Another Completed Pinterest Project....


A while back I found this on Pinterest:

For flowers next to the kitchen sink/window!

I thought it would be great next to my kitchen window to hold flowers.

The Hubs "found" this owl plant hanger somewhere.
He is made out of cast iron .
And was black,
but I painted him white.
If you know me , you will find this funny,
cause I do not like predatory birds.
Owls are predatory birds.
But I thought he was kinda cute and would work well with this project.

I took an old Atlas jar.
Wrapped  some copper jewelry wire around the rim.
Created a little loop on the back side of the jar to hang it on the hook.


Then filled it with some colorful fresh flowers from the grocery store.


I think it hangs out a little farther than I like.
I think it's because the hook is made for a hanging plant.
I may try a smaller bottle instead of a jar.

If you look at the original post,
you will see you used a shorter hook.
thecreatedhome.blogspot.com  used hers to hold chalk by her chalkboard.
I think the possibilities are endless.
And I thank her for her inspiration !

Here he is playing peek-a-boo....

 Another successful Pinterest project...
I think anyway.
If you would like to follow my Pinterest boards, I would just love it :)

  1. That is DARLING! I would love to do this in my kitchen but we have so little wall space. :( Sigh...I guess I really can't have everything. :)
    Thanks so much for sharing this for Fresh-Cut Friday. It was the perfect post. :)
