I have enriched my collection of urns.
Alabaster, from Italy, found at an estate sale one mile from the yellow house.
It was three dollars. Hard to believe. Yes?
I am unsure where to put it because I got another urn at the same sale.
They had a table full of white urns. I think I behaved because I only bought two!
See what I mean? Both have merits. I might flank the stone fireplace with them.
This large urn was from a recent garage sale. Sorry about the glare in the window.
This is a Pottery Barn pillow cover I bought at the same sale. I bought a lot of items in a huge box for twenty-five dollars so that makes this and the large urn just about a dollar each.
I am partying here.
