Summer Greetings, Outside and Inside

I got some shots of the front "porch" area and the foyer. It is amazing that Memorial day weekend is almost here. You couldn't tell by our weather. I hope you all have a great weekend and maybe have some plans. So, WELCOME!!!
 My large urn never gets sun, so I have to plant shade loving plants in here. I put a caladium, some peach and white impatiens and a potato vine in it. I also added some curly willow sticks to support the caladium as it gets bigger.
 A peach kalanchoe is in a pot and one of my bunnies says hello.
 This gorgeous begonia is such a pretty color!
 I have had this pot in the house all winter. Last year I found the coleus plants coming up from seed in the yard so planted them in a pot with another plant and they have survived the winter.
 My brown bunny holds petunias.
 On the walk coming up to the door my large pot has a peach geranium and I forget what is in the small pot but it also has orange flowers.
 A bluish/purple petunia is in the hanging pot. That is a bluebird feeder that Joe made. We watch them eating from the dining room.

 Come on in! Most of you know that these stairs are one of the things that sold me on this house. I knew I would line them with some of my blue and white jars.
 For Summer I have added pretty blue rings to the candles and placed blue birds by them.

 Most of the blue birds came from Michaels last year.
 The rings all came from Joann Fabrics.

 The candles come on with a remote.
 I love lighting them at night. I can see them from here at my desk.
Thanks so much for your visit. I hope you have a great weekend but remember the reason for the holiday. We would not live in peace without the sacrifice so many have made for our freedom.

Some Winter Vignettes

I have cabin fever BAD! It has snowed, then freezing rain, then rain and still cold. I long for Spring so in the mean time I move things around, creating new vignettes to enjoy. I thought I would share some with you. We have dinner group here this coming Sat. so Sunday I will be bringing out the BUNNIES!!! I can't wait! I will be sharing them soon and I hope you'll come back to see.  For now here is what I have done around here lately. This first picture is in my office. I am moving a lot of the African things in here but that will be another post.:)
 The stairway has the blue and white pots but new candles that are on a remote and springy candle rings. I also added one of my favorite elephants.
 I moved these 2 pieces from the foyer to this tiered piece.   As my friend Shirley from Housepitality Designs says, the accessory shuffle:)
 The water bearer is a favorite piece that I inherited. The faux bonsai tree on the other side of the elephant lamp. Those lamps were inherited also. They were purchased by my FIL in India.
 This table gets changed out many times a year.

 I added some more blue and white to this sofa table.
 In this corner by the hearth I have my faux orchid, another jar and in the planter I added faux green apples and my iron sphere.


 The back of the screen is painted with bamboo so pretty from this side too!
 I put my Christmas cactus in this footed pot. It also has handles that you can't see.

I have enjoyed these vignettes for several weeks and soon some things will move again.  I can't be still sometimes:) I have even been thinking about how I might be able to rearrange the furniture. We'll see.
XO, Pinky
