    I happened upon a garage sale by my office last week and found a few things to buy.

    The jars are for my cousin who collects them. She asked that if I ever saw some to get them for her. She was thrilled that I found green ones, especially that tall one.

    And the little ceramic watering can is mine. I can just see a little succulent planted in it.

    This umbrella stand will probably never be used for it's manufactured intention... I see it holding a pole with bird feeders.

    Same for this basket... picnic? Not! It will be for some house plants for the sale at the church in the summer. It holds 2 liter soda bottles perfectly. I'll probably find some sort of upright plants for those two. I actually had a plastic container that fits in the square part. I'm envisioning some fern in that part.

    Very nice finds. Don't forget to post a picture of that basket when it's finished.
