Stars and Stripes

Bejewelled

I absolutely love this sapphire dome ring ($80) from Sundance Catalogue Company. It looks very mystical and celestial.

Not technically a star, but in the celestial theme, I am about to buy these hand carved mother of pearl crescent moon drop earrings($38) from Bell'Occhio that I have been admiring for some time.

For Pets Too

Otto the pugottie has this great Star studded hemp collar from Earth Dog. It's water proof and wears extremely well. He's had his collar for almost a year and it still looks as good as new.

Antique Flags

I love antique flags as artwork. We've got a very large (and tattered) civil war era flag hanging in our living room.

Jeff Bridgman antiques has a great selection of antique flags that you can view by size or time period.

Barn Stars

When we were driving in Vermont, Maine, and New Hampshire we couldn't help but notice how so many of the barns and outdoor buildings had these big metal stars on them. We've come close to buying one several times, but haven't made the leap yet. AmericanTinStar.com specializes in all types of stars--the traditional Amish barn stars as well as Texas and primitive stars.
