Joanne Mason on Dec 28, 2015These ideas really put a smile on my face, and gave me the fortitude to make it to spring. You are so very creative, I so wish I has this kind of talent - I find that I wind up sort of copying other's ideas. I have a knee replacement coming up in Feb. and during recovery I can plan out my containers, and then be ready to get going on them in late March or early April. Thanks again for the inspiration!
