Accessorizing Your Plants


I puttered in my studio a little bit this afternoon and came up with 
these cute little vintage bees.  They were brooches in their
former life. ha.  Now they are attached to wooden stakes
and can dress up your indoor plants.

Fun, fun!
They're in the shop today.
Click on the link in my sidebar if you're interested.

      Or would you rather I wrote "Nice post" like R does?

      He does say "Cool post" sometimes. Are you sure you aren't R?
      And I know you're not texting this. ha.

    Accessories are just so fun! And they're even more fun when they're homemade.

      My Shadow would eat the plant,
      then all the cats would give a chant
      and bat that bee along the floor
      and when it got lost, ask for more!
