Did you know that the word "cloche," is the french word for bell ?
I have always called them bell jars. And, I love them. I like them inside this victorian terrarium I have several small bell jars and flower frogs and other this and thats.
Here's one housing a little ivy plant that keeps its miniature form.
Don't you just love the green moldy stuff
growing on the clay pot!
I love to feature just a plain shell or sea ornament
underneath a cloche
Whatever you put underneath a cloche instantly becomes important
I love seashells and they look even better underneath the cloche
The versatile cloche can be used to display anything.
Even a birds nest becomes a work of art underneath the cloche!
what's underneath her cloche.....(that didn't sound right either).
Let's go to Marty's and see everyone's cloche displays!
Isn't this fun!!!

I love them, you can never have too many, you are right.
I have a giant one in the center of my dining table.

Too busy with the crowns I guess.
So glad you like yours.

Oooh! I have cloche envy, Sissie! I have just one, but after seeing all of yours, I need to go out & get some more! I just love how you have accessorized yours, and the cloches within the greenhouse thingy (I sure have been using the "thingy" word alot lately) are stunning!
Hey Sissie, You have quite a collection of wonderful cloches. I love all your displays and the terrarium is fantastic. Have a great weekend.

Your cloches are great, but I LOVE that terrarium....fantastic!!
They definitely add a something special to whatever treasures lay tucked beneath. They seem to be very popular right now. I think they are beautiful, especially yours!
I love cloches, but I WANT that terrarium!
