    Today at the swap meet I purchased a lovely (no actually it's ugly) swan shaped planter for Dooley. However, that is not the theme I have in mind for the herb garden. Now that we have that nice large round white ball, I have a new idea for a theme. Think 1939 New York World's Fair. DR

    Oh fun! Or you could take the ball and do a little Epcot Center miniature Disney world... :-D

    An ugly swan? Time for some very fluffy herbs to cover it up!

    Only DR thinks it's ugly. This man's grandma made it in a mold and it's old and has a zillion coats of white paint on it. I'm thinking of something with red flowers in it. Maybe impatiens. Dooley

    I have to see this swan as well. Maybe we can take an anonymous poll on whether it is ugly or not :D
