Whimsy in the Garden

Hello everyone,
     I hope you all enjoyed your long weekend. We had beautiful weather and enjoyed having a few garden tours but also visiting with some of our children and grandchildren who were camping at a lovely campground. They had beautiful fireworks there to celebrate Canada Day.
    I did steal a little time out to do a little makeover of an old iron baby crib that I bought for $10. and I enjoyed taking some photos to share with you.
There is so much going on in the garden right now-that I don't want to miss capturing any of it.
I gathered together some fabric,pillows and an old foam mattress and did a little whimsical vignette.
Some bunnies and an old doll carriage and doll added just the right touch of whiimsy.
Now ,it is a charming spot for a cup of tea.

You can enjoy the fragrance of the roses and the pink beautybush behind you while you linger.

This is what I started with.  I didn't paint it because I like the shabby look.




I think a little whimsy in the garden adds a bit of charm-don't you?

As many of you know Prince William and Lady Catherine are visiting our little Island tonight and tomorrow and my sister and I are planning to go into Charlottetown in the morning to see them. My sister has just arrived home from Vancouver for a visit so we will be busy enjoying ourselves!

I am joining Between Naps on the Porch for Metamorphosis Monday-you should see Susan's patriotic porch makeover but of course, there is always lots to see there.I am also joining Cielo for Show off your Cottage Monday at the beautiful house in the roses.

Thank you for visiting,

Carolyn
