Apothecary Revamp

I finally did a little re-decorating around here. I think that I run on solar energy, and let me tell you...there has been no sun for way too long!!!

I revamped my apothecary jars. I added these, and took out the moss and eggs. They don't look a whole lot different, but I think they look a little cleaner and not so messy.

Like I said, not a huge difference, but there is something else that I added....



Can you tell what it is? Little globes and a trunk all showing Australia. I would move there in a heartbeat if I thought that we could afford it. That's a huge statement coming from the very non-adventurous me. I'd even be willing to give Vegemite a try! Most of my family even said that they would come along. Although I am not loving all of the deadly creatures that reside there. I suppose I would eventually miss the rain and green that we have here, but I am so water logged right now that a little bit of arid open space sounds great.

Hi!
You KNOW I love your apothecary jars!
Where in the world (pun intended) did you find those little globes with Australia on them???
Adorumble, they are!
I think I must run on solar energy, too! I get so much more done when the day seems cheery.
I am sorry to hear about your water-logged garden!
Is anything growing at all?
Well, I loved your post, and I hope your kitchen gets done sooner than you think.
Hugs to you!

Hey Andrea. You know what...I noticed the little Australia's straight away! Maybe if you can't move here you could always come for a little visit? Don't worry about deadly wildlife, I've lived here all my life and have never even been stung by a bee! Plus it does tend to rain - sometimes at least (a lot more in the tropical areas) - though where I live we're still not allowed to wash our cars or fill up a pool without permission!
