Lion inspiration

Last night I made this little flowerpot very inspired by this old tin tobacco box. I love old tin boxes (and lions, and many other things, as you may know ;-) - look at the patina on the box, very inspiring. So I found some feet, a lions head and tried to reproduce the "mood" by painting in several layers.
So no I have to figure out what kind of flowers to make for the pot, maybe hortensia/hydrangea. A small olive tree would be great, but I don´t know how to make that..

Yet, some more details..

..I recieved a packet in the mail today with a lot of small items that I ordered on E-bay..I´ll show you some more in the next few days.
There was some more stuff for the Orangerie, as I am beginning to plan the next part of the house, the more pottery-and-with-earth-like-part. I got the two small boxes with seeds in the mail and added the two pots, where I have "planted" what was originally red onions, and put a little green shoots in them, so you can see, that things ARE growing right now ;-)
