Thanks Marty,
at A Stroll Thru Life,
for having another cloche party!!

Here is my only new one right now.

From this...
Outdoor lamp

To this...
Nest Holder
Real nest I found in Cottonwood branches.
leaves and fluff added,
and put into this outdoor porch lamp from
a garage sale.

Hope to have more for you before the party is over.
Thanks for hosting Marty!!

    Barbara Jean...that is just so clever. I love anything to do with birds or nests. Who in the world would have thought to do something like that with an old..porch lantern~! Probably, no one but you! VERY clever! It's beautiful!

    You are so creative. I love your Cloche/Light fixture. That is just the best idea. I also posted my Apothecary Jar on my blog and mentioned you. Blessings, Vicky

    What a clever idea, Barbara! I'm new to cloches and wouldn't have thought of repurposing a lantern, even though I like them better than glass domes. Thanks for the inspiration!
