French canning jar and baby's breath...

Do you remember me mentioning that my husband handed me a little fun money
 to go antiquing on a recent trip to the coast?

I bought this old enamelware chamberstick and these pieces of ironstone.

At the same antique mall, one booth had some antique french canning jars
 made of lovely blue green glass.

The price tag was $125 each!

When I got home, I found the same kind of antique french canning on this etsy shop,

for $19.50!

The shop owner got the jars from an old farmhouse in Le Mans, France.

I told her which one I wanted and she shipped it to me and I received it in only a couple of days.

It's about 10 1/2 inches tall, big enough to hold a good sized bouquet.

I get more pleasure out of using this jar that some french farmer's wife used to can her fruits and vegetables in
 to hold my flowers, than the fanciest and most expensive vase.

I grouped the antique jar with a couple of new edition green glass Ball canning jars,

and filled them all up with just one $4 bunch of baby's breath.

It makes me smile.
