A Cute Idea and A Peek

I'm in a cute mood today.  Can you tell what this is?



How about now?



While organizing my hardware, I came across some of my crystal knobs.



I thought they would look cute as tiny crystal vases.  So, I added sprigs of pine.



They're sitting on the gauze on top of my chippy cabinet.  Don't they look like ice?



I'm almost finished with my tree.  Here's a peek.



See ya soon.

  19. Yes, they do look like ice! From the first pic, I thought ice with sticks in it? Then I thought ice with rosemary sprigs? Then I realized they were crystal door knobs but still thought they had rosemary sprigs in them. Oh well, I was close. LOL! They look awesome on display and your tree teaser looks very beautiful and intriguing! xoxo, Leena

  32. Hi, Rosemary. I found your blog after you visited toolsforkitchens and commented on my fruit cake recipe. Your vases are ingenious and gorgeous. At first I thought you carved them out of ice (excellent photography, by the way), but now I see! Thanks for the idea.
