Metal

Today I want to share a few photos with you.  They are of my copper container which I have used today to display a bouquet of flowers ...no surprise ...the flowers part that is.

This metal container has many different uses, one of which is for holding a candle.  The sides to this copper container are pierced so that light from the candle shows right thru ...lovely!

The metal container isn't very large and fits perfectly in the middle of a charger as you can see above.  It has two wire handles so the container resembles a shopping bag.

I have a small obsession with copper.  When I bought my current home, the previous owner had remodeled the kitchen and replaced all cabinet handles with copper ones.  Also, there is a copper ceiling fan in the breakfast room and a copper light fixture over the sink.  The granite counter tops and flooring have copper colored accents in them ...so you see, copper goes with this house very well.
Have a wonderful weekend!

Envelope

An envelope arrived.

Inside was the cutest of cards.

A candle holder frog with 4 of the tinest green candles I have ever seen.

Have a wonderful day!

Hand

Some may look at this hand form and the first word that comes to mind is ...looser.

I bought this because I love it for the art form ...the hand.  I display it on my secretary desk and it makes me smile when I look at it.  The ribbon ...yep, to help me think about anything I need to get done.

Have a wonderful day!

Happiness

Anyone that knows me, understands how much pleasure fresh flowers give to me.

I keep a vase of fresh flowers in my Sun Room year round as a special treat.  It causes such a stir of happiness.

Do you have a favorite flower?

For me it has more to do with color than type of flower; however, I do have my favorites none-the-less.

Half the enjoyment of having fresh flowers is being able to photograph them ...as they change.  I go to the market to buy new ones just when the old ones are fading away and try to re-photograph them in their different stages of glory.

I wish you happiness today and always,
Jan
