Lovely photos... I love the one of the porch and rag rug... looks so homey and comfortable. What are the plants that you have in the tea tins? Succulents? Makes me wish I was a tea drinker... I'll have to be on the lookout for tins when I am thrifting.
I love the tin idea! Can I ask where you found tea in a tin? Rag rugs are the best for so many reasons, nostalgia being #1. I wonder if that plant (love in a mist - love it!) would grow here ...
and that's another reason I love visiting you! Beautiful simplicity, and a seemingly slower pace. Although, I'm sure much busyness goes on behind the posts (as with all of us). Are you still canning, or has that slowed down a bit for you? We moved this summer, so no garden goodies to can. :o(
Deb, LOVE the tins idea, I have one I have been saving for SOMETHING. Did you put something in the bottom for drainage or are the plants fine without? Carla
So far, just freezing {blueberries, blackberries} and some dehydrating. The most amount of canning I do is of tomatoes, which won't be ready for a little while yet.
I just found your blog and LOVE it! And the picture of the laundry room? If that were mine, it might stay that way for two days or until I used it! LOL.
Thank you for taking time to leave a comment--I love reading each and every one! I will try to answer any questions you have in the comment section. Due to the amount of spam, I am sadly no longer able to accept Anonymous comments....Kindly, Deb

ReplyDeleteI adore the tea tin planters! I am a tea addict, and I never know what to do with the sweet tins. Problem solved. : ) Beautiful, thanks.
ReplyDeleteLoved all the photos...just my style!

Carla, I didn't do anything special for drainage. I'm careful not to overwater--guess I'll see how it works out...so far, so good.

ReplyDeleteThanks Dianne!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome :)
ReplyDeleteSometimes hard to find in my area--I love ordering my tea from englishteastore.com, especially when they offer free shipping.
ReplyDeleteThanks Claire--the last month has been quite hot and dry, we could really use some of your rain!
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog and LOVE it! And the picture of the laundry room? If that were mine, it might stay that way for two days or until I used it! LOL.
ReplyDeleteIt's not usually that neat-in fact it's usually a losing battle to control the laundry clutter :-)
