Well I'm back outside this week even though the weather isn't cooperating again. Why can we only get two days in a row of sun. I need much more than that. I found these metal plant stands last summer and they're not really old, but I think they have charachter. When stopping at my local nursery last week I came across these great plants with green and white varigated leaves. They are called "Harlequin Creeping Euonymus" and I really liked the foliage.
Well I'm off to my son's 8th grade Graduation this evening. Seems like just yesterday he was starting school. Where does the time go? Wishing everyone a wonderful Wednesday. Enjoy! xoxo K.
The little bench and pillow are wonderful too! Congrats to your son - they do grow up very fast, don't they? ::Jill
ReplyDeleteYour garden bench, pillow and urns look very inviting and oh, so pretty.

What a cute spot Kat! Just like you, I also need much more than 2 sunny days!!!

so funny Kathleen, I remember my 8th grade grad. like it was yesterday. It was a great evening that ended with a big dance for the class.
ReplyDeleteHave fun tonight!
The outside looks fab. even though you say it is not so great out right now. One of these days you have to get some sun up there.
But that rain makes everything so pretty and green.
Those are really neat plant stands! I love them!!! So unique and full of fun details!
ReplyDeleteLove your wonderful garden whites. Congrats on your son's graduating from 8th grade. They do grow up fast!

ReplyDeleteIt was nice to actually be able to visit in person (though briefly) last weekend. Let me know when you'll be over this way...
ReplyDeleteLove all your whites and I don't know what happen but I did something wrong...go figure! I hate when that happens! I look to see if I could start over but didn't see anything so to see my post go to "annaclotandme.blogspot.com" SORRY for the mixup and trouble, if it can be fixed so I can try again PLEASE let me know!
ReplyDeleteThose plant stands are just fabulous, and I love the plant that you put in them too! And I so agree with you on the weather. I have so much painting that needs to be done, but just when things start to dry out, it rains again!
ReplyDeleteHappy WW!
Carol
Your planters are wonderful. Did you make your pillow for your great bench? It all goes together so beautifully!!
ReplyDeleteDebbie@houseattthelake
Your planters are just lovely and foliage flows right with your white scheme. That bench and pillow are just wonderful too. Where did you get your pillow? I have not been in Blogland for awhile, I am sure you all know the answer to the pillow questions, but me LOL.

What an amazing space you have created! You have inspired me to add to my own crafting area.
ReplyDeleteI adore all of your storage solutions.
Your creative space looks like it just came out of a magazine, like Jeanne D'Arc Living for instance. Very much a shabby chic style as we call it over here in Europe.
ReplyDeleteI just love it !!!
Kind regards,
Angelique
Oh my what choice pieces you have in your creative space. I love how you have assembled everything.
ReplyDeleteThanks for inspiring and sharing it all with us.
Simply perfect space! Love all the vintage items you've surrounded yourself with!
