Spring Pansies & Mod Podge

During our grocery store run on Saturday, the girls helped me pick out pansies. Pansies are my bridge from winter to spring. They're the first flowers I can plant that I know will withstand freezing nights, cold snaps, a surprise frost, and a few snowflakes.

They also remind me of my Grandma Hurst who always planted loads of them around the front of her house.

My mother gave me a brown wooden wheelbarrow last fall and I honestly forgot about it until Chris was organizing the garage this past week.

I spent a few minutes searching Graphics Fairy and came across this beautiful image and I combined it with a French ledger sheet.

With a little mod podge and some protective spray finish, I now have a fun display for my new pansies.

My little wheelbarrow is going to take up residence on my covered front porch, but the yard makes a much nicer backdrop. Have a splendid week ahead.

We're hoping to have our first picnic in our treehouse later this afternoon.

On Monday night, I'll be announcing an Easter give-away.

I've had a fun week in my craftroom during our spring break.
I also managed to pick up a few vintage Easter items to share.

XOXO
