Spring Chores

I must say spring is my favorite season. Warm breezy weather, trees and perennials coming into bloom. But DANG, there are so many chores to do as well. I have been feverishly working outdoors to try to get everything done before the Florida suffocating heat begins. I've been slacking in my etsy shop to do some projects. So here's a few pics to show what I've been up to.

This is a planter I made out of a solar fountain that was cracked. It has iris, purple potato vine, petunias and marigolds.

This is my third miniature garden this spring. All the plants are either flowering or variegated. More of a reflective garden with a statue of St. Vincent, the Patron Saint of Animals.

Also made some fresh hanging baskets...

Set up my new solar fountain...

Set up my new furniture and sitting area...

Worked in Daniel's shade garden...doesn't he look happy with doing yard chores...hahaha

Planted some adorable planters...



And I haven't even shown my projects in the front and deck gardens....that will come next. I'm getting pretty tired, almost done.
