Sometimes you just need a change
My dressing room and dressing table
With a new addition
which I just could not pass up when I was at the garden center on Saturday
for I thought they would be perfect
In the famille rose bowls
They're Avon
but not "for sale" Avon
rather, I think, a gift for sales representatives.
I found one and sometime later I found another
both for little or nothing.
There was a time, I think,
that Avon had some quality "reproductions"
for I've got another -- it's a silver centerpiece
I've not used the bowls much but decided that these bowls
would be perfect as a "cache pot" for the violets.
And while I was gone . . .
The kitchen
Went from this
Trash bags on the windows
Held by duct tape
To nice clean new panes of glass
In the hall upstairs
The window over the sink
And the window that looks into the back garden
There were 18 panes of glass that were either broken or cracked.
And we're still finding pieces of glass here and there
even after sweeping and vacuuming and sweeping and vacuuming again!
But it is nice to be able to see out again.
And we're grateful that the windows were fixed so quickly.
And a pretty day today, we worked in the
herb garden
It's beginning to look respectable!
It's Monday and I'm joining Susan at Between Naps On the Porch for Met Monday. Last Sunday we witnessed what a difference 15 minutes can make and this week we realize what a difference a week makes!

Gosh, I missed something. Were the broken windows from the hail storm? Your herb garden looks great. Thank goodness it wasn't ruined.

I love how spring creates desire make things new. Your changes are beautiful. Very nice!
What a beautiful secluded herb garden! Doesn't the change of seasons bring a rush of energy and a desire to create something new.
A house always has "something to be done" it seems. We will be needing new windows in our house - the whole thing - not just the glass.
I can't figure out why my side bar shows you haven't posted for 4 weeks.
