Spring Cleaning


Yuck....doesn't this look just dreadful?!  I've had that table and chairs set for years and just stuck it out on our front porch with our dead plants when we moved.  It stayed like this for months.  Priorities.



Here's a close up of the table and dead plants in case you wanted a better look. ;)


Ta Da!  It's amazing what a little sanding, staining, and a trip to Target can do!


I sanded and stained that little bistro set in a total of one hour.  Not to bad, if I do say so myself!  I planted some flowers today, pulled out all the dead stuff in the beds, and bought some outdoor pillows....much better.  Now we're not an embarrassment to the neighborhood.


Here's our little backyard table.  Our backyard needs some serious attention.



Here's my temporary herb garden until we can get our back yard under control.  It's not bad, it's just so BORING.  It's a tiny patio and a backyard full of sod.  I can't even bear to take a picture of it for the blog....so boring.  But....a blank slate can be fun!
