 Isn't this the perfect summer setting?

I'm in love with gray wicker mixed with pink roses.

Pretty gardens in last week's Mod Mix Monday...

 Pam of Everyday Living shared her "Not So" Secret Garden.

 Jane of Honey and Roses painted this little dresser. I love the finish on this!

 Jan of Just Jan shared summer blues.

 lots of interesting garden art and many hydrangeas.

Ellen of Scribbler Unfocused has been working like a mad woman on her living room

She's doing a total overhaul and this week she shared the table she painted.

Phyllis of Grandparents Plus shared miniature garden inspiration. I love the tiny lights added to this garden.

Oh...I love this comforter! How fun is this bedroom? I know it's not practical cause there is

a staircase right next to the bed and a piano on one side but I like the look of it all.

Especially that comforter.

Summer will soon be upon us and I found inspiration in last week's Mod Mix Monday.

  Priscilla shared how to make a cute daisy wreath but take a look at her yard 

and all the pretty things blooming in it!

Priscilla also shared her latest chalkboard art.

 Jan of Just Jan shared a table all set for dining outdoors.

 She also shared her flower filled living room. 

Very Chintzy! In a very good way.

Just Jan

Mod Mix Monday #192

 I'm working on my outdoor spaces today.

Oh...how I'd love to have a big mirror in my landscape!

But I'd never put a mirror in my yard...too dangerous. 

Not just the aspect of it breaking...but the fact that it might catch my yard on fire.

Rare, but it does happen in our bright sun.

A friend of my Mom lost her house to fire caused by a old television

she'd put out by the side of the road for trash pick up.

She'd set it out there and the reflection of the sun's rays caught the grass on fire!

It was in the middle of the day when no one was home and it spread quickly and burned her house down!

It's that just awful?

So, no mirrors in my landscape - thank you.

I did put a tv out by the side of the road once before I knew this story.

Thankfully, nothing happened.

But...back to our inspiration picture...It's wonderful isn't it?

I adore that zinc table and the turquoise garden stool.

Oh...I adore the whole space.

Speaking of garden stools.....

I've had my eye on a garden stool at Pier 1 for ages. I think I need it for my front porch.

 It's on sale as was...

This yellow casbah chair. 

I've had one for two years and finally went and got it a mate.

 While there I saw this new collection called Capella. This is the Capella dining chair.

It looks like kubu wicker but it's vinyl. 

I am seriously considering two of these to use as host and hostess chairs in my dining room - indoors.

Well, I missed Mod Mix Monday last week...

I had too much going on...but let's catch up now...shall we?

 Patti of Old Things New shared her bird bath all planted in succulents. Isn't it creative? 

Especially with the picture hanging above spilling over.

 Cielo of Little White Cottage in the Woods shared her southern garden. 

Lots to envy here.

 Ann at Tarnished Royalty made over her dining room. 

I love the wall color and what a great idea is it to hang a typewriter on the wall?

Love it!

Colleen of 58 Water Street took a rickety dirty little chair and turned it in to a Mid Century Wonder.

It's the coolest now!

Darrielle of DD's Cottage made these french chests something special.

Now If I'd just finish up some of my own projects! 

Today I'm painting the wicker settee I bought for my front porch.

We had so much rain...I couldn't get it done.

But today is the day!
