Fantastic live ivy ball topiaries in clay pots! It's so wonderful to have live plants back in the shop again...it's been a long time. These classic topiaries are ready to grace the rooms of your home.
Darling pink jasmine ring topiaries, light, airy, delicate.
vintage chandelier dressed for a garden party
fresh lavender plants
vintage glider, chair and table Nantucket bike basket, my German goat cart(NFS, sorry, it's falling apart) is full of faux cabbages that are fun tucked into cupboards, urns, or the corner of benches, tuck in a scratching bunny
old leaded glass windows, architectural porch fragments, faux and real purple hyacinth
Seek & Find...do you see a pair of vintage ironstone egg cups? Velvet covered bunnies? Old egg crates? Leaded glass salvaged from a now closed Columbus restaurant?
chippy paint flatwall with crusty urns, chartreuse garden gloves, rolls of moss ribbon, string bags full of faux bulbs, willow gardener's basket (wonderful Mother's Day gift!!), wicker wrapped candle cups, old berry basket, architectural corbels
a flock of bird houses (every spring a pair of Carolina Wrens make their home in one of these in my backyard)
Gorgeous large egg wreath
more egg wreaths, medium sized
very tall green cupboard, picture taken late, lots of goodies going home with shoppers
My friend Kimberly had this cupboard looking like she raided Mr. MacGregor's garden! Customers snacked while they shopped and I didn't get this picture snapped until the evening was over.
My girlfriend Kim graciously made these wonderful cucumber sandwiches, yum!
I just found your blog, what a beautiful place!!! I will be back, Many Blessings, Janna
