I love to drive real slow through my neighborhood and check out all the great gardens and landscapes! People may think I am weird at times, but I get lots of great new ideas for my own yard.
Just this afternoon while driving home from church I noticed a porch with two black rod iron chairs. One on each side of the front door.
They had cut a hole in the seat of each chair and placed a basket of beautiful little purple flowers. I thought it was a great idea! I see chairs just like it in the trash every so often. Next time I see chairs like this I am going to garbage pick them, buy some spray paint and copy the idea. I hope they don't mind ;).
We also have a cabin on our farm and I set the same system up there. We are only there about every 7 to 10 days and it looks beautiful.
