She added old brackets and wood for shelving to the wall above to make a potting bench. The copper has a nice patina to it now.<br /><br /> I have enjoyed these posts, Nita! <br /><br />xo,<br />RJRicki Treleavenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00363865916909018452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1518721847478228439.post-6925146853181503202012-04-14T17:25:40.104-05:002012-04-14T17:25:40.104-05:00Nita...I have been kind of absent for a while but ...Nita...I have been kind of absent for a while but so glad to read that you are doing better and life is a bit more positive for you!

You've had to deal with a lot of painful life hurdles,and it would be far too easy to just give up on living and move into survival-only mode. It is a testament to who you are deep down that you have not lost your way. (And maybe a little bit of Someone Watching Over You.) I'm so delighted that Franklin has brought you joy. He seems like a perfect lap buddy. <br /><br />I think leaving Target behind is a good move, and will continue to pray that doors will open in employment that satisfy your needs as well as your soul. <br /><br />And, hey, just as a precaution, I've already asked for your protection against the ugly weather that has been forecast for your area today. You're welcome. ;)<br /><br />It WILL get better. I'm living my own proof of that.HollyMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00328847575486408637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1518721847478228439.post-17823513291289910132012-04-14T13:44:25.415-05:002012-04-14T13:44:25.415-05:00Never get enough of potting benches, and I'm s...Never get enough of potting benches, and I'm so glad you're feeling positive about life and much better! <br />xoxo!Debra@CommonGroundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04830455848744270459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1518721847478228439.post-92007964271154541722012-04-14T08:43:03.644-05:002012-04-14T08:43:03.644-05:00I don't know your whole story but I did read a...I don't know your whole story but I did read about your jobs at Target and Pier One. I admire you so much for doing what you have to do to make it. I lost the "dog of my heart" seven years ago so I understand that pain. I have two more now and I love them dearly but that "one" will always be in my heart. I'm glad you are feeling better and pray you will continue to find joy in life.

I've always wanted one. You've inspired me to try and pull one together some way, some how.<br /><br />So glad you are feeling better. Nothing like doggy kisses and potting benches for fabulous pick-me-ups!

I'm so glad you found your Franklin. He was just what your little family needed. I totally get the wiener thing NOW. My little Hattie is in my lap as I type this. :)<br />Last year I used an old resin fireplace and put an old table in front of it. Just the mantel showed and on top of that I placed a huge triangular piece of molding that I found at ReStore. On the table itself I used 2 glass blocks to brace a board that was stacked with terra cotta pots. Underneath I pushed a little wagon full of garden "stuff"...I guess what I'm trying to say is, I didn't have a "plan" but just gathered together things I liked and then it all just magically fell together. <br />I can't wait to see what you come up with. You have such a great EYE that I know it will be fabulous.<br />xoxo - Cindi<br />(I love that violet one!)Cindi Myershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01475347748831862659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1518721847478228439.post-13318043064080693732012-04-13T19:23:42.889-05:002012-04-13T19:23:42.889-05:00So glad that you are feeling better.

In my old house, I craved a potting bench or table. I did so much gardening. Now there's no time :(.
