A walk to the potting shed

I thought I would share some *rusty whites* from
outside my potting shed today.

My shed still needs some work inside, but it will probably be a work in progress for awhile. I do have great plans to get it finished next year though.

This basket and the window box (in the 2nd photo)
hang outside the front of the shed.
There was a wooden window box here , but it rotted
and fell apart this year so I opted to put a
wire one up and I do like it.

love the curly wire

Love these window box brackets too.
I don't even remember where I bought these
as I have had them for several years.
Four of them just perfect for two window boxes.

This is still the old wooden window box on the west
side of the shed. It is falling apart too so we
will have to replace it soon as well.

I just plopped these clay pots and insulators in here
for now until next year when it is planted again.
I might put some greens in it at Christmas time
as I think that would look great!

I am linking up with White Wednesday again this week. I think by now you know the drill , but just in
case you don't...visit Kathleen over at Faded Charm
for more beautiful posts.
Blessings~

Wonderful Chippy Rusty Find ~

Isn't this the greatest shabby find ?? I found it last Friday on our adventures around the county.
We stopped at a garage sale, one of my favorite thrift stores and another little store that I LOVE and that is where I found this item. I really don't know if you would call it a table or what, but I can just see pots of herbs or flowers sitting in it and trailing over the side. Any other ideas?
I would love to hear them...
When I saw that this gem was only 5.99 I just had to pick it up. The people who own the store know me by name and the gentleman could not believe I would want this rusty old thing. I said YES of course I do! (LOL) I told him my husband was sitting out in the car and would be shaking his head when I carried it out and boy was I spot on. TOO FUNNY! But hubby really doesn't mind what I buy...he is just a cabinet builder (on the side) and still hasn't figured out why people would want things that are chippy, rusty and distressed looking.
I will say though that he doesn't mind at all what I carry in the house and is very easy going with my style of decorating. Have a wonderful day filled with unexpected blessings ~
