greetings! it would seem summer has gotten a second wind in our neck of the woods, so i seized the opportunity to put some touches on one of my {W.I.P} - otherwise know as "work in progress"!
we all have projects waiting to be tackled and sometimes my list grows longer than my accomplishments! a visit from my always motivated mom (a million thanks as always!) made sure this wasn't the case in point on a little area next to my studio!
i'd like to send a BIG thank you to jo - a fabulous customer who was kind enough to give me the GIANT old gate! have you ever laid your eyes on such a marvel!? i have been collecting gates for sometime now and this is the granpappy of them all! just take a peek {below} for yourself!
i'd like to think the S on the seat {below} was put there to celebrate our surname but i suspect it has more to do with the maker of the bike...schwinn! regardless, the color works just brilliant in my little gathering!
here a catawampus plant stand {below} has the beginings of a harvest geared display. it's a WIP as i said so there are more touches to be made! but it is on the right track!
more seasonal accents are found in the unusual peanut & jarradale pumpkins! i'm always on the look-out for the "beyond ordinary"! plus these uniquely hued squash provide some color to the landscape!
this old ironwork {below} has been hanging around for a few years now. at one time i offered it for sale & when it didn't find the right "new" home it came back to mine! and i do think i have finally found it's resting spot for the time being here in my shade garden!
so there you have one of my {W.I.P}! a day spent in the dirt + unearthing existing treasures...highlighted this fine summer-like wednesday! maybe i will make this an ongoing wednesday theme and start checking more off the "list"! thanks for stopping today and make it a great day!
