Potting Shed Continues....

This morning I added a little more stenciling...Dragonfly and flower,Another fern...Brick with Morning Glory Vine.Top of the door with the Morning Glory Vine, dragonfly, butterfly and Hummingbird.
Straw hat...need to stencil some wording on the door...Need some suggestions for that too. I'm not finished with the stenciling of the flowers just got tired after a couple of hours. Have a sick kid I kept going in the house to check on, husband dug up Azalea bushes I had to put in some pots to grow and then I had to plant some seeds. Click to enlarge!!
Actually took a decent pic of some sparrows!!

Darla, I put my cot in the car today. Just let me know when I can take a Florida vacation and stay in your new little 'home.' It's too pretty to be called a Potting Shed. You better give it a much nicer name!!!!!
Hugs,
Betsy

Darla, I thought I had left a comment on your last post-maybe it got lost in cyber space. :) Anyway, your shed is sweet. The walk way looks great. I know your flowers will add even more too it.

The stenciling is very nice. That's something I love to do also. My only syggestion is to ground the picket fence a little more. It looks like it's floating now. Try adding some grass, a few more flowers and maybe a small bush. Great job!

Was the sparrow to show me you could? :) Getting there.

I think the brick needs a little grass in front of(or around it) it like the flower pots have.

It is really looking good.

I am so behind. I love the potting shed. I want it!!! I have been so busy with Mommy and baby. I miss blogging but hopefully things will calm down soon. Happy New year!

You can be so proud of your garden house;(it is much more than a potting shed) It will be your refuge, when you want somewhere very quiet and meditative.My suggestion is to put in a comfy chair and a shelve for your gardening books. Your stencilling is very pretty and you do it with flair.

Thanks for the encourgement ya'll. We were talking yesterday about the fence and the pots needing more grass. It might have to float today though, we will see.
