More Whitewashing and Garden Junk

May 21, 2016
I decided to give this old bench a thinned paint whitewashing as well as the lobelia frame from the other day.




Annual baby's breath is planted in the tool box, and the pails have annual hot pink petunias, lobelia, calibrachoa, and verbena. The bird houses are semi-attached with a finishing nail pounded into the deck rail and a small hole in the birdhouse bottom slid over the finishing nail.

The "Flower" stencil I added to the old galvanized tool box is from the *Old Sign Stencils Collection.

I picked up a small old window that last week that I nailed to the deck rail.  I like this fun, updated and bright "garden junk" vignette on the corner of my deck!

More garden soon!
*Old Sign Stencils provided me with complimentary samples.
All opinions about these fabulous products are my own.
Thanks for reading my blog, Carlene

  2. This is cute! I like the watering cans staged there too. I j use got my annuals planted (had to wait for the frosts to stop). I have an old double bucket that was my Dad's that I should plant something in. Fun inspiration!

  6. Beautiful ... So wish I could get my flowers to grow as pretty as you do. Everything you plant is so showy in your junk garden. Smart way to mount your birdhouses on the porch rail. Glad you are having good weather.
