A Breath of Heaven


Hi Everyone
Happy Tuesday

Have you heard of this beautiful plant it is called
Breath of Heaven

{Love}
the little pink flowers


Don't you just love the name
I wish you could smell
this post too
because the flowers smell amazing so
clean and fresh
We have planted Breath of Heaven all around the
front and backyard

I put a few sprigs in these adorable
white milk glass jars


I know that you have seen these little jars before
{Love}
to use them for so many things to me they are a
true treasure



{Love}
the aluminum tops

I love to put flowers in them and even
little paper parasols at parties

These jars are J.R. Watkins jars
Did you know that the company is still in business?
Unfortunately
They don't make the milk glass jars anymore

If I find these jars
I always know
they are going
to come
home
with
~me~
They are an inexpensive little luxury
I found some in a free box at a flea market


I have some cute ideas for these jars for
Easter
I can't wait to show you

Have a wonderful Tuesday

  5. I love your milk glass jars. I've been looking for some for years, and I haven't found one yet.

    Guess what? I use some Watkins products. They have the best flavor extracts.♥
