I just love cloches…when my mom was at my home over Christmas, she got tired of me talking about cloches…she calls them bell jars. I was so excited when I made my first cloche.
I found all these cloches in one antique mall today here in Columbia.
Lots of different shapes and sizes! I now have five cloches, Sarah gave me this one…I paired it with a white ironstone footed dessert plate.
It has been fun to create little vignettes to go under the cloches.
I crocheted a tiny birds nest to go with some sea shells…
This cloche without a knob on top was $3 at the Goodwill store. It came over an atrocious wind up plastic clock, but the cloche is glass. I re-donated the clock! :)
This little guy is a votive holder upside down. I glued on an interesting pinkish glass knob from Hobby Lobby ($1 on sale and some more off because it was broken--there was no screw to attach it to a drawer).
So, this is what I have done today…played with cloches!
I even have a Pinterest board that is full of cloches!
This little dude is now sitting on my kitchen window sill…love it there.
I am linking to these wonderful parties!

These are great! I love cloches too! They can be so expensive, so when you see one you like for a great price, grab it!!
I love cloches too! I have found a couple at garage sales and flea markets that are cool! I'm not that good with creating the vignettes underneath tho. ;^)
