It's a Cloche Party AND Frugalicious Friday

I am participating in Frugalicious Friday at Janes of Finding Fabulous fame AND The Cloche Party over at Martys at A Stroll Thru Life! I will start with my frugalicious finds...

I found this planter in an antique store and was immediately drawn to it! It was just $4! I also found the butter pats in one of my favorite little shops called Esthers. I just fell in love with them and paid $2 each for them.




I filled it with all kinds of glittering beauties...



LOVE the details. The roping and the little emblem...the feet.....SCORE!!



And now on to the cloche partay!!! My glittery, sparkly snowman....


Sitting in a bed of SNOW! btw it is supposed to snow HERE tomorrow night! We NEVER get snow here! NEVER! It is only supposed to be 1" to 2" but around here that is AWESOME!
I'll believe it when I see it...

My rabbit decked out for Christmas....



He has his key, so he won't be locked out!


A Christmas tree...


Santa.....










Thank you so much for your visit and be sure and check out the other Frugalicious Finds as well as the Cloche Party at Martys! Be prepared to be inspired :)

  6. What a great job you did Lou Cinda on your cloches! The rabbit is so sweet.

    I have to say I am loving the silver planter best of all!! Is it silver or hammered aluminum? That is definitely a keeper!

  9. Oh my you really did find some awesome treasures. I love the silver bowl, it is gorgeous. Your snowman looks like it is really snowing and your Christmas tree as well, then that gorgeous rabbit is just tooooooo cute. Love the santa, and that beautiful gift under the small cloche with the tiny mouse looking on is wonderful. You have created such beautiful cloches and wonderfu vignettes. Thanks so much for joining the party. This is such fun. Hugs, Marty

  10. Hey, Lou Cinda! I love all your cloches, they are SO cute! And the snow always makes it look so wintery and festive. Thank you for stopping by. I adore that silver container you found too, that's a keeper.

    Merry Christmas to you and yours! xo

  11. Oh Sweetie...
    Everything looks positively beautiful. You have so many beautiful cloches I can't decide which one I love most. The one with the rabbit is stunning. He looks so rich inside that glass cloche. Where on earth did you find so many tall ones? They are so hard to find. I also love the Santa one. Isn't he just so Christmas himself?

    Now the one holding the little present is cute too. I love the boxed present look. Is it an ornament? So colorful and it is like sharing with each guest when they walk by, saying "A present just for you."

    Ofcourse I love snowmen so I don't won't to forget your snowman. He looks so antiqued. Love him.

    Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful cloche ideas with me today.

    I have signed up to follow your blog. I can't wait to see what you share next.

    Please stop by and let me share my cloche ideas with you. I would also be so honored if you signed up to follow my blog as well.

  21. So beautiful! I know what you mean about snow. It snowed here today. Big flakes! It finally started to stick around 5pm. And it snowed last year too. Could this be a new trend for South East Texas? It was so pretty. I will post pics next week. Have a great weekend!!!
