Today at the swap meet I purchased a lovely (no actually it's ugly) swan shaped planter for Dooley. However, that is not the theme I have in mind for the herb garden. Now that we have that nice large round white ball, I have a new idea for a theme. Think 1939 New York World's Fair. DR

Oh fun! Or you could take the ball and do a little Epcot Center miniature Disney world... Very Happy

An ugly swan? Time for some very fluffy herbs to cover it up!

Only DR thinks it's ugly. This man's grandma made it in a mold and it's old and has a zillion coats of white paint on it. I'm thinking of something with red flowers in it. Maybe impatiens. Dooley

I have to see this swan as well. Maybe we can take an anonymous poll on whether it is ugly or not Mr. Green
