Spring Has Sprung!


 
I'm so busy this time
of the year.







Gardening, setting up 
irrigation lines 
and trying to get 
a little sewing done.



I have been looking for 

English cucumber seeds forever. 

😊 This year I found some 😊

I'm a happy girl!





Do you save seeds 
and 
trade with friends?  
It's a great way to save money.
 



Here are a few photos 
of some little cloth baskets 
I made this week. 
I saw the idea on Pinterest
and had to try it. 








I hope you're all 
having a wonderful week.

The weather is lovely here 
and I've been outside 
working and coming in 
exhausted and dirty 
each evening. 

I'm not complaining! 

I've been waiting 
for spring all winterπŸ₯°

God bless you all 
and 
keep smiling.

Flowers & Goodwill Finds

 



Today my friend and I 

planted these flowers 

out by my front door. 

She had given me them as 

a thank you for helping her 

make the quilt for her great grandson.


 The stepping stone in front

 of them is from 2008 

and has footprints of 

my granddaughters when they were 

little girls. 

It's a treasure.



I went to Home Depot 

this morning to buy some things 

for my drip lines and while 

I was in town I stopped off at 

the Goodwill. 

I haven't been there 

in a very long time. 

I scored these two metal canisters 

for dog treats, 

aren't they adorable? 




Then I saw these two dark blue coffee 

cups and this pretty aqua bottle. 

I love putting bottles 

in my windows with just one or two 

little flowers in them.




This wreath looks like lavender
but it is actually plastic.
I like these kinds of artificial flowers
because they look like new
after a few minutes in warm soapy water.

.


Next is my chicken wire holder 

with three mason jars. 

I think it will be beautiful 

with flowers in it 

this summer. 


Well that's my treasures. 

I spent $20.50 for everything. 

didn't need a single thing 

but when does that stop us 

when it's a bargain, right! 

All of you ladies know what 

that's all about. πŸ’•


Have a sweet day 

and 

God bless you.

P.S. I did this post on my phone,

and sometimes the fonts are

impossible to fix.

My phone has a mind of it's own πŸ˜–

What Have You Been Doing?






I've been helping a friend
make a quilt for her 
great grandson.






Isn't it pretty,
He is going to love it.





I had so much fun helping her :)




Myself I've been doing Spring yard work.





And making a few more cards.

That's my post . . .
short and sweet :)

I hope you have a wonderful
week.

God bless you all!
