The before is a bench that needs something done to it. Very dated, not pretty, maybe needs to find a new home, but for now it is on the porch. It does collect a varied amount of 'stuff' on its way in our out of the house. I cleared it off before I took the photo.
Wrapped a couple of bundles of my peavine sticks to give some height to the display.
Added two tin lanterns that are waiting for a new home and called in finished.
Welcome home.

So cute, Joy. I found you through Timeless Treasures. I love, love your hydrangeas. I have moved them before, but you have to be very careful.

ReplyDeleteHi Joy, wish I had Hydrageas like that to try and move. lol! Love them and they look great with the bundled twigs. Thanks for sharing with Share your Cup.

Your porch looks great! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteVery cute. Donna was so right about the hydrangea. I always forget that they sort of dry to the container shape though until I am trying to move them somewhere else. I love your stick idea for the porch also.
