I hope everyone is having a good week. In NJ we are going through a cold snap. It is 10 degrees this morning!!!
By now, everyone knows that I love placing transfers with Mod Podge on flower pots and embellishing them with various dried flowers, etc. I recently made these pots for some folks that we don’t get to see during the Holidays. They make nice little gifts and people appreciate the homemade thought.
One has Lavender (www.lavenderfanatic.com) and the other wheat grass (Michael’s); off course while I was doing these I had to make one for myself.

Thank you and thank you for always stopping by my friend.
Lovely ideas! Isn’t ModPodge the best? Stay warm!
Stacy
It is amazing stuff. I can’t believe how cold it is right now.
Very pretty and they make for lovely gifts, Cynthia! I keep saying I’m going to do more pots, and I just got a Michael’s reward coupon so I’ll have to go soon and get some.
I can just imagine what you will do with them.
These are so pretty, I can understand why you also made them for yourself.
This is a very cool idea. Lavender smells so nice
Thanks so much!
Those are just darling! And I love your header of lavender. Have always wanted to be in England when the lavender fields are in bloom. sigh. Thanks for stopping in at Cranberry Morning today. I laughed at your response to our cold weather.
Hope you have a great day.
Thank you for visitng I hope you do it more often. I love making items such as these, a lot of fun.
Cynthia
Love the lavender…mmmmm! reminds us that summer is…well, ok, it’s way far off at the moment ~ but the smell takes you there
It does make you hope for warmer weather, it is very windy and cold in northern NJ right now.
Cynthia, I love the lavender! IT looks easy and beautiful!
I know what you mean about the cold, today I think the high is 18 but the wind is about 16 mph so it is frigid and frankly misserable out there.
Thank you for stopping bye.
Elizabeth
Today got worse as the day went on, the wind is rediculous.
Those are very cute. What a sweet gift idea!
Shari,
Thank you so much for your lovely comment!
These are adorable! Who wouldn’t love a sweet gift like that!! And of course, having one yourself is just prudent…I mean you wouldn’t want to forget how to make them!!
Lovely gift idea…thank you so much for sharing it with us for Pearls and Lace Thursday!!
Blessings,
Doni
Thank you so much, they are so much fun to do too!!
Oh, I love these! I want to make some of these, they’re so cute. I’m in Illinois and we’re having super cold temps too. I hate it! But at least the sun has been shining.
Jennifer
TThank you for your kind words, it means alot.

Very cute pots and what wonderful gifts they make! It’s cold here too on the Island. It is minus 18 Celsius at the moment. Not as cold as yesterday though. At least the sun is shining. Thank you Cynthia for sharing your inspiration with us at my HOME and enjoy your weekend.
Blessings,
Sandi
