It's a Cloche Party!!! I searched the world over...and could not find an absolutely adorable cloche...or a cloche in particular of any kind...so...I snooped and snooped on Marty's blog...(A Stroll Thru Life...) and discovered that all I had to do was look around my house! I could even have used my greenhouse!!! After all...it's clear and holds things right? Here's what I came up with...
Huge Jar on Cake plate...holds ornamental fruits...
Didn't like it on cake plate...so I put it here...
Huge wire Tea Pot...filled with beautiful foam/paper/spongy wood flowers...
I made this crown...it has an antique silver sugar server filled with faux flowers...it sits on the bathroom counter (for today anyways)
Small crown...holds tea lights...but I like it empty
Another one the same filled with vase fillers...
In the bedroom...Heavy wire tea pot...small one...filled with bottles of perfume I don't wear...but think are pretty in there.
On the dresser in the bedroom...anyone have any tips for the mirror!!! I just cleaned it and can't seem to get the streaks out!!! It looks awful!
Large crown antique silver creamer filled with faux hydrangea and olive sprigs.
The large tea pot to the set...filled with carpet balls sitting on my dresser....is is okay to have tea pots in the bedroom?
A smaller crown...holding a robin's nest from this summer's birds..I've already relocated it all for the fallerizing I did, but it is a shot of the crown!
I bought this when we went to Florida a few years back. I like it empty...
It and it's matching tea cup sit on the top of my kitchen cupboards....Part of a large collection of tea pots...
This also sits on the top of the cabinets...it is filled with faux cherries...
close-up....there is glass inside...pretty isn't it?Well..that's all I have for you guys...I wish I could have found a bell shaped cloche...maybe next time...until then...head yourself over and check out Marty's place...now that's a lady with some fantastic cloches to share...and see hers, and all the others that are participating in this fun party!
I do hope you all will join me for my Friday Meme...Fertilizer Friday...and Flaunt your beautiful gardens and plants! See you there!

My bedroom mirror always has streaks. Maybe because mine is getting old. I do wish I could get it clean.
Take care!

Also your header picture is stunning!
Great job! Thanks for sharing!

Don't clean under direct light, either. The heat of a nearby lamp will cause streaking. Also, the vinegar cuts the windex residue, if that is what you have been using. I usually alternate between the two cleaners. Hope this helps.

I loved everything. It was just beautiful. The crowns you made are just gorgeous. So original and new. Love them. Loved the little tea pot wired cloches. I collect tea pots and love tea, so they were very precious to me. Thanks for sharing. Country hugs sweetie. Please stop by and see my cloches. Country hugs, Sherry
My friend, I love all of your fabulous cloches/containers!!! Ohhh my...you have such a lovely collection of teapots...I just adore them all...and you have them decorated beautifully!
I just left you a note on your Autumn decor post last night...I am really, really enjoying your Autumn decor!!! I've been studying your vignettes and what you're using...they're all so beautiful! I hate to be a copycat but hey...when something looks that pretty...got to use the original blueprint...wink! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us...love, love, LOVE what you've done here!!!

Please come visit me and see my first attempt. I made a bell shape by turning my hurricane lamp upside down.
If we have a hurricane, I'm in trouble!
