I was so happy to spend part of my day beautifying, or prettifying as we sometimes say, this space that we love to use. Our deck now that it has a covering has become and extension of our living space. We eat dinner out there, or go out after dinner and spend time together. Now I just have to make sure they get enough water all summer!
I have been doing some buying for the store the last few days but I managed yesterday to make two pillow covers for throw pillows in the living room, and a wee valance for the kitchen window. I'll show you those tomorrow!

I put hollyhocks in a few years back, and now I curse those blasted things each summer, all season long. They spread like wildfire, to every imaginable spot in the yard. I can't seem to get rid of them. It's been years since I've planted them, and yet they are everywhere!
You have been a busy girl...but what's new? :D
Your deck will be beautiful this summer, I'm sure. I love impatiens on my front porch (north side)...they are such forgiving little flowers. If I catch them drooping and give them a drink, look happy in no time.
Looking forward to seeing your pillows and valance tomorrow. I need to make valances for my kitchen windows (when we took the valances down to paint, they were nearly white in places!), but I have to decide what fabric to use, which probably means ordering.
Flowers on the deck are such a welcome addition. You have picked such pretty colors to display! Double impatiens are so beautiful and what a beautiful color!
Hope you week is going well!
I love the flowers! They are so pretty! There is nothing like "pretty-ing" up the house! :) Everything looks beautiful!
<--- Jealous! I have a black thumb! I've always wanted to have plants around me and I just end up killing everything. I think your porch looks like a lovely place to spend the day.
