Decorating the entryway.

I found this beautiful pot holder around a year ago. I had it in storage until now. It was high time to put it in its place by the front entry. I had also bought a peace pipe for the shelf unit. Looks not bad if I do say so myself.

Looks nice. Pot holder you say? Any special type wood? All those canes/walking sticks are great.

Oh?

I see!

The artist did not tell me the type of wood...just that she made it for plants. Me, I saw it for something else.

OH, potted plants. I was thinking pots, as in, cooking pots, not what pfrsantos was thinking, tho thats pretty funny seeing how you put a pipe on it

I was going for a native american theme...or at least that is what first came into my mind when I saw the 2 beautiful buffalo and hoof print carvings.

Oh...paint me slow. Now I get it. That was the last thing on my mind.

Its a lovely carved piece. The pipe works well with it especially with the theme of the carvings.

Very cool entryway decor, Chako!

Now, next up, maybe something, that isn't a white rubbish bin, to hold those gorgeous walking sticks and canes?

An antique cut-open copper/brass fire extinguisher is a personal fave of mine for canes, umbrellas, and walking sticks. Though, you would need two or three of them.

this gives me a few ideas

I did have a nice metal decorative vase but I soon outgrew that quickly. I bought the white plastic bin because it fit perfectly in the spot and it was also snow proof...as I do not have a mud room. The plastic is ideal as it won't harm the canes and staves.
