Garden Urns, Winnings and Ferns

I Won! Oh Yes I did!

Isn't it exciting when you are following a giveaway on a favorite blog and you just keep hoping you actually might win?

Suzanne at

Southern Inspirations

was the generous gift giver! She truly has a delightful blog that will no doubt lift your spirits with her upbeat personality and great decorating hints and ideas.

Suzanne, I just received my gift yesterday and have already marked several pages. There are great recipes that look very worthy of trying, plus hints for May Day flower baskets to give and even ideas for April Fool's Day. Thank you so much! You really cheered me up with this gift.

This is really a nice publication jammed packed with great pictures and articles. You just may want to find a copy for yourself, everyone!

On another subject, I wanted to tell you about a little getaway "girls night out" some friends and I enjoyed a few days ago. We traveled just a bit and enjoyed dinner at a nice restaurant plus visiting a gift shop featuring all sorts of springy things to entice our minds and souls. It was sort of a garden urns and lush ferns theme. I actually purchased some urns to use for my upcoming show.

Of course ferns are a great look in these garden pots, but there are also many other ideas for using these little gems.

To the left we have a bit of pink and green springy/summery potpourri ~~~~

Or you might want to use an orb in a round urn for a very different look.

These little orbs are great in urns, or pots and often times just tucked in with books on a shelf. They have been so popular, that I find myself reordering them frequently.

I love, love, love nasturtiums ~ faux ones and yes! even real ones! :-)

I sell this faux one in yellow and a sort of paprika red. They *look* so* real..........

If you like ferns with your urns, I can do that too We have small ones We have medium size ones

We have mixed ferns

What did you say?

You want a royal fern?

Oh! a River fern, okay!

Or perhaps you still prefer a good old fashioned

Boston Fern

Remember, the only water required is just enough to clean them occasionally!
