Pink in the Garden

Yummy pink walls in a garden room. So unexpected.

Pink is not the first color you'd think of for garden accessories but it sure works well in these examples.

I'm trying to pull my garden and yard together. I feel like I'm way behind.

I bought one really big thing tonight for outside that I'll share soon.

In other news...

My kitchen got featured at WhisperWood Cottage.
I was among nine other fantastic white cottage kitchens featured.
Many of them being kitchens I have admired online for awhile.

I still have another kitchen project I finished and I need to post.
I really wanted to post it before the end of the month to be included over there.
Well, I still have two days.

This week did not go as planned.
I ended up working a lot more than scheduled at Pier 1.
Which is ok...it just meant I didn't get things done like I had hoped.

I hope you have a lovely Saturday!

One of the pics I took, in Susanne Hudsons garden. It said via pinterest.....

Small world.

Do you think the top pic is truly a pinky/terra cotta?

Whatever, it's fabulous.

Love all the pics...

Garden & Be Well, XO Tara

In love with the pink chandelier! Sorry you had to work extra (but yay for a larger paycheck). It's been such a delight having you post more regularly and it's great that you're getting some well deserved recognition!

Adore the pink....I want the flowers in the 5th photo down.
What are they? Not roses, right?
Anyway, love them!
Glad to hear you got more hours and I'm so happy you enjoy your job.

I'm repainting my kitchen cabinets white (mine are identical doors) to cover the original brown. I notice your kitchen hinges are white. Did you paint them or are white hinges available? Your posts are inspiring! Thanks.
