Pears, Pears, Pears

Not sure how it happened, but somehow I ended up with a bunch of pear accessories.  It's sort of ironic, considering I am a teacher and used to have dozens, if not a hundred, apple things in my house.  Fortunately the country-hunter-green-buffalo-plaid and apples decor faded with the 21st century.

Now I have pears.  

The first came to me like this:

Unfortunately I dropped the bag coming into the house, and the lid broke.  A little superglue and it was good as new.  Well, as long as I covered it up, which I did... similar to the one in Ballard.

I did the twine wrapping in two sections so as to make the jar actually usable.  I also added two burlap leaves with a piece of string.

Here it is together.

Isn't it cute?

I found the "glittery" pears and the pear-shaped basket at the thrift store.

And more.

These guys have been in these pedestals since March!  Green seems to be a universal color... works in many seasons and holidays.

Okay, now this is CLUTTERED... I sort of put all my pears out here for the photo.  Gotta figure out where to put some things, but look... pears!
