This is the first result of alot of sweat, body aches & a little swearing. :) This area is on the end of the barn that is next to the store & was filled with horse weeds when the project began. When it was still cool I pulled all of the horse weeds(I wish I had a before picture) then between the rains the bed was rototilled & yesterday in the 95 degree heat I covered it with mulch. Although I really didn't have the time, I couldn't leave it without doing a little display!!! Let me tell you I was in my happy place fixing this up! I have bigger ideas for this new space including adding more perennials & more junk which I will share with you as the space progresses. (And, yes, all of the "junk" you see is for sale!) I can't tell you how many times I have imagined how cool this area could be but I could never get ahead of those darn horse weeds! The funny thing is no one can really see this area unless they wander into the backyard of the store, so I guess it is more for me to enjoy. :) So any of you stopping by feel free to wander! Don't ya just love the old rusted tin!!!Ahhh, it's the simple things that make me happy...
One more reason I need to come to see you! Looks super cute!
