I picked up 2 more washbins today. I've got one painted and now to take care of the other one. I really like these because I can easily move them around my yard as I need to with that Oklahoma heat and humidity taking its toll on my semps during the summer. Hurray!

The wash basins reminds me of Eviesmummy and her washbasins filled with semps and fossil-like seashells from way back. Remember those, Lynn?
