Photo of Broken Candle Stand + Harvest Basket = I like it!

Saw this idea on an old episode of A Gardener's Journal. The gal used an antique floor lamp base and a harvest basket.

I happened to have a cast iron candle stand that had places for 4 little pots around the central large candle holder. It took a header a couple of years ago in a wind storm and has been relegated to the shed ever since. One of the pot arms had broken off.

I removed the large center candle holder and one of the arms that held two little flower pots. Topped it off with a harvest basket bolted through the top of the stand.

Filled with spaghnum moss and potting soil, a fuschia, spider plant and English ivy. So I like it, what ya think?
