Relegated to the Outside

I've been focusing my attention on things for the out-of-doors due to the lack of space we have inside for knickknacks. I need to put up a few shelves. Or, better yet, I have my eye out for a mid-century hutch that I think we can squeeze into the upstairs of our place. (I'm fairly certain the boyfriend would disagree, which could be a problem when I'm counting on him to help me move whatever I find.) Ideally, I want one that I can refinish White Attic-style. Until then, I've been keeping my eye out for great terrarium containers. Here are couple of the greatest finds thus far, newly planted, but still awaiting the perfect figurines:





And a couple of other finds for my stairs out back: a plastic scalloped-edged pot, a white milk glass thingy-ma-bob, and an etched glass other thingy-ma-bob-made-into-a-plant-holder.





Unfortunately, I kill even succulents (sad, but true), so we'll see how long these last.
