Vintage Inspiration Friday #26 Thinking of Spring


This time of year I start thinking about Spring.
Not just "Spring", but more specifically,
thinking about plants and flowers for my deck and porch;
bringing some color back into my life and surroundings.



I bought the book, Carolyn Westbrook Home,
several years ago and have found endless inspiration.
One of my favorite segments is at the end of the book;

The Potting Shed



Everything about this setting speaks to my vintage heart;
old metal chairs, shutters, chippy white table, old iron gate, garden statuary.
The old metal basket, and even a beautiful way to display broken concrete urns.

I adore this rusty iron and chippy paint gate.




And even the canning jars with a seed packet;
a simple display, but lots of impact.






Oh, to have a place for bags of soil, garden utensils, pots and ideas!



If you haven't seen this wonderful book,
you'll really enjoy it.
It's one of my all time favorites!

And now;
Take a look at some great inspiration from last week!
