My Splurge ~

Last weekend I headed to a neighboring town for their annual "summer beach market" on the shores of Lake Erie.  At one of the first booths I entered, I spotted these tin cones for only a dollar for all three.  You may recognize them as cemetery vases.  For a buck I couldn't pass them up but had no idea what I would do with them. 

When my soon-to-be sister-in-law saw them (she and my brother have been together for 33 years . . . it's about time, don'tcha think?) she immediately said "Christmas trees".  Duh.  Why didn't I think of that?

I thought they would be pretty cool topped with a wool star . . . or perhaps a rusty tin star.

I even like them stacked as one tree.  Decisions, decisions 😃

This was my only purchase plus a donation to an animal rescue group that was there.

I had an overnight house guest.   There was a special election in Ohio and Ernestine's daddy (my DSO) is a poll manager.  She is 11 now and starting to show her age a bit.  She can't walk a mile like she used to be able to.  We put her in Molly's stroller and she is happy as a clam.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Pug hugs 😊
