A Little Hydrangea Love!


You know how it goes....

I was going to check out one little thing on the computer...well that one little thing became a bigger thing and now I'm posting for White Wednesday.

Today, I'm in the midst of a mess!

I'm pulling out everything and pricing it for the Monticello Garden Show, which opens April 8th.

I'm very easily side tracked as pricing is not one of my favorite things to do.


After work today I decided to stop by the store and see what kind of flowers were arriving for Spring.

I'm pretty confident Spring is on it's way it's just a matter of time before the weather shows it.

The first thing I spotted when I walked through the door was white Hydrangeas!

A must have!

I can't wait for them to come up in my own garden.


While out treasure hunting this week-end I came across this old torn album.

Even though it's shabby and worn it still it quite beautiful and is full of sweet old photos.


Well, I'm off to do some more pricing!

Thank you for stopping by!

Be sure to check out all the other wonderful blogs that are participating in White Wednesday.

Farm Fresh Eggs


I don't raise chickens but I sure do admire all the fabulous chicken coops I see out there.

I was fortunate today to have a friend share her beautiful chicken eggs with me.


I wish you could see how small they are and how really beautiful the colors are.

My photos do not do them justice.

There wasn't a white egg in the bunch.

It sounds silly but they're almost too pretty to eat!

Farmhouse Style


Because I'm not on top of the game, as far as taking photos, this week.

I thought I'd share with you some beautiful pictures from one of my favorite books, New Farmhouse Style.

I love this great old cabinet against the white walls.

And the urn with white Hyacinths.

Love the smell of Hyacinths!


Another favorite, old wicker baskets, love the contrast against the white....WONDERFUL!


Snowballs....love those!

I can't wait for my Snowball tree to bloom!

Then last...Peonies.

Another flower I'm looking forward to picking!


I'm joining Kathleen of Faded Charm for White Wednesday!

Thank you for stopping by and taking a look at these pictures from New Farmhouse Style!

Stashing Away!


Well, things are starting to accumulate around here.

Remember that clean dining room I had in a previous post....well, it's being filled up with treasures for the Garden Show at Monticello next month.


My storage room is full, I've borrowed space in my parent's garage...

so, any new furniture I happen to find from now until the beginning of April will land in the dining room!

You do what you gotta do!

Fortunately, this week-end found us hauling concrete pieces.

Well, fortunate for me that is, my #1 did some big time lifting!


The good thing about concrete is that it can be stored outside and still look great!

So if you're in the neighborhood on April 8th through May 30th be sure to stop by and enjoy the Monticello Garden Show.

Happy White Wednesday!
