Red face I'm sooo goooofy! & cheap ;)

I went to Big Lots a week ago, as some of you mentioned that you found some cool pots with many holes in them for our babies. Well I found a couple, the ones that come in blue and pink. about 4" tall, and 3" or so wide.

But I was just walking around and saw this. I thought heck, It's soooooo cheap!! And I could truly P'off my hubbie, and have these Alllll over the house!! Inside and out, as we have LOTS of windows!!

I just did this for a test, to see how she'd do! Oh, and to get my husband!!!
And Wow!! What a great idear!! As she is growing like a weed in there!! Got my hubbie good too!
He can't stand to see it!!

Very nice Jkelee, like those a lot!

I think you may have figured out a way to get hubby to start thinking about building you that GH or another orchid hotel, afterall!

Now...fill up those windowsills. Chomp chomp!

Swamper, I'm thinking it was about 50 cents. And, I WISH I was a STAR!!!

Sandy, I got me a GH already- FULL, Chid Hotels- FULL. Now I'll just Fill up every window in Da' HOUSE!! He'll see nuttin' but suction cups everytime he looks out a Window!! I told him we have LOTS of Fence to build more Chid Hotels! He says NO MORE! So I'm down to soap holders and windows!

Susanne, Thanks. Glad you likey

Hiker, have fun filling that cart with these handy little things!!

I only bought one, as a test for real. But I'm heading back for more soon, now that I see how happy my baby is in there! It's cheeesy lookin', I know But, A girl's gotta do, what a girl's gotta Do!!

What a great idea I just might have to give it a try too & see what happens at my house. No window sills but might be interesting to put outside on the plant stand. Did you drill a hole in the bottom to let excess water out?

Lorraine, I didn't drill any holes, as there's enough The water on the very bottom evaporates pretty quick I'm sure, as she's stuck on a window, outside under my pool patio. She's happy in there, so I'm not too worried You should hang it on a window, as they have suction cups on the back

Hi Jkelee,

In your photobucket 1st page second row second in 'chids 021' what is the name and where did you get it? Looks like you grow it like a vanda. I like it Your collection is looking really great. I'd hold out for some more fence being converted then you can start your own 'little business' I won't tell!
