Berry Bowls

My sweetie loves to buy things at the Holiday Bazaar at his church. This year he brought home an ornament called "Santa Claws." But the purchase we had agreed on before he went were the Berry Bowls--a little terrarium in a vase made with a bed of moss and red partridge berries.

These Berry Bowls are quite festive with red and green. They are very easy to maintain as long as you don't place them in direct sunlight. The make a nice gift during this wintry season. And they last until spring. By which time we've forgotten about them.

 Shopping locally keeps our money in the community. The Christmas Bazaar benefits the church. So these gifts are a double form of generosity.

And Santa Claws is going to be given to someone.  I bet you wish it was you.
