I HAD TO HAVE IT................

How cute is this?? While at Tuesday Morning today returning a lampshade I spied these little guys and just had to buy it.....Does that ever happen to you? It just put a smile on my face......I have no idea what it is or what to do with it....I found it in the garden section for $9.99......My first thought was fill it with M&M's....ofcourse I would think that.....But maybe birdseed would be cute.....certainly not a fattening!!! What would you use it for?

    Well my first suggestion would be sending it to me!!!! But beyond that...I can see some cute little herbs growing in there (NOOOO not the kind you smoke!)

    A friend of mine has a similarly shaped dish that she stores her napkin rings in, so that was my first thought! Depending on its size, cloth napkins stacked in it would be handy. It is cute - I'm sure you will think of something. Sally

    It's not big enough for the kind of herbs you smoke, nikki!! And that would holdalotta m&m's. If it was birdseed, you'd have to put it outside. Actually, it's probably what the maker had in mind! But good luck finding something to do with it. It's adorable.

    very cute! I will also go with the m&m idea... you can't have too many;)

    Of course you had to have it! :-)

    If I put M&Ms in it, I would eat them all. No. Self. Control. So I'd have to vote for something that's not edible. Not sure how big it is...Can it be a very fancy soap dish? (OOOO...egg shaped soaps!)

    I like this too. What about peanuts in the shell? I love to have those around. I would eat all of those darn MMs!

    I can see it being used for floating flowers. Like camellias or some other flower that looks nice floating in water.
