Adding Summer Freshness to Your Home for FREE!

I suffer from a common Summertime disease that many of you may also share.
I have O.C.D. Yep, I a bad case of it this time of year. "Obsessive Clipping Disorder." With my gardening clippers in hands, I have managed to fill a number of vases and containers around my home with fresh ivy, grapevine and assorted greenery. And best of all, it didn't cost me a single penny. As in FREE! The next time you want to add some Summer Freshness to your home, shop your yard. Add 2-3 kinds of branches, some ivy or grapevine, honeysuckle...whatever is available seasonally. Just avoid the poison ivy. While its a pretty vine, it will not be so pretty on your body. Take a look at the small Breakfast Table Vignette I created because of my O.C.D. Enjoy!
