My
4Th. of July weekend was not a
walk in the park!I've done something to my lower back and
it hurts like
HELL (pardon my french).

I seem to be popping
Ibuprofen
like they were
M&Ms.
I was able to spend a
little time in the garden,
but wasn't able to do all I had hoped to.

I did manage to finish a
little project I've been thinking
about since the beginning of
Summer.My gardening shed is so
ugly, I'm always
trying to camouflage it the best I can.

I decided to make a
little black board to hang on
one of the doors. Just a little novelty, mostly
just for looks.
I covered an old frame from the basement
with some
crafting moss.
One coat of
chalkboard paint.
Six coats of
chalkboard paint.

I think it turned out
okay, but I wish it was a little
bigger.
Oh well, I can
live with it.
I bought this little wind chime...
the first time I put it outside the
graphic
washed off.I decided I could still make it work
and stenciled the number three on it.

Do you
remember me telling you about the
geraniums I wintered in my basement?
You go girl - everything looked great. And hope your back is better.

So sorry your back hurts, mind is also hurting, too much lifting and not enough blogging :) The geraniums are miraculous and look beautiful, so full and colorful. I think your new mossy blackboard is perfect, but I did notice you had checked off everything but REST - I hope you get some rest today so your back will feel better :)
ReplyDeleteLove the mossy blackboard! Your garden is lovely,sit and enjoy it and rest your back.
ReplyDeleteI love your garden and the mossy chalkboard...cute idea!! : )
ReplyDeleteHope you're better soon. I love the chalkboard, it's a fun idea.
ReplyDeleteI hope you are feeling better! I love your garden! You did a wonderful job on your chalk board! Did you water your geraniums when they were in your basement? That is so great that they came back out for you like that!
