Hi friends. You know each year as May Day approaches and I post some type of hanging flowers? Well, this year I am posting something hanging….but, flowers? Not so much!
Have you seen the little hanging glass globe terrariums? I have seen them in some of my favorite garden stores, but, because of the price, could never justify actually purchasing one. Then, I saw some online at World Market. They had two sizes – the larger one was $6.99! For these prices, I could purchase a couple! So, I did! I thought they would be great to use for May Day planters.
But, as I started experimenting with them, I found my favorite items to showcase in these containers were not necessarily flowers!
The globes each came with a piece of twine, but it would be easy enough to change out the twine for ribbon. I actually ended up keeping it – I like the natural/rustic feel of the twine.
What to display? Because the containers are small, I found ‘the simpler, the better’ fit my taste.
Today I am sharing a couple of my favorites. May Day this year is less about flowers and more about hanging! So much fun!
I did do one with a few pansy blooms for the more traditionalists out there!
