Look at my new flowers

My mom came over the other day and helped me make this new arrangement in my great-grandmother's old copper pot. According to my grandmother it was used to do laundry in! Boy do I love my washing machine! Anyhow, I have had dried flowers in it for about four years and my kids had just about destroyed them all. I would, of course prefer real flowers to these silks, but that is just not practical and I am happy with the extra color in the room. And that gorgeous chair next to the flowers? That is my talented husbands creation! And it only took three years! Just goes to show, never give up on that guy, he always comes through in the end.
