Trip to local Lowe's
Lowe's has great selection of perrennials and annuals around the 200 corridor in Ocala. I love visiting Lowe's and finding the next edition to my garden.
Shabby Chic recycled non working water fountain
This table top water fountain was generic nice gift I had gotten from a Neighbor in NYC about 10 years ago. The water fountain stopped working so since I do not have any garden statues or sculptures outside, I decided to recycle this item by jazzing it up a bit and making it into a funky piece of art for my outside garden bed.
I painted it, glued some broken jewelry parts to it and added polished glass stones on them. Now its a funky piece of art and not a contender for the land fills.
