These two urns are cast iron from the mid to the late 19th century. We found one at a flea market in Long Beach. And the other in a shop called Sisters in Redlands Ca.
They do come in two peaces so it is easier to transport. But being they are cast iron they are still heavy. But beautiful to enjoy and look at.
In this one I placed roses in it but I hope the heat from the sun and iron doesn't cook them.
Well thanks for visiting today. And I hope you all enjoy being in your garden also...Julian

ReplyDelete"Beautiful" ..as usual ..I love how you used the moss to look like a water fountian ..Is that store bought moss or do you get it off the trees? .. we have tons of it here on our Oak trees ..I just need a grandkid to climb them and bring me some ..lol ..I will be copying that idea in my yard for sure ...You're always an inspiration...thanks :^)

The urns make a great statement in the yard, better than planting a tree and blocking the view. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThose urns are so gorgeous, and add so much personality to a garden! I would LOVE to find one to add to my garden too!
ReplyDeleteHappy VTT!

Gorgeous urns. They do give your garden an elegant look, don't they? Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous urns and the moss looks wonderful cascading from the urn. My husband says I never buy anything light. Even the movers commented they had never had so many heavy pieces in one move!
