I didn't have a chance to take any new photos for my Show and Tell this week so I thought I would use these photos that have been on my blog in the past to share one of my favorite things in my home. I purchased this silver-plated bowl for only $2.99 at a thrift store last year. I love it because it's so versatile!
I've filled it with many different things...even camellias and floating candles as seen above! Or covered with a cloche as seen below...
It even looks great with shells...
I think this was the best $2.99 I've ever spent!♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
