“(a green thumb) A natural skill for gardening; A person with this skill
en.wiktionary.org/wiki/green_thumb“
or um… trying to have one.
I’ve never been a gardener, been into gardening, the dirt, the bugs, the weeds, nor have do I really even like getting my hands dirty.
But, I love beautiful yards, with bright gorgeous flower beds and lovely garden fixtures. Oh how I envy the neighbors fabulous yard and was even more envious when the “YARD OF THE MONTH” sign went up.
Envy = Green. right? Not so much.
SO! I decided to get over myself {which was the only thing in my way} and take on this {what feels like} huge task of creating a beautiful yard.
Now its not much, but boy did it feel like I did a lot… this is my process so far…
My before:
those weeds about beat me up!
and after:
I know it doesn’t look like much.. but its a big ol’ accomplishment for me!
I also love, love, love roses and got this climbing rose to plant on the side of the house:
Roses are my favorites. I’d love to have a whole yard of roses everywhere.
I also made a wreath for the front door…
what a domesticated diva I am.
My wreath needs a bow desperately, and that is yet another skill I lack. Maybe I should go to bow-making school? Hmm…
















Who’s saying what?
