One silver-plated wine bucket from a weekend rummage sale. (I think it may be from Bombay & Co. originally.) Plus one small vase.
Isn't this a great price?
Polish it up (oops, I missed a spot) and add peonies from the garden.
Voila! Instant glamour, on the cheap. ;)
Happy Tuesday, dear bloggers!

Hi Mary! I didn't get a chance to visit all the mosaics yesterday, I have been busy cleaning out my hubby's office while he is on a trip. I am redecorating it too! But I really needed a break. So I am catching up this morning with a cuppa coffee...
