First time back to the garden centers!
Great rewards for my exposure therapy
Just couple it with retail therapy
&
Gardening!
Building our Garden Beds
&
Rooms
Is going to require a few bits more
Than the volunteer plants
Which there are many
&
The clearance sale bag o bulbs
We have so much space to fill!
The first tulips I’ve ever grown!
Remarkably good results!
Trying more varieties next!
This old cedar chest
Has been with me for years
Now
It has been an amazing planter!
There are large fabric pots
Inside there
Holding things tight
To make it last a bit longer
This is the third season so far…
The “Faux-zebo”
Or
“The Arches”
Once was a fire pit area
in a
Cathedral of trees…
Until
The trees
Showered
The ground
In every storm
With
Javelin branches
Demolishing chairs
The chairs
Where we had sat
Sometimes
Just hours before…
And as this lil set up was built
After we had nearly 100 trees removed
Just a few years ago
Three times since those trees were taken
We have had other
Branches and trees
SMASH
Through the arches
Breaking planters
Etc…
I spent some time
Last week repairing some planters
&
You can see
On the lower left
There’s
A kink
In the front arch
From last Decembers
Nor’easter
Just as I finished
Replacing all of
The broken lights
BAM!
Two brand new sets of lights…
Easy come
Easy go
But
We have these random bouquets
Of violets
&
Wild strawberries
All over this year
I think
That makes us even
Right
The amount of ferns is insane this year
The azure bluet
Is spreading
And the materials we’ve gathered
To make up the raised
Hugelkutur beds
With tons of goodies
Composting in
Filling gaps
Where there won’t be soil or plants yet…
One of the local nurseries has this…
It’s been on my list for a long time!!!!
And we’ve been looking at getting new chairs…
My old set of wicker chairs
That I bought vintage
Almost 20yrs ago
Have been slowly falling apart
&
I’ve been putting glue and paint
New cushions
And covers
Most of the fixes were easy
But Now
It has gotten to the point
Where the paint won’t stick
&
There’s nothing to glue
Or screw
Things back together to…
The ones above
Have the perfect legs!
Won’t sink into the ground etc…
Weather proof material
Perfectly comfortable…
Fingers crossed that they’re still available
When we’ve saved up for them!
I mean…
If money were no object…
Imagine that?
Thanks Pinterest
Lol
I’m good with just my
Wonky
Shabby
Fauxzebo
Lol
I really should not
Be placing
Pinterest photos
Next to my garden pics…
Oy!
I’ve got a lot of work to do…
Better get my gardening hat on!
Finish my coffee
&
Get out there…
