One Potted Plant = Three Sweet Memories


- The Christmas Cactus was given to me by my husband when we were dating (~10 years ago) - it blooms every year just not necessarily at Christmas time.

- The white iron/wire basket was a gift shop find while we were on a romantic weekend getaway in Ogunquit, Maine (our hotel overlooked The Marginal Way)

- The painted ceramic pot was purchased at one of our first trips to the Brimfield Fair (it's full of cracks and peeling paint which is why I love it so much)!

Hi Diane,

what a nice idea to put the pot in a wire basket. And I love the idea of having three memories in one thing! Can't hardly believe that your cactus has now been living for 10 years, wow, not possible in our house :-)))) But why were you given a cactus when you started dating???? That's pretty funny!

Wish you a wonderful week!
Birgit

I love your white chippy pot and love that you put all three together. I would not even attempt a Christmas cactus. I am sure I would kill it! Lol
Blessings~
