LIE DOWN IN MY GARDEN AND LOOK UP!!!!

I like to lie down in my garden and  then look up because some times I see stuff like THIS!

I call this photo... 

'Bird  and large insect with curly feelers against a cotton-ball filled sky!' 

add 1/2 teaspoon of whimsy ...

When you put things together that you like…

The result is usually quite FUN!!!!

The crazy world of flower appendages

Take a moment, and LOOK at a Tiger Lily while lying on the ground directly BENEATH IT…. 

You will notice that unlike other lily garden dwellers, the Tiger Lily has long thin appendages that seem to be floating in the air saying "Weeeeeeeeeee!"

Tiger Lilys are DEFINITELY HAPPY FLOWERS!

Color Infringement!

 Today's topic is COLOR INFRINGEMENT!

 Color  Infringement also known as Color Oozing , is the unintentional infringement of a color upon the appearance of something unintended to be infringed upon!

Anyway you look at it... it's FABULOUS!

  This is The Story of 

My Most Fabulous Garden Lantern 

******

YOU JUST HAVE TO SEE MY NEW LANTERN!

It is covered in the most beautiful flowers...

 and it just is THE most fabulous THING!

I decided that in order to honor my new lantern, I would have to put it, in the ABSOLUTE most perfect spot! 

 I set the lantern in one of my gardens; it has a peaceful theme. I was immediately filled with confident admiration and certainty that this would be the ideal placement!

But then...just moments later...I had the urge to hang the lantern from a hook, high up on my deck!!! ... it really looked so perfect and I thought..."YES! YES! YES! ...that's it for sure!" 

It might have been just an instant later, when I found myself running with the lantern, then setting it  down...this time right in the center of one of my flower gardens! I've now created the backdrop for a fabulous garden affair!

But wait! Look at it hanging on  my whimsical garden hook!!! ... "Without question…it has added to my garden’s cottage flair!" 

At that point, I was in a ‘lantern frenzy’ and paused to set it down on a rocking chair!


Next, I’m going to bring my new lantern INTO the house - Does anyone want to see how it looks in there?

Of course, It looked good in every single  room of my house! 

And before I knew what had hit me...I was compelled to carry my lantern back out to the garden again...

I finally had the realization that...
 MY LANTERN LOOKS GOOD EVERYWHERE I PUT IT AND... EVERYWHERE I PUT IT LOOKS GOOD! 

Oh! I must tell you the best part ... the thing that adds to the spectacular-ness of my lantern!!!! The candle inside is battery operated...and has a TIMER in it... so it lights up ON IT'S OWN at the same time every night!

My heartfelt thanks for this floral design masterpiece lantern, to my amazing friend Stephen, owner of www.artsflowersmn.com!!!  

Just a little peak ..

There’s something about an old fashioned screened door on a room … that beckons you…and makes you want to go inside.

Were should we sit?

This is my absolute favorite place to sit.  This is my sanctuary.  My husband and I created this together from an absolutely barren and stark patch of nothingness.
