Flower Power

Don't you just love these? I do. I could sit and stare at them all day. I can feel a new addiction starting and at a couple of quid a pop I'm happy to go along with it.
Today the one just above is my favourite. I love the tiny weeniness of the flowers and all the colours together.
I love the ones in coloured pots or vases. So far I have a pink pot (with gold round the feet which makes it double gorgeous) and a green pot. We saw one in a blue pot but the guy wanted £8 for it so I walked.

I'm more drawn to the pinky, greeny, yellowy ones so I might, (only might) give my cousin the white daffodilly one. She was after it on Tuesday but I meanly held on to it because I was so excited at finding so many in one place. Now I've had a chance to look at them properly (and lick them, bite them and lay on them for a little while because they make me so happy) I feel a little more generous.
The tiny chips here and there don't bother me in the slightest, a little nan may have done this whilst dusting them which adds to their charm.
Have another butchers...


At present they are all very unimaginitively lined up on my kitchen windowsill waiting for their final homes.
They make me smile!

  1. Hello:
    What pretty miniature flowering bouquets these little pots make, and how lovely they look when clustered together. Can one have too many? We think not. We shall watch your collection grow as Followers.

  5. Oh..so pretty ( I am jealous!)..you have such a sweet collection of them. I would have a hard time picking a favourite, as they are all so lovely. I had found one at a boot sale a few years back..I loved it, but I made the mistake of putting it near the bathroom sink, where is fell (into a zillion pieces). Why are the prettiest things, also the most fragile :P
