Ready to sit and relax!

The garden is edged, 

and annuals planted,

gazebo is up,

and seating arranged, 

..Ahhhhh...

My favorite yard ornament

I rescued this chair about 10 years ago, it was being thrown out by one of my neighbors. It was a teal blue and the seat was missing but I just loved the style... The basket fits perfect just add your favorite flowers. Looks great with a big pumpkin in it at fall time.....

Say hello to my little friend

Every year the turtles make their way up from the stream in the back yard and into my garden to lay their eggs and usually just after we put the mulch down  messing  it up. This year because of all the rain we've had we are a little bit late putting the mulch down. This turtle is just over a foot long. 

When I'm not making Jewelry...

I love working in my yard. We only have a back yard because our house is so old it literally sits on the street.

We have an old fireplace that is centered in the garden that we still use. It's great for roasting marshmellows.

This is an Adirondack chair my son Alex made for me in woodshop for Christmas this year. Isn't it beautiful!!
