Hi there, the weather was sooo spectacular today. It was in the mid 60’s and felt positively balmy! It was such a treat to be able to walk outside with just a sweater and hard to believe a week ago we had SNOW! Teddy was thrilled and did a little sunbathing:) Enjoying a relaxing weekend and happy to have the downtime!

I get so excited when I get new things in, I am truly like a little kid in a candy shop… and I got some gorgeous new pieces from my very popular and very affordable statuary line. Normally these are made to order and take on average 4 weeks however in anticipation of the holidays I ordered multiples of these new styles, as they are on the small to medium side size wise so are multi functional inside and out and are just so beautiful.

For those of you who do not know of my online statuary and planter line, as hard as it is to believe these are fiberglass NOT heavy antique statuary. They are molded after beautiful classic old world designs but can be picked up with one hand! The best of both worlds…..then you add the special antiquing that has been applied and these are just nothing short of spectacular! Many take these with them when they go to their local nursery to play around with various plants and flowers….how convenient is that? You sure can’t do that with stone!

My mind is racing with all the possibilities and ways to use these, especially over the coming holidays! Take a look…….

 Pair 1- practical and could be used or sooo many things. I see orchids or a beautiful pointsetta, or a pile of pine cones and evergreen, how about as a wine cooler filled with ice! 12″ x 12″ x 10″ $ 85.00

 PAIR 2- This one is so elegant, I could see a small boxwood or boxwood ball, a large pointsetta or holiday plant 12.5″ x 12.5″ x 12.5″ $85.00

 Pair 3- A great one for orchids or a boxwood ball, also great size for a bottle of champagne! 10″ x 10″ x 10″ $64.00

 Pair 4 – Pretty with nothing but would be perfect (since it is shallow) for evergreens and pinecones or an orchid and I would also try this as a crudite display  as I was recently inspired to do…this would be perfect. Also great for soaps in a powder room!  8″ x 14″ x 9″ $75.00

Pair 5- Love the square shape and regal old world design. This one is screaming for a huge pointsetta for the holidays or a large orchid arrangement. In the summer I would put a large hydrangea plant in it…beautiful!  15″ x 15″ x 11″ $110.00

 Mr. Teddy sunbathing……and of course watching over yours truly to be sure I don’t slack!
Now lets take a look at all of the amazing ways to use urns…the possibilities are endless! Have any ideas of your own?  Some of these are my own, some are my customers pictures of what they have done with the urns they bought from me and the rest are online inspiration…..

And how I have already started fiddling around with my new urns…..

 Perfect for my little white pumpkins that are still going strong

 Boxwood balls look beautiful in this style planter and literally look good anywhere!

 Love the boxwood topiary in this one…so regal!

 Love the idea of them as a soap dish!

 My powder room

 Don’t think I have gone mad….. I happened to have these trees in  my garage and the pine cones so quickly threw them in the planter to see how they would look, can see a pair flanking the fireplace in my family room…..

 Wow who knew there were so many spectacular ways to use urns!! OK if you want to get your hands on one of these beautiful planters, just refer to the item pair number and email me. They are in stock (4-6 pieces of each) so limited availability. Last day to custom order from this line to ensure delivery for Christmas is Nov.20th which is just in a few days! Thanks for stopping in and enjoy your weekend!

How fun! I love all of your ideas for decorating urns. You have a great collection in your store! I’m going to see what two pictures I will enter for your contest! Sounds fun!! XOXO

So many wonderful uses for urns and your new ones are so beautiful. I love what you did with them. The soaps look so great and the pine cones and towering evergreen, beautiful Tina. I think I need to treat myself to a pair!

The urns are gorgeous, I have been looking for something similar for my front steps for two small topiary I bought, however my steps are so narrow that I am unable to use something like this. I am really disappointed and now having to look for an alternative option. I guess I could get one and use it inside like some of the examples above.

Good evening, beautiful!

You have given me an idea for my outside urn in the garden; I am going to paint it white, let it get weathered over the winter and I’ll but a Christmas it it. I’ll be able to see it from my French doors! And those urns look fabulous in the bathroom with the soaps. So French!

Thank you for this lovely and dreamy post before I head off to sleep. It’s been a wonderful Saturday! And Teddy looks wonderful! Anita

Kisses to Teddy!
I have an admitted urn obsession. There is no known cure.
I love a round urn with a glass cloche atop it or an urn filled with white candles.Also, a glass cake plate atop an urn to display cakes and cookies, or crudites… Lots of dramatic ideas in this post. I will be stealing them soon! LOL!

Good morning, beautiful!

Tina, to see your comments is always a true joy. Thank you for visiting my humble space; I really thank you again for lighting up your fireplace just for me, and may every day of yours be filled with the goodness and safety that a warm fire and LOVE brings. Anita

So many good ideas here. I love your line of urns Tina and the fact that you can actually lift them! Are they winterproof too? All the ideas are so lovely, and I love what you did with your new ones, you are so talented. I love your ideas and seeing how your mind works….I have gotten so many good ideas here. Thank you.

First of all I am in love with all of your urns! I think I’ve had something similar in my shop but sure do miss it! The ideas were incredible! I will definitely bookmark this for future use! What a great and fun contest as well! I will send in pics for sure! Love that you think 60 is balmy! I can’t imagine as we are usually at least 10 degrees higher and have the humidity! If it was dry air it would be heavenly! Teddy looks so comfortable! So glad to catch up with you!!

I am Gabriel Carlos, From united states of America. I will start by saying to all that have experience heart break and also cant do with out there lover should please stop here and read up my story, So as you will know how to go solving or getting your ex back from this spell caster..AND AGAIN I WILL WANT TO ALSO TELL ALL THAT THIS SPELL CASTER I WILL WANT TO TELL THE WHOLE WORLD ABOUT IS HARMLESS AND DO NOT HAVE ANY SIDE EFFECT, BUT TO RESTORE AND GIVE YOU BACK WHAT YOU DESERVE, COS WHEN I MEET WITH THIS SPELL CASTER THAT WAS INTRODUCED TO ME BY THE WIFE OF MY BOSS IN MY WORKING PLACE, HE MADE IT CLEAR THAT HE CAN CAST SPELL ON SO MANY OTHER PROBLEMS EXCEPT IN GETTING YOUR EX OR MAKING YOUR LOVER TO LOVE YOU MORE THAT WILL SUITE YOU. Last year December, My lover was cheating on me and was not also give me the attention that a man should give to a woman,And really that was troubling my mind and tearing my heart apart to the extent that i was not concentrating in the office the way i use to before the break up by my lover.And before that incident,I always see how my boss use to love his wife so much. I was bringing to think that i was not doing the right thing to him that will make him love me forever,So i really gathered my courage and went to my boss wife office to ask her the secret that made her husband love her so dearly,In the first place she refused in telling me,She asked me why i am asking her such a question,That if is it not normal for every man to love his wife.I told her the reason that made me ask her about this question,That my lover started cheating on me lately,When i knelt down before her for her to see my seriousness in this issue that i went to ask her,She opened up to me by telling me that i should not tell anybody about what she want to tell me,The wife to my boss started to say to me that she used a very powerful spell on his husband to love her,And the spell that she used is harmless, But the spell is just to make him love her and never to look for any other woman except her. I QUICKLY ASK HER HOW DID SHE GET TO KNOW THIS GREAT,POWER,DURABLE AND PERFECT WORK SPELL CASTER,she said that a friend of hers also introduce her to him. Then i also ask her how i can meet with this spell caster.SHE SAID EVERYTHING TO ME,THAT THE NAME OF THIS SPELL CASTER IS Dr. [email protected] .My next question to her was how can i get this wonderful spell caster,She said she is going to give me the email of the spell caster for me to contact him for my problem,Really she gave to me this spell caster email and i contacted him and explained all to him,And after every thing that needed to be done by the spell caster, In the next two days, My lover that hated me so much came to house begging for forgiveness and i was so glad that i have finally gotten my heart desire..I was so grateful to this spell caster for what he has done for my life.. So i made a promise to him that i will always continue telling the world about his wonderful work towards me and also to other that came to you before and also the people that will also get to you from my story that i narrated online now..I will want to say to the entire world that you should not cry over noting again, That there is a great man that has been helping individuals to restore there Joy and smile in there faces !! The direct email to get this man is :[email protected],This is what i want to tell you all out there,That is thinking that all hope is lost OK..Thanks

My name is Nicolas from Florida. This would be my second time here. Just to say another thank you to DR.LOVESPELL for all he has done for me. Unlike other spell casters in Africa and Asia who are not true. He got my ex back just after all hopes was lost, he got me a job and with rapid promotion in a company that hardly promotes people. Here is the link, i was one of them http://www.hardwaremerchandising.com/news/walmart-promotes-25-000-employees-at-store-ceremonies/1002692320/?&er=NA now we are getting married in two weeks time. You are all invited. Special thanks to DR.LOVESPELL. To my greatest surprise, it was almost free. I am so happy i can be this happy again in my life. You can contact him directly via e-mail on [email protected] or mobile.+37067060228. Here
is one simple way to differentiate between the fake and the real spell casters. You can Google his name and all you would see about him are wonderful testimonies of how he helped people. As for the fake ones, you would see some stories of how the swindled some people. Their list is all over the internet. DR.LOVESPELL is exemption from that list.
