Well I have used a few of the items I picked up at the dump the other day! I made this.
I just white washed the window a bit and screwed in a plant box and added a barn star. This is a window screen that I got already painted green It was a little to bright for me so I sanded it off a bit and sealed it then I stenciled “My Secret Garden” on it and nailed on a lady bug.
It is still a little bright for me but I am sure someone at the farmers market will like it. Next I made a couple of birdhouse stakes. I didn’t get the posts from the dump, I got them from a salvage place for $2.00 a long time ago and just hadn’t gotten around to doing anything with them until now.
I also have most of the chair towel holder done but the paint is drying still and I need to switch gears and get my lesson ready for church tomorrow. I am happy with the results of things, and best of all the weather has been beautiful, so working outside was lovely.
Its been a busy day

Very creative!
Are selling them all at your local farmers market? Or keeping some of it?
Its been pouring rain here all weekend, heavy rain. Today looks better- little cloudy but windy and cold. Hope to get some your nice weather soon!

Yes they will go to the farmers market, although I am tempted to keep the window bow, it turned out so well. No rain here, but we are wishing for it!!
