I'll be taking many more pictures, but I'll start out with this for now. It is a vintage cobalt carafe - one of my favorite shapes and colors. - cobalt princess xxxxx And here's another... an ivory 12-inch comport. Don't let the fruit fool you - it's artificial! - cobalt princess xxxxx I have a black thumb, not green! I turned a badly chipped mixing bowl (#5) into a planter by filling in the chips with grout and then painting the repaired rim with an obviously darker color of model-car enamel paint. Then I filled with styrofoam, artificial plants, and brown felt to simulate dirt. Voila! A plant even I can't kill! - cobalt princess xxxxx And one more. This is another badly-damaged mixing bowl (#3). In this case, I painted over glue discolorations on the rim and filled in chipped areas with layers of paint. Add a few artfully-draped leaves, and it was good to go! - cobalt princess xxxxx In my picture, you see flowers - lots of flowers! The vintage teapot has a crack in it - I don’t know what happened. Maybe someone tried to keep water warm on the stove. But the crack goes all the way around the teapot bottom. So now it's a pretty planter. Pink, purple, and blue - I’m all about that! - Sweets xxxxx all Fiesta - Sweets xxxxx sweets comport - Sweets
