Ready, Set, Yard Sales!

There is only one thing that gets my heart rate up faster than the first blooms of spring...the first yard sales of spring!!  I bought this old galvanzed bucket last year and finally got around to painting it this cool green color.  It was missing something so I called on Barb (my artsy sister) and look how she jazzed it up!  I can just see it with a big fat pink geranium sitting in it.

Just this past Saturday I thought I'd check the paper to see if any sales were advertised.  I thought it would be a long shot-- but there were a couple.  I bought this (heavy) concrete pitcher at an estate sale.  I paid $18 (which is a bit much for me) but I really thought it was pretty.  Actually I'm sure it was worth it; it is in great shape.  I already have it sitting in its place of honor by my white arbor.
