Hi Ladies and fellow Decor Enablers:

 

I absolutely enjoy watching Valerie with Alberti. Two very polished and sophisticated presenters!! I think they really appreciate one another and it shows. I wish Alberti was on prime time more often, he is just so pleasant and professional. Luv u AP!

 

I especially loved their presentation on the new faith bracelets. It actually brought tears to my eyes but in a good way. I love Easter for religious reasons just as much as Christmas. Thank you Valerie for not being afraid to share the beautiful faith “love story”!

 

Of course I bought too much......the silver rabbit and chicks and the rabbit set in the boiled wool set. Elegant looking to me. 

 

Ladies, don’t you think we deserve a shipping deal??? Almost every online retailer offers some form of free or reduced shipping! TPTB should take notice.....

@Coopsmommy ~ A deal on shipping would be sooooo nice!  It adds up quickly when multiple items are purchased.

 

I ordered the silvertone chicks this morning.  I took a closer look and they seem really narrow (does that make sense)?  I always think of chicks as being chubby.  I think these are just under 2 inches wide?  I might cancel but not sure.  I'm sure I can find a place for them.

 

Enjoy your new goodies!!!

I enjoyed the show. Haven’t really seen Alberti much but thought he did a nice job with Valerie. She seems so genuine to me. Love her. Those rabbits in the boiled wool were bigger than I expected. Nice details. I didn’t buy anything but am considering the garland to go with the TSV wreaths and candle rings I already have. Am debating on the one time only in clear. Not sure. Totally agree on the reduced shipping. Free shipping would make me pull the trigger on a few items!

The chicks seem slim.......but that actually works out for me because I plan on using them in a big cloche or maybe on my narrow mantel. Hope they work for u.

@crazycockermom

YES......$5.50 per item is nuts. I had over $20 in shipping that really annoys me but I wanted the items.

i don’t know if you have any of Valerie’s metal pieces that have the 3 mercury hurricanes I bet that garland would look lovely woven through it. Or laying down the beveled mirrors down dining table.

I rarely watch QVC but I go over their dayily offerings.  Is Alberti the man who was on with Valerie when she presented the lantern and the crystal hurricanes?  I loved those and ordered one of the pink and one of the clear.  I bought a lot of micro colored lights a year ago and figure I can use the pink for Valentine's day and Spring/Easter, the clear for every other holiday.

Yes, that was Alberti with Valerie.......he does a lot of shows on Beauty IQ. Super sweet and seems genuinely nice.

 

I purchased the clear hurricanes during the christmas season and everyone complimented them. What a smart idea of yours to use different colored micro lights in them, I think i'll be doing that thanks!

Hi @Coopsmommy

 

Thank you for telling me about Alberti.  I kept hearing good things about him, I'm glad I finally got to see him.  How did I miss those hurricanes during the Christmas season?! 

 

I also ordered one of the jeweled mirrors to put the hurricane on.  I figure I will only be using one at a time. 

 

I think my daughter and I got the colored microlights from QVC but Target also had some at that time, it was about a year ago.

On Alberti-go to his Facebook Page around holidays, he enjoys decorating his home and sometimes has a video where he shares his ideas.  He really is talened and many of us have suggested to QVC that he should share his talents and have a decorating show where he can share tips--course QVC has ignored us....but neat to checkout his decorating on Facebook......he decorated his dinning room for an Easter Brunch...and of course Christmas........

I didn't purchase anything....most of the merchandise was previously shown, except for the Easter bunnies and egg garland on the table and a couple other things, but it was mostly stuff Ive seen before. I guess Ill have to tune in tommorrow morning since Valerie said that show would feature different merchandise than what was shown today.....

 

I did think the bunnies dressed in wool were adorable!!!!  

 

I agree about the shipping...and what irks me is when QVC packs 2 items you ordered from the same show in one box, but the customer doesnt get a break that they used one box instead of 2 to ship it.....Woman Mad
