6th Glimpse of Fall - FlashBack

 
 
 
 
Today was rainy and gloomy all day, I was in bed half the day with a migraine, but here I am, determined to fulfill this stupid commitment. I'm not even going to mention how it's after 12, so technical...bla, bla, bla. My internal clock is off that's all, it's still Thursday for me, especially when you take into account the fact that I didn't get to sleep until sometime after 5:30am...
 
So I'm sharing a few photos from last year, my little Fall into Halloween, Garden-scape
 

I did a post on this last year, on my "missing" blog, so I thought it would be OK, to re-post, since the original is floating somewhere out in cyberspace.


My Scarecrows are old, maybe 20 years, or so, and very special to me. My Sister-in-law made one for me, and I like it so much I wanted a pair, so I copied hers, and now I have 2. She passed a way a few years ago (8 to be exact) so they are special.



Below, is where my decor changed a little for Halloween, I made a Boo, Banner



The Boo was my first attempt at printing on Burlap, actually my only attempt, although I'm not sure why, I love the way it turned out, and it was fairly easy.

All you need to do is, lightly spray a piece of copy paper with spray adhesive, press the burlap down smooth it out, trim the burlap so it's the same size as the paper. Place it in the printer and print, just as you would a plain piece of paper

 
I think the Scarecrow above, is the one I painted and the one below is the one Michelle made for me



 I replaced the flowers with the skull, I thought it was little more Halloween-ish





It's not easy doing a post with a Migraine Hangover, but the main thing is I did one. I challenged myself, and here I am
day 6.


Succeed or not, I'll do a finale "Commitment" post to sum it all up, if you've been following along or just happen to catch one, Thank you so much for being a part of my Journey.


Thank you for visiting with me today, hopefully you have been inspired in some small way...

Please leave a comment so I know you were here, they really do make my day!

God's Blessing to you and your families, have a wonderful day

An Aqua Garden-For the Love of Flowers and Junk

Isaiah 61:11




Welcome to my world!
Can you tell I LOVE Flowers?



and old junk... The Bird Feeder was an
Anniversar Present, last year.The only thing I purchased new were the plants and the hat and the tiny pot on the top rung (from the Dollar Store)

Everything else was a Thrifty Find!


Like, Old Rusty Bed Springs


I also have a new LOVE of Aqua!


Did you know that it is very contagious? yep, all I did was paint one thing in Aqua, and next thing I knew, everything was painted Aqua (even some leaves)


I'm not usually a "matchy, matchy" type gal,
 so I really don't know how all this stuff ended up Aqua! (and I don't usually call myself a gal either)


My Old Gray, Wooden Ladder is now Aqua...


My Birdhouse, is now Aqua... it was red and I loved it, but I think I love it more now!


At least, I didn't paint my Rusty Wine Barrel Ring, well maybe just a touch around the edges, I told you it was contagious, and spreading fast!



I think my Clay Pots, were the first to go


Followed by one of my Rusty Old Lanterns, and even my little Dollar Store Bird
(see him tucked in with the flowers?)


I didn't paint my hat, or the Old Garden Shears,
(I was tempted, but you have the draw the line somewhere, right?)

If you Liked it, feel free to Pin it!

Thank you for stopping by, hope you enjoyed your visit, come back soon!

Your comments really do make my day!

God Bless and have a wonderful day
