    So pretty, I love the punch of color from the knitting needles! And I had to look really close again at the flowers, they do really look real!

    I love what you've done with the silver stand. I saw one of those last weekend at an antique store but didn't buy it because I couldn't figure out how to use it.

    I wish I'd bought it now.

    Hi Amy- I have one of these on my coffee table with a mix of other items and I've got a candle inside mine. I too bought mine from a thrift shop and just love its curves and detailing on it. This was a fun post.
    Stop by my site and please help me spread the word that I'm having a giveaway to help celebrate my birthday this month. Thanks!
