right this way
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!
The "blue hour" shot, with my rock candles aglow. I love my seahorse but she is going to have to find another place to hang out now. I need something else there...haven't found it yet, of course, if I knew what I was looking for it would be easier. Your suggestions welcomed!
I fell in love with these concrete urns that I stumbled across in Granville. They are new and I plan on washing them with a vinegar/yogurt solution to encourage a mossy patina to start growing. Still need something on the door but I am not a wreath person.(My door looks like it's floating, hmm, maybe put a wide limestone slab there as a mini step?)
I love the shallow bowl and the height from the elongated stem.
I am SO not good at pairing plants/flowers (and let's not talk about keeping them alive afterward, it's ugly). I actually had to "phone a friend" after I wandered around the nursery for 40 minutes trying to figure out the 3rd plant for this simple collection. Sad, I know. I am very landscape challenged.
All the white wicker went away and was replaced by this group of vintage wrought iron. The black has worn to a nice chalky black-green.
My vintage champagne box, which I filled with wispy maiden hair ferns, I bought from Lisa Marton. She rents a space from me at the store and finds some of the most amazing and unusual pieces.
A hint of ruffles on the box pillows add a bit of elegance without full on "frou frou".
Vintage ironstone tureen spilling over with petunias (the third plant suggestion by my friend...I can hear you laughing! I told you I was challenged in the horticulture arena!) 
Behind the two chairs is my beloved climbing rose. This one I did some research on. I have always wanted one but knew myself to well. I needed a rose that could take little to no maintenance (read neglected). This gal is quite independent. I planted her three years ago and she is climbing up on to the top of our porch already. It's a New Dawn rose and it was FULL of blooms top to bottom in May and early June.
Thanks so much for stopping by, hope you enjoyed your visit!
