Knowing that thunderstorms were predicted for Tuesday and neither of us wanted to haul wet mulch, Chris and I had the nursery deliver the other 8 yards yesterday.
This means that we got 15 yards of mulch laid in less than 12 hours. Neither of us can walk upright today, but it's all done.
They weather predictions were accurate. We certainly got lots of rain. Unfortunately, this means lots of mosquitoes later. Those pesky bugs are the enemy with our poor Josie. She has such a terrible reaction to mosquito bites...sigh.
Today has been the perfect day to be curled up inside with my glue gun!! When we leave later this week to visit our friends, we'll be bringing an early birthday present for their daughter. I decided she needed a fairy house. The variations on
these houses are endless.
I took apart the leaves from a silk flower arrangement and used my glue gun to attach the leaves and flower blossoms to the roof. I also used them to frame shutters around the windows.
I hope she enjoys it. Tomorrow is my day of
thrifting & antiquing with my mom and sister. I can hardly contain myself!!
