Oh I know I've let you guys down this week - I've jus' been a really busy girl!!! Helping decorate for a wedding this weekend - so I've had lots and lots of projects. I'll share pictures with you next week.
But in the meantime - I'm wishing you a happy Friday and a blessed weekend. And speaking of Fridays - won't be long we'll be introducing our "Fresh Flower Fridays".
This is something I've wanted to do for a long time - I'll have a lil' roadside stand with freshly arranged flowers from my cutting garden - jus' waiting to find a home - ready to liven up a table for Sunday dinner, to place by your bedside or better yet - maybe deliver to someone special. Everything will be in mason jars tied with pretty ribbons - Oh I can jus' see it now - I've even got a special cart!!! Oh sometimes I wish my mind would slow down a bit!
So in closing - I'm reminding you of a lil' project from last year - that water hose garden wreath. While you are doing some spring cleaning around the house and in the potting shed - don't discard that leaky hose - make something special out of it!
You'll need an old hose, maybe a rusty garden tool, a lil' bucket, some tattered gloves, some flowers if you'd like - and there you go - the perfect "recycled" wreath for the outside of your home or building.

Cathy, that is the cutest idea with the old hose and flowers. And I love the idea of the roadside stand with the flowers. It will be adorable I am sure. I wished I lived closer so I could see all your pretties. Have a great weekend. Sherie

I do, I do have an old hose laying in the yard. And rusty hand tools and an old bucket!!! What a great idea for my tool shed. The wheels are turning! Thank you.
I've had the same thoughts of a roadside cutting garden but don't live on a road that I could do that on *sigh*
Cahty I SOOOOOOO wish we lived closer!! I'd come buy flowers from you!!

OMGosh Cathy!! Your ideas amaze me as always!! I may have to try this one. I just picked up an old gardening shovel for the Goodwill that I wasn't sure what to do with. And I am sure we have some old hoses lying around in the shed. Thanks for the ideas!! Keep em' coming!!

Every new post that you do makes me wish that your shop and roadside stand, was right down the street from me. The hose wreath is so adorable! I really like how you finished it off with the gloves and flowers. I can't wait to see the wedding pictures that you share.
Cathy, that garden hose wreath is just fantastic. Great recycling. Have a great weekend.

This is amazing because just yesterday I started to throw away an old hose and remembered your post from last year. I was going to have to go back to try and find it to see it again....NOW I know some things to put with it. THANKS SO MUCH!!!
What a clever wreath -- something like that would look good on my potting shed!
