Here are my two purchases I made at Sparks, Kansas. A big wooden spoon for $2.00 and a butter paddle for 50 cents. Even though I only came home with 2 things, I do like my little treasures.
Been doing some things outside today. Picked up a couple of Boston Ferns for my patio.
Planted some Morning Glory seeds. They were so pretty last year.
This little chair was in the basement of our church during the flood. It used to be pink. I cleaned it up and painted it black.
Hung a wreath and repainted my little sign. The letters on it were so faded you couldn’t read it anymore.
Got out my wind chimes although I really shouldn’t call them that. I bought them last year because I just loved the little pots and pans and I still do it’s just that I don’t love the clanging noise they make. Talk about a racket! I clearly wasn’t thinking on this one. They are certainly not the soothing sound of your regular chimes. So I hung them right up against the lattice so that they hopefully won’t clang around too much!
I saw a picture in a magazine and wanted to give it a try. I planted a Vinca vine in this basin and then put an old egg basket on top. It’s suppose to grow up and out the egg basket, although I should have bought 2 instead of just one, again, not thinking. I will have to pick another plant up so it will be fuller. We’ll see how it does, something different anyway.
I had some help this morning. Paley was giving me pointers on how to do things.
Last but not least, I wanted to share with you the pretty flower I got at church for Mother’s Day.
Until next time,
Mindy
