For the Mom

Another wonderful project made by joesmom over on the chat forum.

Great use for old cups and plates.

She made these as mothers gifts but they would be wonderful anytime.

I am still waiting to hear if there glued or drilled and screwed.

They would be cute as African violet planters as well as dried flowers.

Wonderful job Lynn / Joesmom
