there was just no living with that girl!! Enjoy your weekend!!
I'm green with envy! Today I searched high and low for a crown to call my own to no avail. One day, one day when I'm least expected, there it will be in all its glory. In the meantime, I'll just stand afar and admire yours.
Oh my stars...I DO love a tiara. Now if big hair would just come back in style.
Hello Vanna! Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving such a nice msg- Good to meet you! Congrats on your award too! Like your collections girl- Hope you have a wonderful day!
~Smiles~Tam!
MERRY CHRISTMAS to you my new found blogging buddy!!!
Hello Miss Vanna!
Can you believe it? I found a crown as well!
It's gold and teeny but so pretty.
I found it at Marshalls for 6 bucks. What a deal huh? That "almost" never happens to me...LOL! :)
Have a wonderful Monday.
~Melissa :)
Hey ya cutie, thanks for swinging by. I'm just now coming up for air after today's dinner.. Man alive the house was hoping for a bit. But things went smoothly and everyone had a great time. I hope all is well on your side of the world. Hope you're staying warm. We have 3 above and winds are howling.. and the temps are still dropping. Yikes.. that's winter in anyones book.. hugs ~lynne~
I have passed on an award to you
Merry Christmas
Hi Vanna, I came back to look again.
Love this arrangement with the crowns, I have a couple, one like the one on top too. So this gives me ideas of how to use them later after Christmas etc.
Yes, was pretty at times to have a white Christmas but now I am over it! We got dug out better yesterday and so today I escaped to the big city, lol!!! Did some after Christmas shopping. I said I didn't care if I bought anything ( but I did) just was nice to get the heck out of this place.
Hope you get to soon also!
Thanks for stopping and following my blog.
I think once we all thaw and dry out we will have to do a bloggers tea or something!
I have been most pleased and humbled to see that you are following A Divas Hammer...as I find your blog to me so intrinsically rewarding to my design senses, I am adding you to my favs!
