Patriotic Junk Garden Vignettes
June 21, 2015
I just picked up the blue gas can last weekend at an estate sale for $1. The red and blue gas cans reminded me that I had a red, white and blue license plate that I had purchased last year. Red iron stars were added with magnets along with a Kmart Fourth of July flag.
My fuchsias are starting to fill out, but it is still early here in northern Minnesota.
The rock and metal rooster is new this season. I purchased it at a local garden shop. I have had the wooden slat flag for several years. I think it's great on my chippy picket fence section purchased last year.
This flower bed has a lot of sedums and thymes and low growing ground cover perennials. I have calibrachoa in the top of the chicken feeder, and hen and chicks in the bottom.
I love decorating for the Fourth of July!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful decorations, Carlene!
ReplyDeleteLove your garden! I have a question, though. Do you coat any of your wooden pieces to protect them from rain and sun exposure or just let nature do it's thing?
ReplyDeleteOh my friend, I have red cans but I need a blue! $1 now that is just ridiculously wonderful. Never found one that cheap around here. Love your fun display Carlene!
