My Guilty Pleasure

O IS FOR?
OLD CROCKS ! ~ this pile made me go oh so positively weak at the knees when opportunely observed on a garden outing this spring. Oh to have been able to take them home with me.

Over to ABC Wednesday where there's an ovation for the letter O!

  1. Oh but judging by the layer of moss they are not actually using them. Surely they wouldn't mind if you took a few home?

  2. Oh me too - they're wonderful, so ful of texture and the tales they'd tell if only they could talk!

  4. Unfortunately, where I come from, the freeze and thaw we get from winter into spring makes quick work of the crockery. My ABC Wednesday is O is for Oracle.

  5. Love this photo. They appear to have been laying there for quite some time, perhaps strategically arranged by garden fairies!

  8. I wish my pots looked as tidy and available as those ones - nothing like a stack of pots to encourage a spot of gardening.

  9. They look beautiful with all that moss - though also in need of a really good clean...

  10. You certainly wouldn't get that effect with black plastic pots that's for sure..

  11. Snap! I love old crocks too. I saw shelves and shelves of them in an old greenhouse at Denmans Gardens recently. I wish I had taken a photo of them but it was just a bit too dark.

  12. What a lovely picture - and a lovely, un-disturbable display.

  15. Totally gorgeous! I'd have been tempted to bring my tent and hang out there...

  16. Love the photo. I have my own collection, but it doesn't look quite as pretty!

  17. I like the old clay and terracotta pots. They're always better for being chipped and weathered.
