Really nice Chas... Your Potpourri pots inspired me to make a few... I showed them in another thread and tried to give you credit for the idea, but at my age, memory comes and goes and I couldn't find your original post... I haven't seen Catalpa wood since leaving Texas... don't think we have the trees here in Tennessee... my Uncle had a Catalpa tree growing in front of his house... if it's still there it'll be huge now as that was 60 years ago.
