Cloches

All Dressed For Summer

003  I love cloches and have dressed a number of mine for summer. Hope you enjoy.

004

I placed my Fitz and Floyd shell under this cloche. This is a favorite piece of mine that I have had for many years. The colors are very, very soft.

009

This metal cloche is one of my all time favorites and many times I choose to display it with nothing inside.

How pretty, Barb!! We were both thinking seashells...LOL...must the the FL influence, huh?
I love that you put tassels on top of yours. I could have done that if I'd thought of it.

The metal one is spectacular, too! You always do such nice arrangements.

I see new pillows showing up on your sidebar. I must go investigate!!

fondly,
Rett

BUT I saw the little bike in your previous post and thought Hey I have that bike and now I have an idea - thanks for the reminder - I'm off to scoop it off the deck where it has been just sitting empty!!!lol I picked up that Victoria mag too just because of the cover - and I too have to sit on my front porch to read and have my breakfast every Sat & Sun morning no matter the weather!!! Have a great weekend dear - Sincerely, Jeannette

All so pretty, Barb, and I just love the metal cloche!
I have never seen anything like it. I agree that it is
a work of art all on its own...just gorgeous.

I have enjoyed my visit immensely, thank you...

Hi Barb, I love, love your metal cloche. So pretty with the little birdie on top. It is one that I wish I had. Your F&F shell is lovely in your glass cloche. I signed up for the upcoming rooster party a few days ago. Hope you got my note.
hugs, Sue

I love them both. The geranium in the wire cloche is perfect and I love that shell. I didn't know there was a Fitz and Floyd shell...hmm, the search is on!

I love them both but the bird cage is super awesome!
