This spring/summer it's all about flowers in containers. I'm trying to think of all kinds of ideas to use as a containers (except old shoes, that's just weird). Over the years that I have been in this house, I planted a bunch of perennials.
Perennials I got! The previous owner was just a tad landscaping happy and planted a ton as well. I have transplanted a bunch of flowers and when I first attacked the garden, I ripped out what I thought were weeds! Oops! Lately, I've been lucky in finding containers in curbside trash (yes, I am trash picking). So far, I've picked up an old metal pail, 2 plastic urns and a metal plant stand. The plan is to paint the urns lime green, and the plant stand and metal pail an orange. Those are the colors I am using to decorate the
sunroom, so it ties all together. My garden is already home to an old wash stand, 2 metal watering cans, and LOTS of terracotta planters. Also I did a project a few years ago, making the planters look like they are "
spilling" out flowers (
like this). It really is that cute!
Now if only this weather would get me in the mood to do all these projects!!!
