There is NOTHING better than blue and white. This would have made a perfect post for Blue Monday. Consider joining in. Here's my post:

I love your blue and white watering cans*! They remind me of a pretty little tea pot that was given to me from a dear friend on my 25th birthday. _Ashley*

They look beautiful! I put my African violet in a dollar store pot that looks like a big purple bowl. Never thought about tea pots, I'll be keeping my eyes open from now on.

Jean said...

Adorable! Love the violets in them. Jean

Lisa Loo said...

fabulous idea--but there is no way I could keep it alive till Mothers Day--maybe you could adopt me?

Brenda Pruitt said...

Those are cute little watering cans (if you can call them cans). I think they'd be too small for real watering, so using them as planters sounds like a better idea . :)

Adorable! I love african violets anyway - I'm going to try to find something to duplicate the look. What a great idea for a little gift also.
