Today, I planted tomatoes, peppers, okra, beans, white eggplant, collards and parsley.  I was going to plant some seeds, but the Farmers Almanac said that seeds planted today would die!  I am going to use this old fence as a trellis for the beans and tomatoes.  Now I need to make some 'cute' markers for the veggies, so's I don't forget what I planted!  Wish me luck, and hope my green thumb prevails!

Things I have more than one of....

VINTAGE GARDEN STUFF -- WHITE WEDNESDAY

It didn't take long after I fell in love with gardening and antiques to start collecting old and unique garden items for use in my garden and home. I love sharing my things with others and telling their stories.  Here and below are a few wonderful white garden things that make my heart go pitter-patter.

This is probably my all time favorite vintage pot...so many layers of white paint!

Collection of small creamy white pots for seedlings from Europe

I just love the patina of old white paint that has sustained the elements for so many years!

Old garden bench....Sit At Your Own Risk!

A vintage bee skep in my herb garden.

I just love this old box with the white paint...makes a great planter

Singing the Praises of Gorilla Glue - "The Strongest Glue on Planet Earth"

This glue works great on pottery, concrete, metal, baskets, and so much more. When drying it expands so it fills in holes. I would suggest removing excess glue before it dries completely. FYI

This is an old silver 'bowl' glued to a wood base..The Gorilla Glue is the only glue that would hold it together.










My husband wanted to throw out this big old pot because it was broken in so many places, but I surely did fix it. I want to plant a lemon tree in it.  I need to scrape off the glue and I may faux paint the pot white. What do you think?

A bouquet of weeds....If you can't beat 'um....join 'um!

Even at the end of a stressful day, a short late afternoon stroll through the garden can put a smile on my face and joy in my heart. I took a few pictures to share my 'treasures' of the day!

Things that made me smile today.....

My hubby brought this home the other day...He did good!  Oh, but what to do with it?  Any ideas?

A girl's gotta have a place to hang her shoes, hat, and a comfy place to land at the end of the day!

I just love my comfy old rocker!  I wonder how many others have enjoyed endless hours of rocking.

Bee Love...

White Wednesday....Buckets, Baskets & Benches

I'm so thrilled to be a part of this 'white' event. I have loved all things white and have collected white for many years, and I am honored to be able to share with other 'like-minded' friends. Enjoy and I would love to hear from you...Blessings,

This is the basket we used growing up for laundry. It took years for me to convince Mom that I should have it..

This wall basket was found at Heart of Country show in Nashville. Mary Emmerling was there to help 'seal the deal'

My latest find...a little tattered, but I only paid $.99 on ebay...

Gym baskets in my office/workroom cabinet...rusty white paint...love,love,love

I had this lonesome spot in my living room that needed something....So I found this old bench and had to cover the top with burlap..works pretty good!

Bucket Bench used as my nightstand
