unusual plantings...

Few things in life bring me more joy than time spent in my garden.

I love being surrounded by simple things like flowers, birds and butterflies. It brings a peace that can only be found in nature. Combining my love of gardening with my passion for thrifting and a hefty dose of creativity is the perfect recipe for happiness. In honor of Earth Day I thought I would share some smiles. Here are some whimsical and witty planting ideas...Enjoy!

 

 

weathered flea-market bird cages...

 

look closely...

there's an old pair of blue jeans in here...

 

terra cotta pots come to life...

a guardian of the garden

 

air plants play along...

 

and create a beautiful song

on these retired musical instruments...

 

hard working ladders and rusty old paint cans

are given a second career...

 

old sconce lights not working...?

no problem, just flip it upside-down

 

and my very favorite...

old Wellies!

 

it's hard not to smile...

every creature who enters is happy to stay

 

I hope you had a lovely Earth Day!

Look for ways to surround yourself with happiness

no matter how silly it might seem to the rest of the world!
