Garden Dreams


Spring is in the air, sort of...  It is only 29 degrees and with the breeze feels like 13! Brrr!! 
But a girl can dream.  I have my gardening books out and have lots of plans to expand the back perennial garden and I've been looking at Pinterest for ideas that I can implement in the potential plan.

This is one I love!  Who wouldn't want some succulent coiffed sculpture in the middle of their garden?So Awesome!!!!



This path is simple and so gorgeous.  I love the textural look and color contrast.  Hmmm, can I make this work through the back 40 is the question.  I have some phlox that could easily be divided and propagated for a path...




I could definitely make this, once we cut down the huge pines to open up the light for our side veggie garden.  The hubby has big expansion plans for "the farm" this year!  Yum!!

                 


                      This is so my style, a re-purposed headboard as garden gate.                                                              Love it!




A girl can dream, can't she?
  Ahhh, SPRING!



What are your spring dreams? - Cheers, Kelly

Ideas For DIY Garden Art

Image
These dead trees have burned in patterns. I think this is so amazing! A beautiful succulent topiary lady. This one cracks me up! An old window and some dollar store beads and voila, a shimmering wall hanging. These mosaic columns are made from pvc piping scraps.  Pretty awesome! Got glass?  Now here is a cool reuse, make garden totems. Adorable little gnome house. A bundle of sticks make the base of these simple Zen looking pillars. Love the wabi sabiness of these! Save those lids and caps from your recycling and make a cute owl.  So simple. If you have a bunch of old hardware, bottle caps, hub caps, metal scraps, etc you too can make this fence or wall decoration. STAY GROOVY - Kelly

Barn Mural Revealed

Image
My huge white barn got the royal makeover these past couple of days when my girlfriend came to visit and help me with this massive project. My gal pal hard at work!  She even provided some of the exterior paint.... She rocks! We tried a bit of shading but it just didn't look good.  We ended up covering it up and going with simple clean lines. My bestie, Kelly O.  She worked her ass off and enjoyed every minute of it... Maybe it was the beer! Side angle view. The rest of the white will get a coat of tan to match the house trim. Pretty awesome if I do say so myself.  It turned out better than I thought it would! Thanks to Kelly, not many people would spend their short vacation painting barns for friends, she is amazing and talented.  I love love love the new look!!!!

BEFORE This buffet/sideboard needed a significant attitude adjustment.  I loved the detail on the front but the chipped and peeling veneer was an eyesore....  Ooh, I know just what this needs... AFTER Now with a sophisticated black and white themed look with some sassy red knobs, this could be a multipurpose piece... Think Bar, Buffet, etc etc. Meet my newest creation... "SPEAKEASY". Detail on middle drawers.  Would you like Cabernet or Zin? No bar is complete without the music...(side cabinet door details)
