Trying to get ready for a crazy busy week so nothing much in the hooking department. I did finish yet another door prize cigar box for the guild's fall hook in. I didn't do anything special on the inside other than put some scrapbook paper on the bottom.
The yard is looking so pretty! I love this time of year.
I did not have the luck Cathy from Acorn Hollow did with overwintering my geraniums. This was one of my two successes but it has not yet bloomed. Love the nut tin.
DSO reinforced my falling apart chair to get another year's use out of it.
An old chicken waterer missing its top.
Clematis.
Happy flowers. Evening primrose.
And one happy bee.
Cool old tool box from a friend last year. Only one or two of the plants survived the winter, but she was gracious and gave me plants from her yard to fill in.
One of my son's old workboots on an old tricycle. I just love yard junk!
At Aldi's the other day, they had these gorgeous hydrangeas for only $14.99. How could I resist that color? Now to figure out where to plant it!
Michigan for the day tomorrow (early Father's Day celebration at DSO's son's house), Monday the annual "nun visit". She will be 97 soon. Then Tuesday and Wednesday a hooking class. ARGH!!! I am thankful for my crazy, busy life.
Must share. DSO just stopped by for a minute. This is the hotrod he built from a kit a few years ago 😁
And the sweetest passenger ever sitting on her custom made "perch" so she can see out the window. (Yes, that perch makes her a** look fat 😉)
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊

Oh my HECK!! Your yard is AMAZING!! I adore yard junk too (although I've cut way back on my planting in that regard as it's so hard to find anyone to water things when I'm away and given the (usually) small-ish containers they get planted in, they need frequent watering. Love DSO's hot ride...and Ernestine is adorable. Her perch is a hoot. Not spoiled, eh? Enjoy your adventures in the coming days... (Your latest cigar box is sweet...but I won't tell you what I "saw" when I first saw it. 🤣)
ReplyDeleteI love yard junk too and have two tricycles but nothing on them now. In the past I've had an old cuckoo clock on the side of a tree, boots, and a gazillion birdhouses.
ReplyDeleteCool hotrod and a 'hot' dog. OMG, Robin I didn't notice anything until I read your comment. Now I can't unsee them, lol.
I love your flowers! My geraniums are just budding now.
ReplyDeleteWonderful car what a hobby.
