November has ARRIVED...
with her 'WINTERIZING LIST' of duties to perform!
 |
| ALONG with orders for the upcoming holiday, orders such as the ole' sausage grinder, turned succulent, table-side planter (above). A vintage, kitchen piece that was well-known during the autumn season, throughout ages past! When out on the road... weather it be for picking purposes OR finishing up a show, the thoughts are always pondering the NEXT project OR idea! |
 |
| And with the majority of THOSE pondering thoughts... the garden aspect is considered in almost every, last idea! For the LOVE of gardening runs deep from within my soul... a passion my PRECIOUS 'Momma' left instilled in her '3' girls! Shown above... are HANDMADE, original sunflowers... strutting their full size in the wind! PERFECT accent for the gardens throughout the fall months... with added purpose of a bird feeder... JUST cup the leaves, creating a steady landing spot for birds to perch while they enjoy a scrumptious treat! |
 |
| And as I turn to the garden once more... November brings those cooler temps to lead us into EVEN colder fronts as the winter season sits in. As the gardens turn to dismay & debris... skeletons of plants that were once said... BEAUTY are NOW not so, on this November day! So, what's a gardener to do... well, THIS gardener went in search of the tried & TRUE... happy-faced PANSY! I happened upon a little, quaint garden center while traveling the back roads in Kentucky last week & had full-mind... that PANSIES were the purchase for this visit! And I absolutely LOVED the idea of their packaging, instead of a plastic tray... my PANSIES were nestled inside of a large, paper bag with care & handed to me as if they were nuggets of gold! The service was exceptional with my $6 dollar purchase of PANSIES... No wonder they're pushing their 35th year of business!!! Hoping YOU a day well spent in the garden... |
