  • Just spray painted this wood chair with Valspar's (Lowes) very light aqua color. It's my new favorite color.

I just found a rusty porcelain tub at a sale for $2.00 so of course, I had to plant it. I used some of my dishes from my stash and planted them with Allysum, Moss Rose, Verbena and ...»
Violets. I put gravel in the bottom of the teapot and teacup for drainage. I also drilled holes in the bottom of the tub.Still debating if I should spray paint the tub with a pastel color.

It's A Peony Parade

I love this time of year when the peonies are blooming, the sun is shining and everything is right with the world. OK, these plants really, really put me in a good mood! ...»

I have three of them so far and am going to pick up one or two more this weekend. The ONLY downfall to these plants is that the blooms get so stinking big that they tend to fall over, but I have peony rings around them to keep them as upright as possible.

  • This bicycle is just too cute!  I wanted to buy it and take it for a ride right then and there!
  • To say I had "FUN" this weekend would be an understatement!
  • This rusty chair was so fantastic!  I can just imagine the stories it could tell!
  • Loved the chippy factor on this table!
  • These gears and spigots are just some of the coolness that was available for purchase at the market!
  • Getting to meet Karen (The Graphics Fairy), Miriam from Hometalk, and Donna (Funky Junk Interiors) was such a special moment!

  • Succulent Gardens are easy to create and super easy to care for.
  • We used PVC pipe and cut it at an angle
  • Spray painted with stone paint
  • Fill with pea gravel for drainage and soil. Then planted the succulents.
  • Some of the plants were also planted in the ground.
  • Since there were some questions about Indoor Succulent Gardens, I thought I would add a photo of the one we created for indoors. They do great indoors.
