Lady Pen‘s poem Pennies from Heaven gave me the inspiration for my belated contribution to last week’s Weekly Photo Challenge.
We consume a lot of olives in our household and because it seems a shame to throw all the olive jars into the recycling, we have converted a few into repositories around the house for any stray silver coins – a fund for future weekends away.
Thanks, Pen! 😀

What a good idea (and they look great!) 😉
Thanks 🙂
’tis a pleasure bb, … and a good idea methinks… Money Jars… (mayhap bb won’t notice Pen borrowing 3rd jar in from the left.. .for her collection!! 😉 ) … Hope you’re having a Happy Easter break… xx
Hehe. Thx, Pen – hope you had a good long weekend 🙂
Future tense
future pence
common sense!
I loved this BB, Thank you
John
And I love your rhyme, John 😀
Future in a jar! I love it 🙂
A future I can see 🙂 Thx, Jacquie.
It adds up quickly to a nice sum in just a few months….future treats, current satisfaction of seeing it grow….
Yes, love watching them fill up 🙂 Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
Wonderful! And I love the black and white, BB.
Thanks, Monica – are you looking forward to spring? 🙂
Very much, Bluebee. At the same time it’s hard to get my head around the fact that you are turning to fall and then winter. If we don’t experience it, we don’t know it, I guess.
Great idea! I can remember once putting all the cents together to buy fritte in Belgium! So it does come in handy
Hi 🙂 My dad used to call it milk money. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
i can imagine how well this works … surprising how those small coins add up, and look so pretty in their jars … nice shot in b&w 🙂
Amazing how the 5s and 20s accumulate. Thanks, Christine 🙂
really cool photo and goes great with the title – haha 🙂 (my interpretation of the title – if you have to live on the change, than your future could be a little tense) 😉
Hahaha – ain’t that the truth?! Thanks, Gabe.
The light shining off the glass is very interesting, BB. Nice photo…
Thanks, Sued51 – hope the future’s as bright 😉
beautiful photo, I love the greys and the rythm.
Thanks, Benedicte 🙂
Looks too organized for me…I have an old tin pitcher that I throw everything into…to be sorted later. 🙂
We had a similar “system” but it drove me nuts 😉
The best kind of recycling is the kind where you get money out of it 😉
For sure – do you think we can sell our teabags? 😀
As eye coolers! Good idea 🙂
a bank of bottle 🙂
yes 😀
Good idea – as long as you spend it! I had a giant bottle full of coppers and silver, but then they changed our money and I was too embarrassed to take it to the bank, lol!
Hahaha. There’s always Unicef – I’m sure they would be happy to sort it
Lovely way to keep one eye on the future! 😀
