Barb, we must have been on the same wavelength! I just posted about my spring gardening ideas, as well! You’re right, the catalogs start coming in with such great ideas; and I zoom right on past winter! LOVE the ideas that you’ve shown here! These are great!

Why is *that* in your garden?
My neighbor across the street has a small lady-like size wheelbarrow that she has had for over 35 years I’ve been living here and it well used and worn. I am so waiting for her to put it out for the trashman to grab up for a planter. I have two wooden ones (one bought at craft fair and one hardware store both been remade by DH and I) I sit pots of blooms in the spring and summer and pumpkins and mums in the fall…but I want my neighbors that isn’t deep for impatiens in my SHADY backyard.
Why is *that* in your garden?
Here in Maine, my garden season is still in the far future, but I am always in the dreaming phase. I love the ladders! I had been thinking I wanted a tall weather vane or lightning rod in the center of one garden, but now, I think a ladder is just what that spot needs! I have an antique copper boiler I use for a garden in the summer and to hold greens, branches and berries in the winter. One of my favorite garden features is a tub from an old, old three legged washing machine that I found on a remote part of our property where a home once stood. The tub is cast iron and the inside is the most beautiful shade of aqua. The rest of the machine had rusted well beyond being salvaged. You should have seen to look on my husband’s face when I drove the tractor into the yard with that thing on board! Surprise!
Why is *that* in your garden?
This beautiful warm weather we’ve had the last few days in the Carolinas has given me the itch, too! I went by our local garden center here yesterday, but it was for Valentine Outdoor Decor, and a lady was buying knock-out roses to plant. I did clean out all my pots, ridding them of dead plants. Felt so good to get a little dirt under the nails! 🙂
Love your ideas! Can’t wait to see your twist on each as you incorporate them in your garden. I know they will all be fabulous!

Barb, what a wonderful trip, that palace I unbelievable and the gardens amazing. I have several family members that go there year after year for vacation and they never tire of what it has to offer. They are also huge history buffs!

Looks like a lot of fun, Barb! I’ve never toured there, just visited. I would love to go if I could get my homebody family away from the beach!

Barb I love the picture of you and your honey, great picture of both of you. Oh how I want to go back, you did a fabulous job showing us Williamsburg. The Rockefeller kitchen cupboards reminded me of my color in the kitchen, and oh how I want that sink and stove. I am a throw back of the 1930s I guess. Loved my guided tour with you,
