Some other small vessels I like to use are play tea sets of which I have a small collection, test tubes and old tiny laboratory stuff and I just thought of a new one I am going to exploit soon for dried flowers. I will save that one for my blog in the near future.Margie Oomenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01459762796958425287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6777506989220366832.post-63089756299623458872008-08-25T13:14:00.000-04:002008-08-25T13:14:00.000-04:00These are sooo cute!!

It just makes every day more of an adventure, doesn't it, looking for the whimsy around us? You really have to peer carefully at life to appreciate the miniature.

You can see some on Etsy here: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5058480<BR/><BR/>Small things appeal to me too, probably because I'm being baraged with tiny, sweaty, smashed handfulls of dandelions, weeds and leaves on a daily basis from my two year old after her nature walks.
