|
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...
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

We'd love to see a piccie of the swan planter Dooley!!! I'm sure it's not as ugly as DR makes out.

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

Plant something fluffy in the shoes and make them chia accessories for it.

Must be a man thing because I don't think it's ugly either. Mind you it could do with a new pair of trainers!!!!
