Here's the latest project completed.  I've wanted a clock table ever since I saw a cute one in Home Goods.  But it was too costly.  My friend, Val, said I should make it.  Challenge accepted!  I began a hunt for the perfect table and ended up finding one at a consignment store.  It was good because it was wooden and all we really had to do was attach some legs to it.

Spray painting continues.  Unfortunately I don't have the before photos for these pieces.
The two chairs were in miserable shape when I first bought them from an estate sale in San Diego.  They were white and the cushions went straight to the trash!  I painted them black.  But now I am out of the usual black paint era that I always did.  I got new cushions from Walmart and decided to use this mocha color for the chairs.
The table was originally black, (Southern Living at Home table) but I used my leftover marigold yellow to paint it.
The double lounger was in extremely rusted.  Jim sanded it and painted it a cream color.  But NO MORE dull colors!  Going pumpkin orange for the lounger to match the cushions.
I think it all turned out pretty well!

The long awaited fire pit remodel is done!!!  Now we have a place to sit with or without a fire that's NOT in the middle of lava rocks!

First is the BEFORE picture.

It's been a while, but worth the wait to see these beauties!!  These are some of the Iris I got from my neighbor last year.  We weren't sure what they would look like but I am pleasantly surprised!  Who knew I would love Iris!!!

Here is my first attempt at planting bulbs.  I bought these hyacinth's at Costco last year.  Of course, with Costco, there was way more than I thought in the package!  So I couldn't plant them all in the yard.  I planted the rest in three pots which I kept in the garage, per advice from seasoned Idahoans!  Low and behold, they started growing and even did better than the ones in the garden.  So I planted them all in this barrel for the front yard!  So pretty!!!
