Making it Mine
05/21/2010
Today is a perfect day for gardening. It's cool, overcast, and a little bit rainy. I used this perfect day to plant containers . . . and to add this-and-that to my garden.
I love planting containers. I can play with color, texture, and style -- on a very small scale. I can take some risks with plants I wouldn't normally grow; try new ideas and do a little experimenting.
I planted two of these on my front porch. . .
Put together a "faux" window box under my dining room window. . .
Filled in some spots in my perennial beds. . .
And jazzed up the red geraniums on my patio.
I love adding my own personal touches to my garden.
It makes it fun.
It adds some flair.
It makes it mine!
Have a great weekend.
Hope you can get outside - and enjoy!
Everything is looking fabulous!!!! Great job. ~Jan

Gorgeous! Love love the clematis. Is that Nelly Moser? Dr. Ruppell? Do you remember?

Walking through your yard would be an adventure. The pots add such interest with a treasure in every corner. The pot with earrings is as fun and funky as can be. You have a flair!!
