Cloches



My Cloches and Apothecary Jars



I adore little bird sets and have used one of those sets in this jar.


I made this bird in a ceramics class.


More little birds....I just love them!





I had to include some red!


No display would be complete without a Rooster. Ha.


Some Summery Shells.

  2. Barb, I just love all the different ways you've used and decorated your cloches. Your stands for them are also so pretty. I really like the little birds and the one you made is so pretty. Your rooster is just adoreable under the cloche. Now I would never have thought about putting the berries under one. What a great idea. That's why I'm so excited about this party, everyone always has such great ideas. I just published my post, so as soon as it shows up be sure and go link up with Mr. Linky. Thanks so much for participating. Hugs, Marty

  16. Hi Barb! Of course you had to add a little red. You knew I was coming, didn't you? I love it all. Now I want a rooster for a display. One thing I sure don't have is a rooster! This is just beautiful with all the bows and colors and everything! Impressive!

  37. Barb,

    You are the sweetheart! Your kind message yesterday made me feel warm all over. Although I have never met Niki, we have become friends through email. I am old enough to be her mom! I appreciate any kind of love generated through out blog land for her and Marcus.
    I glanced at your blog yesterday as I was rushing out the door to care for my FIL who broke his shoulder last month and is not strong enough for a shoulder replacement. After seeing your post I thought I was missing the party!:-)
    I LOVED all your beautiful ideas. They are so creative and gorgeous. From the elegant ones to the beautiful cherries which had such a happy color and well you know the roosters all make me smile. The beautful greery and the beautiful bird you made in a ceramics class was awesome.
    An inspiritng post! Thanks for your prayers!
