What a Great and Pretty Find

Yesterday I ran errands and got groceries. My usual Saturday chore, not my most favorite way to spend a few hours, but, hey it has to be done. On my way out of the grocery store, I noticed some pretty mums and outdoor planter dishes. They were bright and pretty, and I wondered why they did not have them near the in door. Since I did not feel like going back into the store at that moment, I went along my way. Before I came home I made a quick trip back into the store with this autumn planter dish. The one that I took actually has some blueberries in it, I hope that it doesn't attract any unwanted critters, like mice. The cashier told me that she had not seen anyone getting one, then remarked on the great price. I told her that I always try to give my daughter-in-law a little something pretty for her birthday to go along with her card and cash. And from what the cashier told me, it was a really great find due to the price and that it was not taxable. Yea me! Do you decorate for fall too? ~Photo is mine

Thanks, the picture doesn't really do it justice. There are so many rich colours in it, and a couple of pops of yellow. I hope that my DIL loves it as much as I do.

We decorate for the season of autumn up here. We usually have things go out for Labour Day weekend and then we just add and add to them until the pumpkins, and usually candles, which are the last items to be added. It is a fun tradition.

Thank you. The flowers with the pinkish-purple flowers have blueberries, large ones, on them near the stem. You will enjoy yourself tomorrow decorating. Today is a lovely day in the high 20's now that it is mid afternoon.

I was really happy to find it, and grocery store items like this are always so much more reasonable than they sell them at the nurseries.

Thanks, I couldn't believe the price, that made me look twice. I'm sure that the girls will water it for her as they like the blues and the purple colours that are in it.

It's nice to have a bit of extra colour when things can be getting rather dull, isn't it?

Everything is bright, colourful and beautiful at this time of the year. It will get dull when the last of the leaves drop off of the trees, which isn't until late October or early November. But by then it will be too late to enjoy an outdoor autumn planter dish as it will be too cold.

No I don't do seasonal or holiday decorating, but what you got is very pretty.

Thanks, both my DIL, as well as myself, enjoy decorating for the various seasons. She can add this to her pots and eventually when we go to the pumpkin patch, the girls will want to have their pumpkins in that decorated area.
