Garden Inspiration!

Well, it is supposed to be close to 80 degrees here today (and we have had lots of these days lately - I am NOT complaining!) and I think a post of "Garden Inspiration" is in order.  These are all drawn from...you guessed it...My Garden Board on Pinterest. It seems all my inspiration these days comes from Pinterest!  It has become a particularly wonderful friend during the many nights I can't seem to sleep. 

Here are a few things I would love to try this Spring and Summer:

 I think this idea will be fantastic using some old bags that I have for hanging on our gates!

 Who doesn't love Fairy Gardens?  I just think they are magical and think my boys will enjoy helping create one or two of these...though they may turn out to be Fairy Battlefields!

 I already have the old wicker chair for this project (actually it is a wicker rocker that used to sit on our old house's front porch...I will just remove the rockers and it will be perfect for a climbing rose bush!)

One thing that we encountered when we bought our current home is that the previous owners LOVED chandeliers...particularly mid 90s brass ones.  Almost every room had one so I have several of these gems in my attic and I think THIS is the perfect project for one of them.

So, do you have some fun plans for the garden this year?

    I love the use of galvanized tubs as planters, like in one of your pins. I'm seeing that a lot for this Spring. Just drill a couple of drainage holes & voila! I think I've missed a few of your gardening pins - these are beautiful!

    These are awesome! I must try to find an old chandy. But then again, I only have a small patio...but just love flowers and plants.
