I've been in love with myrtle topiaries for like, forever. You see them in all those yummy photo shoots of farmhouse kitchens. And I wanted one for myself. A real one.

 

But they were always too expensive.  Recently I was lucky enough to find one for a reasonable price at, of all places, an antique mall.   

 

And here she is.

 

 

Don't you just love the mossy clay pot?  I placed her on a silver stand for effect.

 

What do you keep on your kitchen counters?  I don't have a very green thumb at all but for some reason I really felt the need to go with this.

 

I added a vintage, chippy lamp to the mix and I was hooked. 

 

My baby tears is still gong strong, too.

I also added in my Goodwill faux boxwood topiary as well as my Antique Farmhouse boxwood wreath hanging in the window.

 

I think it creates a warm feeling that you can only accomplish with the green stuff.

 

What do you think?
