All that glitters is not gold


I found this in a craft store and couldn't resist taking a photo of it.

All that glisters is not gold
Often have you heard that told
Many a man his life hath sold
But my outside to behold....
William Shakespeare (The Merchant of Venice)

I have a new post on Sharon's Sojourns today.  I'm having a "supreme" experience.

  1. I was starting to feel jealous already comparing your picture to the ones I took yesterday of sunflowers...
    The quote is perfect for your take.

  2. Really very pretty for a fake flower. And I did not know that the original quote was "glisters" rather than "glitters"! (I was never a fan of Shakespeare!)

  6. That old Willie had a way with words. I would have clicked my camera once here too.

  7. What were you doing in a craft store? I would have taken that home with me because I'm sure I wouldn't have had my camera with me.
