Colour pots

I love colour, and I love fresh flowers which includes winter bulbs, so when we were out earlier today I nipped into the garden centre to buy a few more hyacinths and some cyclamens. I wanted to pot them into some containers to have around the house.

For the first potting I used a soup tureen that I’d bought at a marché des puces. I’d never intended to use it for soup, as it was too crackled, but it makes a great bowl for bulbs.

I then put the cyclamens into a copper fish kettle, and used some of the moss I had left over from my Christmas foliage to cover the tops of them both. It really finished them off well.
