JB does major flower installations at some of Baltimore's museums and top events, so the scale of his things is HUGE. 
JB also has a green thumb, as evidenced by the window boxes on his classic townhouse. He has a huge urn in front of his house where I noticed some white eggplants growing.
But I did manage to find a few things, including some julep cups, an etched vase and some silk peonies that I had to touch to find out whether they were real.
These acid green ceramic vases would be perfect for summer flower arrangements. 
These acid green ceramic vases would be perfect for summer flower arrangements. There were several of these huge paintings of starlets. They were probably used as props for a party.
These cranberry glass vases could also be used to hold a pillar candle. 
A huge assortment of candlesticks of all heights and styles. I have several of these which were gifts from friends. 
Another candle holder... he bears the weight of a single candle on his shoulders. Are you sensing a theme here? 
A chandelier for candles. If I had a big tree in my back garden, you can bet I would have purchased this. 
Tag sales, yard sales, antique and thrift shops are all good ways of being green.Read about other great thrifty treasures on Southern Hospitality!
gorgeous! I love shopping vicariously through you!
ReplyDeleteThe green shade the woodwork is painted is one of my favorites - I never could decide just what color green it is!
ReplyDeleteYou do make me laugh - the header is delightful. I have wanted something like that for the pear tree in the back but with each storm we seem to be losing it in sections. It may be gone before I find one.
ReplyDeletethis looks like it was a really fun sale!
ReplyDeletelove his townhouse and the window boxes.
i adore the new header! love where you put the title. hehe!!!! you are the best !!! always!!!
ReplyDeleteSome of my favorite things I've found have been in thrift stores and tag sales, from designer labels with their tags still on, to gilded picture frames for a mere song. These things had a life before landing in my hands, and are endlessly fascinating compared to the blandly beautiful things one comes across in most box stores. Thank you for reminding us of this rich legacy we have by seeing beauty in older things1
ReplyDeleteRita... i love the idea of being green by recycling, or if you do something new with the item, up-cycling.
