~White Wednesday # 49~


The weeks seem to be flying by and I haven't had much time for blogging. This time of year is always so busy and I'm counting the days until my kids get out of school so we can actually spend some time at home.

The weather has been cool and rainy, but I still wanted to share some of my urns and pots on my porch. They still need to fill in and I'll share with you later in the Summer their progress. My porch is my favorite place to be especially in the evening when it is warm and I love to be surrounded by all my chippy peely garden decor. Enjoy! xoxo K.




This last photo is one of a pair of new urns I just got and I think they will end up on our basement patio or down by the pond .


I think the thumbnail photos were a big hit and I'm going to try and get a bigger picture this time. Can you believe next week will be #50! See you then.

  11. Like you, I'll take the chippy white paint anyway I can get it. There is just something so appealing about it. I LOVE the urns, they've been really popular here right now. One of our best selling items. Have a great day Kathleen, and I remember so well when my three kids were smaller and in school. You are running in a thousand different directions!

    Take care, Sue

  25. WOW!! Super pictures!! I wanted to apologize for my McLinky thumbnail link. For some reason it is taking you to a mega Bible study site instead of my blog. If you can remove it, please feel free to do so. I couldn't figure out how to start over.

  51. Thanks Kathleen, I'll keep looking, you know how it is when you're looking for something, and I only really like the fat round ones for my porch, not so much the taller ones. I should check out some antique malls, I'm just always looking for a deal!!

  52. Those urns are beautiful. The one with the swags is my favorite.

    I know what you mean about wanting the kids home to spend more tiem. We were able to go swimming fore the first time this year and I just can't wait to see my little swimmers blossom this year.

    I missed my White Wednesday this week, but next week I am hoping to make up for it.
