Monday Marketplace #11

Hi Everyone, hope you had a great weekend,
and that you have some fun items to share today.
Remember the link is up all week, so be sure and come back by
to check on what's been added throughout the week.


Here are a few items from last week,


3 Large Vintage Aqua Ball Jars from ArtJoyStuff

and hey, some more cool jars...

Set of 4 Hazel Atlas Refrigerator Jars
from Vintage Goodness

Wonderful Handmade Hessian Cushion from Jeannette O'Donnell

Vintage Robin Egg's Blue from My Soulfull Home

(oh my gosh, these are so cute!!)

and a Union Jack Pillow from Drop Cloth Design Co.
made of...drop cloths!!! so cool!

OK, time to link up to three items 

from your Etsy or Online Boutique or Website.

Please try to link to the individual item if possible.

And I'd love for you to grab the Monday Marketplace button

 for someplace on your blog, to let other's know.

A few people have mentioned that the thumbnail pics look blurry. I think that's because Etsy requires smaller pixel photos. I'm pretty sure that instead of choosing the photo that comes up on the link you can choose "web" and go to your Picture hosting site and click on it there. I've tried it in the past and my thumbnail was much clearer.  Since you can delete your thumbnail link, feel free to try it if you'd like. AND You don't have to have a blog to join in, everyone is welcome!

Thanks so much for joining in,

Have Fun!

Outdoor Pillows...cheap, cheep

Hubbs and I have been in full clean-up mode outside this weekend. Earlier this last week, I stained the upper deck off the sunporch. It gets tired looking, so a coat of semi-transparent stain from Olympic helps to freshen it up. It took me two days because we didn't move everything downstairs, I just scooted it from one side to the other. I still haven't done the stairs, that's a job for this week.

But my fun find yesterday was these super cute birdie pillows at Lowes for a super cute price...less that 12 dollars each. They had several colors of the bird pillows; this green, tan, chili pepper, and navy. I wanted something bright that would pop against the white vintage chair set.

I'm also armed with white spray paint

 for a fresh-up coat for these babies.

(these chairs are soooo comfortable!)

Yes, that's my chipmunk barrier with brick pavers (around the pool). They are crazy little critters that chase each other this time of year, and unfortunately can't see that they're running straight for the pool. 

...and then I really went out on a retro limb with these outdoor pillows. I've had these motel chairs for several years. I've given up on repainting them. Besides I love the rusty patina! That's an old sink set onto a sewing machine base...talk about rust...

I'm still working on getting my containers filled,

love this one with marigolds, petunias, and mini zinnias.

It gets full sun, so I have to make sure and water it everyday,

and shoo away the rabbits.

My potting bench clean up is still in progress. My tools and gardening goodies have migrated this Spring and I'm still trying to track them down. Those are just orphaned dresser drawers on the shelf for storage.

This is under the sunporch, and it's the "junk pile" all winter 

where we store all the outside furniture. 

The pool is going from green to blue as we speak, 

it always takes a few days to "clean up", as we have a mesh pool cover,

which unfortunately lets in tree debris and yuck throughout the off season.

More backyard photos when that's looking better!

Hope you're having a wonderful Sunday,

see ya tomorrow for
