This is looking across the street down at the end of the property; what will be our orchard area.
They aren’t selling pansies and other annuals around here yet, but these few in here somehow managed to survive the move and the winter and are blooming like crazy now.I bought these last April!.
We’re ready for a lot more big time gardening this year.We’ve got a little staging area set up between the garage and the house for all of our landscaping materials..But that will have to wait.
I’m not going out there for at least a few days!I’ve been on the lookout for something to help me organize my giant basket of magazines and catalogues that seems to be overflowing more and more these days.Everything I’ve found is either ugly and not at all something I want in my living room or too expensive for any real person to be able to afford as many as I’ll be needing..
So I made my own!
And I like them waaay more than anything I’ve seen in the stores..They were fine for then, but it was time for something a little more polished.
Even though we’re not ready to tackle painting the cabinets and replacing the countertops in the kitchen, it’s time to make it feel a little more finished and comfortable..When the burlap was down, I measured the window from side to side including the moldings.
Since this window was sandwiched between two cabinets, we realized we would just need one straight piece of cornice for a nice clean look and wouldn’t need to attach the end cap pieces..I laid out two section pieces end to end and then trimmed a bit off of the third piece to make up the 40 inches that I would need total.
