My Potting Shed is in print in Flea Market Gardens Magazine! She’s part of Sheds Revamped in the spring 2015 issue available now through May 4th. I knew in December the publication was coming out sometime this spring, but I wasn’t sure exactly when it was hitting the newsstands until a blogging friend let me know she saw…
With our Arctic chill, I’m in need of the promise of spring and some flower therapy! I filled my Heritage Ball Jars with some grocery store blooms in my Potting Shed. Some alstroemeria and iris for a sunny burst of yellow in Heritage Collection Blue Mason Jars. . . Hydrangeas, carnations and snapdragons in Heritage Collection Spring Green Mason…
I’m weighing in on Ball Jar Love and the introduction of Purple Heritage Collection Ball Jars! I find myself craving color and flowers and in need of a little pick-me-up when it’s cold and gray this time of year. Purple Heritage Collection Ball Jars provide a little bliss and are just what the doctor ordered for the Punxsutawney Blues and…
I’m celebrating winter in the Potting Shed with snowmen. . . Both inside and out! Snowy white & wise owls have flown the coop to make way for snowmen. . .

I did find a little inspiration for some projects as well as an excuse to celebrate the seasons and holidays. Here is a recap and highlights…
I’m picnicking with the birds with inspiration and fun provided by my Birds of a Feather Advent Calendar. Birds of a feather have flocked together and Lenox Winter Song plates and mugs are joining the fun, set on a tree slice charger and plaid throw for a tablecloth. A birdhouse is perched in the window box…
With Christmas around the corner, I’m putting out the Wise Men and Shopping Wisely! And winging my way through December with a little fun and inspiration from my Birds of a Feather Advent Calendar! My Potting Shed is an owl habitat for Christmas and a little tabletop fun! A jute runner provides a foundation for wood slice chargers and a…
‘Tis the Season for Poinsettias! I’m doing my part for the US economy and I bet you are too, since more than 70 million poinsettias are sold annually within the six-week period between Thanksgiving and Christmas. With less than 2 weeks until Christmas, {yikes!} I’m trying to Keep Calm and Merry On while scurrying to check off…
