~White Wednesday # 153~

Well our nice sunny warm days have officially come to an end and we are back to rain....I knew this was going to be hard on me since we had two full weeks of dry weather and I was loving every minute of it!  I did have a chance during the dry spell to pick up a few gardening items in between all the kid activities.

I found this smaller sized wood cubby that i added numbers to and these great metal pots from a sweet lady who has a wonderful shop on her property filled to the brim.  I was able to get all the pots on my porch and patio planted as well and my husband even got our vegetable garden planted which is early for us since we live at a higher elevation.  I hope the rain doesn't last too long because I want to be able to get out and enjoy my new garden items and all my blooms.  Enjoy!  xoxo K.

One of my favorite annuals is bacopa with it's small white blooms.

    I will trade ya any day Kathleen.
    We can house swap so you can have the heat and sun and I will take your cold rain. LOL

    I research hypo-allergenic plants this year so we could have some greenery around. The new fake yard looks so nice with a few blooming plants.

    Take care, enjoy that rain for me

    Oh that looks so awesome!'

    And is that repurposed old large coffee tins used as a pot holder? How clever! Did you make those and paint them?

    Love love love it - I like to use terra cotta b/c it is healthier for the potted plants - but get just a little sick of too MUCH of the color.

    Very good idea!

    Thank you for hosting one of the very best linky paries in Blogland!!

    I love your cubby and your white pots! Yes, I'm a Portlander and am sad we are having a rainy week. We were so enjoying our back patio and puttering in the yard.

    cute cute cute! and I love those metal pots. I have been looking for a year now for something I can use as a potting bench next to our potting shed. I have found several things that would work but too far away to drag home. Hoping to find something closer to home. Thank you Kathleen for hosting WW

    Hi Kathleen,
    I love everything you've done with your garden and house. Love, love, love the cubbies. I always forget where you live. I'm not sure if I could handle that much rain. I'm spoiled living in primarily sunny weather year round. I couldn't link my WW post today, not sure why. But I'm enjoying all of the other posts.

    Take care,
    Sue
