    VERY GOOD!!! You found my kind of junque store. I really like the two planters and everything else too.

    Those are great finds, Donna. Please show us the "finished products" when you get the planter planted and the wind chimes made.
    All I ever find is junk, not junque. Or perhaps it's a lack of imagination :( .

    I feel the same Jane when I see others finds. Our stores never seem to have anything as good as everyone else comes across. I still look though - you never know I may discover a hidden treasure somewhere one of these days.

    Is the flower basket wall hanging plaster ?? Check it for a name on back, the watering can looks like copper !! Possibly made in France, may be marked on bottom !!

    Thanks all,
    Mart, Yes the flower basket in plaster. No marking on water can. I think it's brass.

    Great finds and the planters are going to look so pretty planted. I love the watering can too.

    That watering can wind chime will be good. I love everything and can visualize lots of ways for their uses but am interested in how you will use them. That's how I learn.

    I especially like that you got wine glasses. Is it a set of 4?
