Organized Clutter: Junk Garden Tour 2014
July 25, 2014
Welcome to Organized Clutter's 2014 Junk Garden Tour! This year I asked my friend and coworker, Val, to photograph my tour. Val has a great camera, and is a great photographer.
So sit back and view my gardens through her eyes and her lens. The macros are amazing!

ReplyDeleteYou've really outdone yourself, Carlene! I love the big flower bed with your ladder. The globe thistle are one of my faves, and I've got to plant some next year. Lots of great ideas in your tour. Thanks for sharing and enjoy!
ReplyDeleteAmazing, beautiful, stunning. Wow, I am in love with your gardens. And it all looks organized. The globe thistle picture was stunning. You are right, she is a good photographer. You need to publish a book or make these photos into prints or note cards.
