Introducing “Outdoor Wednesday”
I Love Flowers....I found this cute little plant stand at a craft show...My flowers have gone wild and I love it!
My patio...My trellis has finally took off. I can't wait for it to bloom. I put red lights everywhere this year, on my front porch grapevine and on the patio trellis and garage.
A cute little sign I got at a flea market.I have it hanging by one of the original screens from the house from days gone by.
My privacy fence and old kitchen sink I used for potting that came from an old farmhouse. It gets better and better each year with rust...hehehe.....I love the patina.....
We got rid of our eye sore of a hot tub and this is what we put in its place. I kind of want to put one of those old glider couches from back when if I can find one or maybe a hammock but this will due until then.
My pink/red chairs..they are my favorites....
I have two of these large pots which give it a more tropical feel.
I love vintage containers for planters and used this old ice chest.
More flower pots.....
The garage off the patio...is just more landscape and purpose also.
My tubs gone wild!
The little wooden chair....
The side of the garage.....all decked out. I'm thinking of painting my garage red!...
My Mom and dad had this big old cast iron pot..I don't know if they made soap maybe in it in the old days but I utilize it in my landscaping...

Have a Great Wednesday! A Friend from the Heart :)

Lisa, your yard is so cute. Love it! You've given me some ideas. Granted, I only have a balcony, but I do love container plants and flowers, so thanks for sharing the photos. :-) Marcia

Your yard is so cute. I just love all of your vignettes.
Your old kettle was probably used for making apple butter. I have one and my Grandma and great aunt used it every fall.The apple butter making was a three day project. First day they peeled. Second they cooked and stirred that old kettle all day over an open fire in the back yard. Third day the apple butter was canned. Good memories!!!!
