My Bloomin' Weekend

I think I finally have my back deck in shape. I re-stained the stairs this week after dropping a full gallon of it in the garage and having a huge mess to clean up. Thank the good Lord I had a full container of paint thinner on hand. So two hours later I finally got started on the project at hand.

Just wanted to share these little flower vignettes that I have out here. This is right off the sunroom and looking out my kitchen window, so I need some "pretty" to look at.

This old iron railing in chippy white was a recent flea market find,

(a 10 dollar deal)

I have several pieces of old fencing out here, 

and then the white gate behind the table.

 I left these photos as is because the pinks were so vibrant I didn't want to change the photos. The two potted ones in the old cement containers are million-bells.

My favorite Garden Lamb

 I think someone or something has been having this one for lunch...

Hope you enjoyed your Mother's Day, 

Se you tomorrow for
