Living Winter Garden
Good Monday Morning!!
Yes I have to admit it....let it out.....I'm a Copy Cat!!
Remember my inspiration photo
Just as the snow is falling I'm out around the yard gathering
plants and branches for my Living Winter Garden.
Hydrangeas, Black Eyed Suzies that had
gone to seed, cuttings from my
Eucalyptus bush, Ornamental Cabbage,
cuttings from Cedars, Evergreens,
Russian Sage.
I knew I had the perfect chair and a basket that was
in the shed that would hold all my cuttings.
Then I went to work
First I put oasis in the bottom of the basket
then I started assembling all the cuttings with the
highest at the back. Once it was full and to my
liking I tied it to the back of the bistro
chair with florist wire.
Gave it a good watering so it would
freeze and stay fresh.
Next came the branches that I cut from
my silver spruce.
Laid them on the seat then
I added an old lantern that was missing
some glass and a outdoor candle.
You know the kind with the
remote so that you can turn it on at
dusk.
Now stand back and admire!
Here I added some colour with my rain/winter
garden boots.
Also a burlap ribbon to the lantern.
Look who got in this picture!!
