At Home On Redbird Lane: The yard at Redbird Lane...

The yard at Redbird Lane...

Our yard is finally starting to show some color..... The first picture is the front berm that's ready for mulch. In the second are the Rhododendron that are stunning
this year. The third picture shows Red Honeysuckle waiting on the Hummers! And, the final photo is light purple Iris. They bloomed a bit late but are beautiful!
This weekend I have some containers to plant and a couple of spray paint projects. weather permitting.

Projects on tap...

I have lots to do.... Work in the yard, spring/summer decor in the house and a couple of paint projects. I have an old (20 or 25 yrs) bread box from Walmart I am going to redo.... Haven't used it in years. I am going to use some ASCP on it. Watch for the before and after pictures! Also I will be posting pics of a pair of cool green vintage shutters. What a find hey were! What to do with the shutters?
1. Use on the mantle
2. Make shelves using the vintage brackets in my stash
3. Make a small screen

Happy New Year....and memories of the past

Happy New Year! We have had a wonderful Christmas and New Year on Redbird Lane. There are so many thoughts buzzing in my head right now....but one thing I ran across while shopping were bags of Brach's Chocolate Stars--so I bought two! My grandma always used them. I made peanut butter blossoms and I used Stars instead of kisses! I am going to attempt to lol this post (yikes hope it works!) This will be my 1st linky!
