Tabletop turned faux ruin in the garden. You don't have to use things as they were intended. The base serves as a pedestal for a piece of statuary or a plant stand. #modernmasters #metaleffects #faux #ruin #tabletop #clock #fern #imagine #downcycle #insideout #bronzefinish #meandmrsjones #salvage #gardendecor

Light from the potting shed and the kitchen window. Something very Ray Bradbury about this to me. #evening #twilight #home #pottingshed #kitchen #nightime #southernevening #september #raybradbury

This is the perfect weather for harvesting honey. Getting to that tomorrow. In between other projects I couldn't resist capturing a piece of honeycomb and some honey next to this gorgeous platter I'm babysitting until a friend can get it. #beekeeping #vignette #falldecor #honeycomb #septemberlove #thesecolors #autumndecor #honey #photoshootprops #honeyharvest #beekeeper #homesweethome #ellenviewcottage #turquoiseforever #browntransferware

Every year I think I'll dig up all these garlic chives from the garden borders but then this happens. What you can't see are the hundreds of pollinators on the flower heads. Honeybees, bumblebees, and a myriad of smaller bees species that I don't know the names of. Every summer these plants irritate me and every fall I'm enchanted all over again. You win, garlic chives. You win. #garden #herbs #pollinators #pollinatorgarden #honeybees #bumblebees #backyard #wildness #whiteflowers #garlicchives #honeyshed

My dream is an out door shower and a garden sink, until then I'll have to make do with a soap dish over the faucet, a clothespin, and a dish towel for quick garden clean up. #outdoorliving #garden #urbangardenersrepublic #cleanup #waterhose #diy #quickandeasy #keepitclean #nomudroomeither #makingdo #gardentips
