Mother Nature

Barb over @ Grits and Glamour is having her second Wild About Mother Nature Party. 

It all started with 2 moss balls and a large
square white tray.
So I gathered up some 
moss, black iron urn,
a grapevine wreathe,
a birds nest,
a bird,
some twigs,
and a white hyacinth.

The white hyacinth was
purchased at our local grocery store.
$5.00
There were 3 to a  pot.
I separated one and  
planted it in the urn.
The urn I already had.
Added the moss,
purchased for $3.00 a bag @
Walmart.

Placed the urn in a grapevine wreathe
purchased for $12.00 @
our local florist.
Then came the moss balls,
already had.
Added the birds nest with eggs,
already had.
Then came the cute green bird.
already had.

 


So here is my Mother Nature 
display on my coffee table
in our living room.

  12. Linda - read your question on my blog www.westiejulep.blogspot.com about having 2 westies - we had Julep first - waiting one year - and the got Derby from the same breeder - they have the same westie mom - but different westie dads. Derby's dad took Best of Breed at Westminster two years ago ... what I was told is that it's not a good idea to purchase two puppies at the same time - because they will bond with each other instead of you - and if they do something wrong - you won't know who did it unless you happen to be watching them. We like the mix of one boy - one girl - girls are alpha but if I had to do it over again I think I would go with two boys - the personalities are so different - at least in my case.

    If you are on Facebook go to the GROUP page I started called WESTIES HEALTH -- FROM EARS TO TAIL. It is only for health related questions on our westies.

    All the best and good luck on your next westie,
    Katie
