Shabby Garden Stuff

I am preparing for a huge flea market fest this weekend! I must get my shop cart with shabby liner ready for the big weekend! I just love finding new antiques and shabby collectibles out there.  One of my favorite things to hunt for of course is more garden goods! Anything from France is great! But anything rusty, chippy, wiry, old is definitely making it's way into my cart..that is if it can fit! LOL One of my girlfriends has a huge wire plantstand in her garden...full of florals and potted plants..looks amazing!!! So maybe I should think about adding a vintage rusty bird bath like this one....I could put gorgeous geraniums and posies in it maybe? I would love to add water to it and watch the birds bathe...as I sit in my cozy garden chair with a good book....remember only 20 minutes! LOL But I fear our black "devil" cat would prey on those furry little creatures and I just could not live with myself if that happened. Maybe I"ll fill it with ivy for now! :)

So until then I will go prepare for my huge weekend!!! :) Thank heavens dh is watching our bundle of 3! LOL I could not take them with and be able to haul back a huge truck full of treasures! LOL So I think dh is telling me I can grab another 20 min out in my garden to casually read! So I will be off for now!!!! :) Have a great day everyone!

You've gotta come check out some of the shops here in St. Louis. Gringo Jones is an import shop, but some REALLY cool iron stuff that would be REALLY neat shabbied up!

That's all at your HOUSE??? Oh my...I'm embarrassed that you have been in mine now. I have NO style whatsoever!!!

You need to come down here and go Shabby Chic-ing at the Orange Circle - they have some great stuff!!

I love those planters and I am so sad that we don't have any flea markets like that in my area. Better yet I would love to go with you someday. Such great finds. Is'nt shabby so great, it can be so individual and yet you can find soooo many great things to spice up your collections. I love this stuff!!!!
