I've been waiting on you!
It is a BEAUTIFUL day here in Georgia, welcoming Spring.
So I decided my porch needed a little Spring-ness.
A trip to Home Depot for a $5 hanging basket of pansies.
To finally change out the basket of huge pinecones that had occupied my bench since before Christmas.
Yes I really have left that there the entire time!
I removed the hanger from the pot so my pansies could sit in the basket.
Found a baby lap quilt my mom made for those still chilly mornings and evenings.
Just in case I actually SIT on my porch bench.
I love my bench. It was inspired by a post seen over at NewlyWoodwards.
I wanted something cute for my tiny I wish I had a porch.
So a friend of mine constructed it from a photo with $40 worth of wood and a can of paint.
Just the right touch of charm.
Hope the pansy basket makes it for a bit.
I do not have a green thumb!
Now I have a touch of Spring to welcome me home.
What color is your thumb???

So glad it's finally warmed up for you! The porch looks adorable... a blanket is just perfect for chilly nights.
ReplyDeleteLooks perfect up against your blue home. Very inviting! Yay for Spring!
ReplyDeleteI love the quilt on the bench. My hubby make me a bench just like this one last year. I love it. I bring it in for the winter, but it's about time I put it out again.
ReplyDeleteKim! It was YOUR bench that inspired mine. I've updated my post with a link in to yours. I couldn't remember bc I had snapped a pic with my camera phone and sent it to my friend that is handy with big tools. LOL
ReplyDeleteI love spring and your bench is too cute with the flowers (I liked the pine cones too). You're making me dream of Spring while I am watching the sky spit snow, here in North Georgia, sooo not fair, where is my warm weather. Thanks for linking up to Kellie's Spring Fling so I could dream of Spring for a moment.
