Happy Monday!
I’ve had a ‘bee in my bonnet’ about a back door ‘Welcome’ for the Potting Shed.
The Potting Shed is oriented with the back door to the driveway and road
and is more visible than the front door, which faces a wooded area by the lake.

I love all things *bee* so this Apiary Apron with bee skep ‘spoke’ to me. . .
Good for buzzing around in the kitchen or in the garden. . .
when it’s not 90+ degrees in the shade! 🐝
Bees are buzzing on a pillow. . .
And by the Limelight Hydrangeas. . .
Bumblebees hug the flowers, crawling inside and enjoying
the protective cover and shade of the big blooms.
My bonnet is sharing some bee-attitudes. . .
Bee Kind and Bee Happy 🐝
The hat is buzzing with bees, temporarily alight with magnets.
I found Primitives by Kathy Bee Magnets to join my other Bee Magnets.
You can see the magnets buzzing around the
flowers and table from last week, HERE.
Plain magnets are on the under side of the brim, holding the decorative magnets
in place as a temporary decoration without damaging the hat! 🐝
And the galvanized wreath hanger is alight with a bee. 🐝
Verbena Lollipop is a bee and butterfly favorite.
I found this Bee Happy Doormat last week to add to the Potting Shed porch.

Love all the BEE utiful stuff!! I decorated for Summer with the Bee theme and Sunflowers. Need to get that apron.
Bee-u-ti-ful as always Mary!
I love this Mary! Your limelight hydrangeas are so big and bee-uitful! I admire your stamina to get out and garden (and photograph!) in this summer heat. The humidity has been off the charts. Thanks so much for the links too, I think I need a cute bee apron and dish towel. 🐝 Jerrie
Your apron, the bonnet and your new doormat are all so perfect for my favorite potting shed, Mary!! Every time I see your limelight hydrangeas, I want some. I must’ve missed your bee-themed table…I’m off to see it. Happy week to you.xo
Bee-utiful! I am a lover of bees, both the one’s found in nature and the one’s that adorn numerous spaces in my home. World Bee Day is annually celebrated on May 20th since 2017 when the United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution declaring the day. That was after 3 years of effort by the Slovenian Beekeeper’s Association president, Bostjan Noc, with the support of other Slovenian beekeeper’s and their government department. To honor their pioneer of apiculture Anton Jansa, who was one of the greatest experts of his time, they chose his 1734 date of birth for the celebration. Though that has passed, there is still National Honey Bee Day celebrated annually the third Saturday of August…this coming Saturday, August 15th. This one began in 2009 when it was held on the 4th Saturday, but has since that year become the third. You are well prepared to celebrate the day ! I see many bee themed items here that I “need”! Thank-you!
The little magnets are such a cute idea! Love all things bee, it was a refreshing visit 😊
Your bee items are so cute and are perfect for your potting shed. Enjoy your week. Stay safe and cool. Clara ♥️
You just gave my Christmas shopping a boost. Three generations of bee item collectors!
Bee Happy! What great Monday Morning fun. THANK YOU!
I love it when you feature bees in your blog….one of my favorites! That bee apron is calling to me…..love the floral and ferns on it too. I ordered it through your affiliate link….thanks for finding such fun things for us Mary!
So perfect for the summer season! Thanks!
Needless to say…BEEautiful ! franki
Love all of your whimsical bee items!
Mary, you know I’m buzzing with happiness as I scroll through this post. Delightful!!! I may need to order that doormat! Happy Monday!
Lovin’ the bee happy and bee kind sayings Mary! It’s been a ~little~ warm here in Philly too… Just a couple more weeks until pumpkin season:@)
Your hydrangeas are lovely, certainly your bees agree❤️. I also enjoy watching the bees and hummingbirds around the flowers🌺. Great post, as usual!! So many gift ideas for our bee lovers💕
Mary, all the bees buzzing around the potting shed are bee-utiful! The apron and straw hat make a fabulous door adornment, so cute! Your gardens are so lush and healthy, mine is looking a bit ragged and tired. Thanks for all the eye candy. Have a wonderful week!
It’s such a privilege to have you drop in. Thank you for all your inspirations. Looking forward to your next post.
Adorable and fun post, Mary! You are always all a buzz! Your limelight is so lush and healthy. Even with extra watering mine is looking dried out.
Love your back door! Too cute.
What a cute decoration for the back door! Looks great! Too cute Mary. Also, really like your new door mat. So happy for you. ♥️🐝♥️🐝
Bee lovers inspiration is definitely here! My sister is a “bee lady” and you have given me great ideas for her birthday.
The Limelight Hydrangeas are magnificent. I found a very large limelight shrub at a garden center last weekend, but passed on it as I had the wrong vehicle! Since you love bees, have you considered having a bee hive in your garden? Love the “apron lady” on the door!
~Mary~
Sooo very cute !!
Yes, lets all just Bee Kind !!
Take care,

Thank you Paula, yes let’s :) I hope you are well! 🐝💕
Love your potting shed with the beautiful red door, it has inspired me to change the color of my used brick octagon house.door. Think it
would be the perfect color. Would you possibly remember what color it is and the company that makes it.?
Thanks so much
Char Krause
Hi Char, I repainted it last year with paint leftover from my DIY Board and Batten Shutters. It’s Spanish Tile / Valspar Reserve Extreme Weather Paint + Primer.
Thanks so much, can’t wait to see how great my house will look..
