~~~New Pillows On the Bench~~~

 Good Sunday afternoon! I hope you all had a great weekend! I wanted to share the new pillows I have for the bench out front.  I actually bought them last year, in anticipation of the move. BTW, this time last year the basement was dug:):)  So, here they are: The green with white piping blends well with the seat cushion.
 This is a house plant that ALMOST died but I have nursed it back to health:) Trouble is, I don't know what it is!!!!:) I am gradually getting all of my flowers and plants into pretty, ceramic pots; inside and out!
 I just LOVE the crispness of the black and white! It is cooling to me.I actually found these pillows at Joann fabric, on clearance last year!
 We are lucky, this is a nice shady spot, never gets any sun, so perfect for a place to relax. The windows are the dining room, so I can see out to the bird feeder from the dining room. The blue birds are still around, in fact, I think they had a new brood!!! I love my crane's but I see I better get out ther and wipe them off, DIRTY BIRDS:):)
 Joe and I sit out here in the afternoon and/or evenings when it cools down SOME. Soon, we will be able to sit on our deck or patio!!!! HOPEFULLY work is supposed to start this week.  Have a great week, my friends. XO, Pinky

  4. I like your new pillows and the retreat like atmosphere you created for sitting there. The flower looks possibly like a "4 o' clock " plant.If it is...you can easily plant from seeds....flower bloom opens in afternoon and comes in various colors. Not sure that is what it is...

  17. Good Afternoon Pinky, Your pillows are so lovely and very striking.
    I love your bench, it almost looks like there are tree branches inter-twined at the back of the bench.
    It is a beautiful place to sit and drink a cup of coffee.
    Best Wishes
