I never put plants on our mantle because it gets too hot up there when we have a fire (gas). Best of all is the vase from your mom. Roseville or any of those classic ceramics are usually too pricey for me. I have a gold vase that was a wedding present my parents received in 1946. My sisters and I found a matching serving plate as a 50th wedding anniversary gift. Now I have both.

After all, someone reminded me that I may need to expand my vase collection...The brass additions are another inspired touch. I'm especially fond of the mushrooms and the frog. All told, this is another fabulous mantelscape. The tablescape is wonderful too. <br /><br />As to the Hippeastrums, mine also seem very slow to get going this year. One variety has yet to show any sign of life, which is troubling as I gave 2 of those bulbs away as gifts. The others, including 3 'La Paz', are doing better but the only actual blooms I've had thus far came from a dwarf variety that got pelted by rain. All of mine are outside, which may factor into their slow development.Kris Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07097260283693156795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-14338471539004095962023-01-06T09:49:24.115-08:002023-01-06T09:49:24.115-08:00Excellent mantlescape as usual Loree !

I've got more chipped Bauer than I can count -much of it from from my early days of collecting when it was hard to afford the unscathed pieces. Facing the chip away from view has always been my solution-as long as the vase will hold water and the chip or crack can either be hidden by the vase contents or the arrangement itself it works for me !kshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10847026541797857854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-72703022883904242352023-01-06T08:53:39.011-08:002023-01-06T08:53:39.011-08:00Your gifted vase is magnificent, you couldn't ...Your gifted vase is magnificent, you couldn't have hoped for a better match with the candle holders: it look like a perfect set.<br />A couple of the ceramic "canoe" plants look like Stapelia to me. If you get a smelly starfish flower, you'll know fro sure.<br />I try to restrain myself from collecting every lichen cover branch I see on my walks. For that reason, the second glass dome is my favorite and the leaping from is a riot: I love that composition.<br />ChavliAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
