Keeping the air flowing helps to dry the paint more quickly and prevent drips and it’ll also keep you comfortable.

Lucky for me the normal (herbaceous?)peonies are about to go too, so I should have plenty of flowers for a few weeks at least.. Here’s our big new garden before the weekend.. And after!

OK, it’s not that dramatic, but there are plants in there.You’ll have to trust me on this.. We planted pretty much everything we could get our hands on and we still have more room!.That’s a plant.. There’s another plant!.

This is a picture of a plant that we hope might actually grow.. Chris built this little retaining wall in one area where we had to dig down to keep it all level.I kind of like it!.

So that’s what we’ve got so far.

Hopefully within a few weeks things will fill in a little more and I’ll be able to show you something that looks more like a thriving vegetable garden and less like a big brown rectangle.. Hope you liked the little tour anyway!Hope everyone had a great Mother’s Day Weekend!I don’t know what it is with me and weeds, but I just love ’em.Of course, my very favorite would be to clean out the garage and use that, but I don’t see that happening any time soon around here.

They’ve been a super popular craft for awhile, but really everyone and their dog was making them about 3 or 4 years ago.It’s almost become required crafting in the blog world.
