In the last six years I have been to Cuba five times, and to Honduras and El Salvador once each.  We love the beach holidays when the winter gets cold here in Canada.  I inevitably collect seashells, although I don’t really know why.  I have them stashed all over the place – mostly hidden away.  As you can see, this pretty blue compote serves as one of those storage containers.  See the big sand dollar in the foreground.  It’s very cool!

I have another Teardrop compote in green.  It’s smaller, but also made by Indiana Glass.

This compote comes in many, many different light and dark colours and finishes – carnival, frosted/satin, clear, iridescent, etc.  I like this shade of blue.
