This candy dish was made using several vintage molds. The round sphere design is simple, yet unique. The bottom was made from a medium sized 1970’s planter, it has a nice globe shape that has a smaller foot toward the bottom. The lid was made from an old grease pot mold that had a plain basic knob. So, I cut the knob off and used a 1970’s owl macrame bead and attached it on top. This is a one of a kind piece, only available at Fruitfly Pie.

One of our neighbors beautiful chickens decided to lay her nest right beside our front door. We all had been seeing this chicken making a long run down the dirt road up to our place but didn’t think any thing of it until 3 days ago. I was making tofu inside and I kept hearing our dog Pickle bark. After a while I went outside to see why and there were 3 baby chicks on the ground! They were so cute and fuzzy yellow and they were peeping at their mother who was up above on the brick divider.
I picked them up and placed them back with mom and ran inside to get my camera to take picture.

We thought there were only 3 chicks, but then we found out there were 9! And three more eggs that have not hatched yet.

Swans! They are so graceful and beautiful. This swan was made from an old seventies mold. I am loving the whimsical detail in the feathers and the elegant posture of this planter. Painted in a solid white to give it the original vintage feel, this pot is ready to hold your favorite plants and bring beauty to your favorite space.

I’ve always wanted a bamboo garden. I just love the stuff. A quick search on Ebay for any bamboo lover can get you into big trouble. You can buy all sorts of bamboo, straight from the jungles of far away places. I just had to have some. So I bought Buddha belly, Black Timor, and Moso bamboo. The seeds are the kind from the jungles. I bought them from
exotic-plants-de over on Ebay. They have a bunch listed weekly and have done so for years, so I felt I could trust them. After I bought my seeds, I read online that the rate to grow your own bamboo from seedling is not to high, however, the people I bought mine from give you a website that tells how to grow bamboo, gives tips and gives hope. I am hoping mine will grow and it will be a success! Then, I will have the bamboo fortress I have always dreamed about and my yard will be like heaven. I am worried though, that like the Venus fly trap seeds I bought (from another seller), they may just never sprout. In honor of my love for bamboo and for all of you who love the stuff too. Here is the new bamboo planter.
