The Enchanted Woods beckons us to enter...

The Promise of Spring
If it weren't for the lovely bird song that fills my garden it would seem pretty dismal right now. . . .

Out and About - March 2016
March 1st was the first of my 8 watercolor classes. We spent it learning about the different ways to put the paint on the paper. I was delighted to discover an old acquaintance I hadn't seen in 16 years was also attending. . .

Waiting for Spring
I'm sitting here at my desk watching the snow falling outside my window. . . .
And I was thinking about Spring. I know much of the country has had more than its fair share of winter this year and many of you are also eager for greenery and flowers! So I wanted to send you to my very first Morning Musing's post--one of my favorites--and hope it helps tide you over until Spring does finally arrive. Be sure to click on the link to the accompanying music. . . .

Out and About - April
The first nine days of April just dragged on, and on, and on as we awaited for little Olivia June's arrival. In the meantime, we went shopping for plants and brought home eight Forsythia to plant along our property line....

A Touch of Spring
This arrangement was created with chicken wire stapled to a shallow box, filled with dirt and then moss covering it to hold it all in, so it can be hung on a wall. Succulents like Hens & Chicks are tucked through the wire....
This hanging frame is built around a special container that has a lid on top for watering. It's for larger plants....
An Easter arrangement in a wheel barrow....
A child's wagon makes a wonderful container for plants....
Old ladders tucked into a garden helps to raise the flowers to a new level....
Now I know what to do with this exact same wicker form I bought in a yard sale a few years ago. This artist attached real flowers to a dress to make this arrangement....
A fishing creel, boots....and a fishing pole adds the finishing touch....
Another Easter arrangement....
I love this color combination and the nest of eggs and peacock feathers gives it flare....
Simple....but the intense colors really speak to me....
That is water bubbling out of the top of the boulder. You could have this in your yard, along with the small pond it empties into for $4,000....
I cropped this photo so you could see the egg shell "pots" holding the miniature daffodils, crocus, and pansies....
They made a bunting using seed packets....
Those are Peeps inside the clear glass vase holding the tulips. You put the flowers in a smaller container and fill the area around it with the Peeps. How clever....
The Asparagus grass under the swan softens the hard edges of the container and column....
The gourd giraffes were darling....
When I saw the price on these I said "I can make that!" So, we'll see. If I do, I'll be sure to show you....
