Are you ready for this day...I'm not...I stayed at Mom's last nite stayed up till 12 midnight crocheting for me...but after I went to bed Mom seem to wiggle and talk up a storm in her sleep...So I feel as if I didn't have any...You know how your sleeping but you heard everything that's going on around you...so really your not in a sound sleep...I could crawl rite back into bed and sleep the day away..And that is never me...but today yes it is..But even so I thought today I would share my find in my storage...I had simply forgot about it...and it's funny cause all this time I just love it but never realized what it was for...just thought decoration..
Isn't it just sweet, it has a little ware on the leaf which it never had before..but I guess many many years of storage heat etc....
A pretty wheelbarrow.....
It's funny I had brought it home days ago...and in the morning yesterday as I whizzed by the tiny pansy garden, I thought O wow, that's what it's for...so I rushed in the house of course going to grab it up and I was like wow how come I never realized it before??? Well better late then never rite...
The little piece on top is removable, so I removed it added some water made sure it didn't leak...and started adding the sweet little pansy's I picked from the little patch that lives in the blue Garden which hasn't quite formed yet because they took over and I just couldn't bare to move them out in fear they mite not be happy and die..so for now they will remain...
I just loved that I finally figured it out after all these years, well I might have sooner but it's been in storage for more than 10 years...just terrible every time I think of it. well least I'm finally getting it cleaned up some more...a couple of years ago I down sized it to a smaller one..I have been trying to go there and go through things and get rid of them...I guess at times I'm like Mom and don't want to rid of my life's things...but I have to just like before...it's a must cause one I haven't the room for the things. My place is a small flat these days..no more large house...I'm getting older and need to at least let go of some things...
I hope that you have enjoyed my vintage wheel barrow...all full of tiny pansy's from the garden...
AND NOW TO SHARE PHOTO OF THE FINISHED TEA BAG HOLDER W/NECLACES ON THEM...

SEE HOW WELL THEY MATCH, I STILL HAVE ONE MORE ROW TO COMPLETE BUT HAVEN'T HAD THE CHANCE...SOON THOUGH
HAPPY TEA.......
That's just the cutest little wheel barrow! I think, during the winter, after the pansies have gone to sleep, you might put some potpourri in it. Or, as the pansies begin to wilt, dry the flowers and use them! :-)
ReplyDeleteThe doilies are just beautiful.
Enjoy your day!
