FF and FNF

Today I am linking up with two Friday Memes.  Friday Flower Flaunt at Tootsie's and Feathered Nest Friday over at Courtney's.  Everyone that visits here is familiar with Tootsie and all of her projects inside and out.  Although Courtney has a HUGE following, I'm not sure everyone here is familiar with her.  She hosts a meme on Fridays where you share how you are improving your "Nest" inside and out. Her blog is so charming with a romantic feel ...not to mention tons of inspiration.

Pink Glads in bud.  Our first flush of glads were purple. 

First bud on the Brugmansia.

Astilbe bud.  My Astilbes are in their creep year.  Here's to leaping next year!

I was trying to capture the bright reddish/orange color on the blades of this Toffee Twist Carex.

It is really quite eye catching in person.

Sedum dripping off a wheelbarrow.

 Stachys byzantina Lamb's Ear is just about to bloom.  I have read that they have a newer version of the Lamb's Ear that does not bloom and is a slower grower, hmm.

Pendants, Key Chains, Magnets and Brooches made from domino tiles.  Earrings made from scrabble tiles.

The girls are having so much fun wearing the tile jewelry and the feedback from school is "cool"!

Clicking on photos will enlarge them for a closer look..
P.S. I had another MRI on my hip yesterday it went fine.  Results next week, fingers crossed.
