Pots of silver?

cherydee

I've seen the thread running about pots of gold........what do you do with them ? Do you use them as place settings at the Christmas dinner table for everyone ?

For my pots of gold we've spray painted plant pots which actually looks quite good (if i must say so myself :P)

I did see these though:

Also in my pots of gold... we're putting in christmas tree seeds, which we're then putting in gold organza bags (which i'm sure they must do in silver). We're buying the seeds and the organza bags of ebay. It sort of fit as we're putting them in plant pots lol

**skinnyminny**

you could pop in a couple of 20p coins???

Hi again! I bought some pots today, the homebase ones were too big so ended up getting some nice glass tumblers with a pattern on them which I'll fill with silver things, liking the idea of 10 & 20ps & silver choccy coins but not really sure what else also wondering what else I can put in for my LO, he's only 1 so will put coins in for his money box but would be nice for him to have something in there but what?

No cherydee, they are usually wrapped in clear cellophane and given as gifts to hard to buy for people (especially men!:)), link here

What about a little bell in your son's? Usually easy to find this time of year as tree decorations. Or a silvery bouncy ball maybe if he's not one to put everything in his mouth. :-D
