Estate Sale Gems




At a neighborhood estate last weekend we were able to snatch some great deals. We bought
enough river stone (lg) to build our new fire pit. Also slate pavers and round rock pavers. I think we spent around $50.00 on the rock. FANTASTIC price.


This watering can made into a water fountain.  See the stream of water coming out of the pump. I love it.- Got it for 5.00!!!


This beautiful stone lassie for my front garden.  She has a weathered look that I adore. She matches the vintage bird bath  already in the garden.













Did a little planting this weekend,  added a new hosta to the hosta garden and included some pretty pansies for some color.

Hi, Ann...thanks for stopping by.:)
I am just crazy about your fountain. Gotta have one. :))
I am wondering about my hosta. I have it in the window box where it gets no sun until late in the evening, when the sun is setting. Then, it has about a hour or so of HOT West sun. Is that too much for hosta? So far, it looks ok but I don't wanna fry it. I know it is a shade lover and maybe mine are getting too much sun.?

Hi Ann, The fountain is brilliant. I would love to have one like it. I know your garden must be beautiful too. Pansies are one of my favorites and my hostas are growing like crazy. Life is good in the garden.
Hugs, Jeanne
