The occasion was the naming ceremony for our newest granddaughter.
You probably know that I like to look for garden 'stuff' at garage sales. So after the event we were driving back to our son's home when we passed a garage sale, and of course I couldn't resist. I trotted down the driveway in my sari and the reward was.....
4 pretty glass balls for my stock tank. It was in need of a little pizazz to go along with the floating islands. And the bonus was they were in a large pewter bowl. I was too busy looking at the glass balls and the $2 price tag, to examine the dirty old bowl, but when I looked later I saw it said Nambe. What a find.

You scored! I've found a lot of people don't know what they have. Good for us!
ReplyDeleteWhat a score--that does add a wonderful touch to the water garden. And what a terrific family photo-- you guys look so happy. And what beautiful clothing.
ReplyDeleteThose glass balls are almost (almost!) as colorful as you are in that stunning sari. I'm with Sue - that is an adorable family photo. Happy day all around...
ReplyDeleteIt's chihuly in your back yard! That's wonderful!
ReplyDeleteGreat finds! I'm surprised the seller didn't up the price when he/she saw your fancy garb.
ReplyDeleteYou three are absolutely darling! And yes, what a great find! And congratulations on the new member of the family.
ReplyDeleteI love your beautiful Indian clothes! And I love the idea that you garage saled in your sari. What is Nambe, though?
ReplyDeleteIf only I knew how to wrap the sari! Nambe is a type of metal wear. They sell it at Breeds.
DeleteA great find for $2! I love your sari - very pretty! You sure don't see too many people at garage sales dressed like that... :)
