Water Lily

My water lily has had it's first flower of the season.  I love these.  I run out to the pond daily to see if I have a bud starting and then watch it as it blooms.  It's unfortunate that the blooms only last 3 days.  Now I will be running out there all the time, just waiting for the next bud!

eBay find!

I found a lot of paint by number toleware on eBay.  I thought it would end up going high, but I put the first bid on it, $9.99 and waited.  Much to my surprise, I got the lot!  Wow, look at what I got!  And such a deal!
First item is a napkin holder.  It's fab!

This is a wall pocket.  I love that it matches the napkin holder!

Two bookends!!!

These are my first bookends and I love them!

They fold down for storage.

And one bookend without it's mate.

This is a great lot and I think if the seller had taken better photos, they wouldn't be with me now.  The seller had things so lumped together, you couldn't see what you were getting.

See anything special about them?  Not one of them was finished.  Now, maybe that turned people off but I happen to love it!

Would you?

Tell me the truth, would you stop and pick this up when you found it along side the road on a curb?


Isn't it beautiful?  It's huge!  Think of all the word beads I can make out of it.

Okay, truth is, I wouldn't stop and pick it up but I did make my hubby go back for it!  :o)
