Slowly, but Surely...out front...

I'm slowly but surely pulling things together outside...I hesitate to show you because...well, there's still so much to do.  But I realized today that for me, decorating outside each Spring is sort of like decorating for Christmas inside...more of a "process" and never really "done".  New ideas keep coming and I just keep on "creating" :) 

So I decided to show you what I have going "so far"...and then show you the rest as I go.  Sound ok?  So here goes...

I love this old scale and weathered bench I got a couple of years ago at the Country Junk Sale. 

Got buckets?  I do :)  These are waiting on a "purpose"...but I thought they looked kinda cute stacked up there until they can be put to work.

Welcome to "Bedrock"...my husband LOVES rocks...as you can see :)

I've been trying to "green" it up with plants and flowers...but that has been a "process" too. Each year we add a little bit more...here and there.

Oh well...up we go...

 And old rusty tire rim planted up...why not?

And an old creamer...but maybe you've seen that before??

We have plans to add a nice tree this year...straight ahead in that empty space to the right of the white chairs.  Can't wait...I think that will add some "curb appeal" for sure :)

"Out front"...

I am REALLY ready for a "color change" but it's just not in the budget right now so I guess I'll be patient.

See that BIG mulch area?  We have plans for that too...to be continued :)

The front porch arrangement has pretty much stayed the same the last couple of years...I added a milk can and changed up the flowers...

...and added green bottles instead of little pots to my naked bench springs.

This hanging drawer is a new addition this year...actually I bought it yesterday :)

Infact the string form the tag is still flying in the wind...and I had to borrow a plant from another spot.  Cheater, cheater :)

So I guess that's all for now folks...I'll be back with more and some junk "out back" too :) 

Have a great weekend...I gotta run, I'm heading out to garage sales with my sisters.  Wish me luck!!!
