Garden Chair Makeover



                                                               Hello everyone,
                         It was a beautiful sunny spring day today and I was happy to go out and do some cleanup in the garden today. There are a lot more birds in the garden now so I enjoy their comings and goings as I work. After some spring cleaning indoors and out, I decided to give my $4 old wicker chairs a little makeover. They were natural and a bit weathered when I bought them but I thought the marina blue color from the door of the boathouse would perk them up a bit. I made the crochet throw on the weekend ha!ha!-just kidding! As you probably already know it was another thrift shop find-as were the Dutch wooden shoes.
This morning our pond was still mostly soft ice but as the day went on it all melted. We even had a pair of ducks swim around it for awhile.
                               The chairs will probably get tucked away in the garden somewhere but until then they will stay here on the veranda.
                                                   The wreath on the door-a $5. find!
                                           I need to cover a couple of pillows and my little project will be done.

                          The temperature is going up quite a bit as the week goes on, so the grass will soon be green again.
                                                              Inside looking out.
                                           Oh happy day, some colour in the garden

                    The boathouse is pretty much done inside now but needs to be painted and then the fun will begin. I have been collecting some linens,curtains etc. over the winter and I am excited to be able to 'play' in there soon.

I am joining BNOTP for Metamorphis Monday.

Thank you for visiting me,
Carolyn
