Cloches and Such

If you haven't seen this month's Better Homes and Gardens magazine go right now and get a copy! Not only does it have two great recipes I will be trying out this week (Lemon caper tuna and shrimp with peppers and corn) but it has some amazing holiday decorations! I've never been a very enthused holiday decorator so I need all the inspiration I can get. I noticed that these little cloche guys were popping up all over the decorating section of the mag. Twice they had a bouquet of Christmas flowers under them and another time they housed a grouping of ornaments.

(Like this)

And what did I just so happen to spot a couple weeks ago at my favorite Marshalls? A BIG cloche for $20 you might guess? Yep, the one that's now sitting on my dining room table waiting to be Christmas-fied.

Left over Thanksgiving stuff under him right now.

He's a big boy. I imagine a red table clothe,

a mini Christmas tree and

some shiny ornaments under him

in the near future.

My other great Marshalls finds:

$20 cake stand and

some fierce birthday shoes
