Pretty Posies



There is nothing like a bunch of pretty posies for a pretty price to make a girl smile. Take a gander at these lovely roses that I picked up at my local Trader Joe's for at steal at just $5.99.

Don't they look so pretty in my new, vintage Fenton Hobnail planter. I purchased this planter from Jen at My Milk Glass Shop on Etsy. If you like vintage milk glass then this is the place to shop, Jen has a lot of options at a great price, plus she is so wonderful to work with. I plan to visit and purchase often as I begin the long process of up-dating my home.

Speaking of new things for the home :) Check out the new Cottage Collection pillow from Sweet Things. It's the Sweetheart pillow, made from a vintage handkerchief and 100% natural linen.

My Garden

Happy Monday all you sweet people :) We had some sunshine finally this weekend so I thought I would get out into my yard and take a photo of the garden decoration that I picked up in Royal Oak at the Antique show.

Isn't it pretty! I just love the green glass but it makes it hard to see from far away so I may have to move it somewhere else in the yard so I can see it more clearly.  You can kind of see my white hydrangeas in the photo too, these were a gift from my brother's new back yard which is overloaded with too many beautiful flowers. I am very happy that they seem to be doing well in their new home, and I can't wait to get more from him in the fall. Thanks Scott.

Well I thought while I was out there with the camera  I might as well take a couple more pics of the ole yard. We did a bit of work on it in the spring and I really like what we have going so far.

Check it out we have pears!!!!! My husband and I planted this little pear tree last year with the hopes of fruit but I was still amazed when I looked out one day and what do you know little pears. However, I did make a rookie mistake by not spraying the tree, so the leaves look kind of junky but now I know for next year.
