I Got Lost on My Way to the Forum...I Mean Urn

I said I was going to seek out another urn to balance out the 2 plant shelves in my living room. On my way to buy an urn I got sidetracked by a couple of small containers. Excuse me while I cry.

Okay. much better now. I just couldn't pass up these 2 darling pots. The verdigris one is metal.



But this little stone honey is the most delicate shade of blue that I just fell in love with it and had a 50% coupon so you know what I did...bought it also in lieu of the urn.


I feel another trip to the store or nursery coming on. Excuse me...

Oooooh, and yes, I climbed on a ladder to take these pix! See what I do for you chicks.

  3. Hello, Connie! I hope you remember me -- I haven't visited since you got your new glasses! (Remember, you didn't want to shell out the money for the red eyeglass holder?!) Anyway, it is nice to visit and thanks for climbing up the ladder to take the pics for us chicks! ha-ha! And hey, I might climb up on that ladder to STEAL the light blue one! I LOVE it! It would go VERY nicely in my kitchen! :)
    Best regards,
