I can’t quite for the like of me figure out how I’ve gotten so behind on my 52 week challenge. I know I missed some weeks for traveling and the like but had I been on track, the year would have been over in September. Nonetheless, I still have some vases and vessels to feature and some items in the garden that I think I can highlight without too much repeat from last fall.
For this week I am featuring a new vessel repurposed from a friend who is downsizing. Copper is one of my favorite fall materials for vases and this one is a nice compact size and great shape. The oranges, yellows and bronzes of fall dahlias and other materials slip nicely into this autumnal color scheme.
I’ve got a turquoise piece of pottery I think will go nicely with what’s left in the garden. Look for it next.
