I have never seen anything like this and it is so cute ! .. do they function for very long or is it a temporary mini garden ?
Truly a BIG smile maker this morning girl ! THanks : )
if you put a little damp sphagnum moss in the bottom of the thimble and then a bit of soil I think these could stay healthy and happy for a while. probably just need to mist with distilled water often.
are they real thimbles, andrea?
do tell.
i love them.

This is too sweet. I inherited some antique thimbles from my granny. I have to try this in them.

Robin – yep, they appear to be.
Elaine – you must! I am going to nick some thimbles from my MIL, who has hundreds laying around.
Joy – I hadn’t seen anything like it, either. I adore them.
Lauren – thanks for the info, and for leading me to discover your site!
Crafty – :) I love sites that combine two loves – like crafting and gardening.
