Flowers That Never Fade...


Yet another visit to one of my previous JunkMarket Style posts.  I'm still dreaming of Spring here in MN.  Can't wait to get those pots filled on the porch :)


We all have "gifts" right? Well, sadly gardening and maintaining plants is not one of mine. I try every year and every year at some point they start to look pretty sad. So if you're like me, here's a very simple idea to brighten up those poor little pots...


This easy project doesn't need much explanation...fork, faucet handle, vintage earring and a little Gorilla Super Glue is all you need...



And nestled in here...


...there...


...and EVERYWHERE!

Thanks for stopping by!

    I just love these. A little bling in the garden would make my flowers happy :)!

    What a fun and cute idea. Cleverness at its best. This would be a fun little project for kiddos to do. Give them the things to work with and let them create. Thanks for the idea of blinging up our plants.

    These are what I have been saving my 3 or 4 faucet handles for!! I thought it was to use them to make a cross...need a few more for that! They might have to be flowers instead. These are great, Laurel!

    These are SO cute! Adds so much to the flowerpots (which hopefully we can actually plant SOON)!
