I planted this old garden cart last year with phlox, some daffodils and a couple of pots of hyacinths. I'd seen one of these filled at Spring Creek Tea Room on the porch, and the glorious color of delicate blooms came back year after year.
This was taken a few days ago when the last of the daffodil blooms was still fresh.
This was last March, a year ago exactly that I finally put that cart to good use,
instead of just sitting under the deck looking forlorn and neglected.
Take a look at those sad little treadless wheels...
but I think it's happy now, I know it's made ME happy!!
OK, enough about my mediocre green thumb,
let's see what was happening last week:
Maria from Rusty Hinge shares some wonderful photography
and her gorgeous display of branches in her old ice cream bucket!
Carrie from Comfortably Carried Away created this
Bee themed dresser from a Craigs List freebie.
Oh, wait till you see the top!
Home is Where the Boat Is wows me every time,
Take a look at this wonderful post featuring a vintage seed box.
Cindy from Cloches and Lavender creates
an amazing wall hanging out of two table leaves,
You have to see what she started with!
Deserae of Peeking Thru the Sunflowers
shares her love of ironstone with her newest find.
And Daune from Cottage In the Oaks who is my newest sponsor,
shares an amazing take on furniture that is totally functional.
Gotta see what this baby is storing!
