My potting shed's flower boxes has been
empty all summer...
too much blogging ~ not
enough gardening...
but for the last two weeks
Mr. Anything Goes Here and
I have been cleaning up the flower beds...
{nothing in these either...}
{didn't put those watering cans to
much use...}
and I put some of the garden debris in the flower boxes ~ so they would look pretty for a
day or
two....
Yes, too much blogging. But I love it. Why is it so addicting? I'm glad there are others with the same interest. I wake up and wonder who posted during the night?
ReplyDeleteFun Friday to you!
That is such a darling post! My favorite picture is the last one with all of your garden rakes together! I have only blogged since June and I am addicted too! Waiting for the next post is like waiting for the phone to ring...you just want to say more and see more of what everyone else is doing! Bisous... Julie Marie
ReplyDeletethose photos belong in a magazine! love all the clay pots
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your post and loved the pictures. I also have to breath a little sigh of relief to know that I am not the only blog addicted person out there! Everyday my son will ask how many "new friends" I have...don't you love a teenager!! Anyway, I always enjoy reading your posts, thanks for fueling my addiction.
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how much time blogging takes. I am so jealous. I want a potting shed! You have done a great job of making it look so sweet. I love the blue shutters.

Hey Joan,
ReplyDeleteWhat has it been about this summer? It has gone sooo fast, seems like it should still be May, or June...September, no way. I think a lot of us are having the 'Flower Box Blues'. Soon, here, we will have frost, and the '09 growing season will be gone...
Your all organized, and it looks beautiful. I'm trying to do the same, our garden goodies will be there for us next spring, and the race will be on, once again!

I've never seen such nice looking garde "debris"! All of your pots stacked up on the potting bench is a work of art in itself.

Great pictures today! Cleaned and ready for using next year, huh?
ReplyDeleteWOW what a lovely gardenening spot! I looove the chartreuse ferns.
ReplyDeleteI hear you! I put out a few things close to the house in beds that would not require a lot of work. But next yr. with health improving I hope to be able to do more. I miss it, use to love to do it. Check out the project I did with clay pots...might want to use some of those empty ones like this ...

Smile, smile... when I read "too much blogging ~ not enough gardening." Creative solution though!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend!
Love your zincs, and aqua shutters. Cute post!
ReplyDeleteGreat to see that too much blogging and not enough doing is a common thread for many of us.
ReplyDeleteMind you, your photo of all the pots and watering cans is calendar-worth in its own right. Seriously, it looks like something out of the Pottery Barn catalog. Very nice.
I love the color of your shutters! And that picture of all the clay pots is stunning! It looks straight out of Country Living magazine!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend, Joan!
I just started blogging a couple weeks ago, and already have added a second one on a different subject. I'm still at the stage of looking for great blogs to follow (like yours) and so I spend way too much time clicking links from other blogs or clicking the "next blog" button. If I'm not doing that, I'm planning the next entry for my own blogs. It is addictive. I love your title on this one, and the flowers look great!
ReplyDeleteI think I need some aqua shutter too. They make the "debris" look happy.
ReplyDeleteHere's to creative solutions!
Cheers,
~Julia
They really look very nice!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea.
ReplyDeleteSweet post. I have a thing for clay pots & watering cans too! Your pictures are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed your post...great pictures. I love your collection of pots. Isn't it cool how good they look all together. I have a 'pot garden' myself. Have a safe and happy Labor Day weekend! Come by and visit my blog!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea, great galvanized stuff. The color of the shutters on your shed made me squeal with delight!

Sweeeet gardening goodies!!
ReplyDeleteLove your pics....there is always next year!!
Enjoy your long weekend!!
Hey Joan
ReplyDeleteGorgeous images... the colours are beautiful today.. just popping off the page. Must be those lovely blue shutters.
Have fun x Julie
I'm lovin' your blue shutters....
ReplyDeleteMe, too...no gardening this summer. Our town is low on water and not many are using it for lawns....we need it to drink. My yard is the same color as my neighbors...brown!!
Love your quick solution to the empty boxes. For me it has been too hot to be outside much. Blogging in the air conditioning is more pleasant..
ReplyDeleteKathy b
I loved your solution to empty window boxes. I hope you are having a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteYou still did good on your yard and shutters. You are right, blogging can take much time. Nice post.
ReplyDeleteVery nice. Yes, blogging takes alot of time. My garden was awful this year, too much rain.
ReplyDeleteCindy
Your temporary window boxes are beautiful! Your "yard waste" is a lot prettier than certain beds in my yard. Just now cooling off enough to want to work out there. Fall is my fave time in the garden. Love those crisp cool morning!
ReplyDeletelooks fabulous...great idea.
ReplyDeleteAlways fun to see a potting shed. Thanks for sharing. If you have time stop by the QCI blog for a late Blue Monday post. Happy Blue Monday! ~ Sarah
ReplyDeleteLove your clay pots all lined up on the shelf and your watering cans. Wow! You have a few! Looks so vintage, dahlin!!! :)
ReplyDeleteMy two cents is that I think I have to have shelving like that for all my pots!! And soon! How wonderful that looks! Perhaps I will have a potting shed one day...perhaps...
ReplyDeleteI confess, I have a blogger addiction too. Fantastic shots!
ReplyDeleteJoyce M
Yep...blogging is so much fun that it can really interfere with the work that needs to be done. Your photos are beautiful... How wonderful to have a potting shed!
ReplyDeleteJane (Artfully Graced)
Gorgeous post!! Love everything about it!
ReplyDeleteLove your pictures. And blogging is really fun to do.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice day, Annemieke
I love your old gardening treasures, like your watering cans and such! Wish I had a space like that for my pots!
ReplyDeleteBrenda
Love your photos and I totally identify with your blogging addiction! I'm jealous too....I want a potting shed like yours! I just have a pre-made storage shed....not as charming as yours. Here in the Southwest some of our prime gardening time is coming up, so maybe I'll be getting a little more done outdoors, but then again there's this blogging thing! lol Loved your cute post!
ReplyDeleteElaine :)
Oh, dear, it is NEVER enough blogging! He, he, he.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. Have a great day,
Val
Yes, definitely too much blogging here, too. Love the window boxes.
ReplyDeleteJane
I love this idea, and I want your potting shed! Thank you for filling in during my vacation with your tuesday tutorial!
