Summer finds - planters

It was so hot all summer I didn't do much but read. I did manage a few flea markets and garage sales and will share them over the next days (or weeks)

Some of my summer finds:

Great Planters!

Glass Balls

I found these 3 glass balls at a garage Sale on our way home on the weekend. I don't know what they are but they were 50¢ each and so pretty and sparkly I scooped them up. They are about 4" in diameter and have a one hole. They remind me of float balls. I wonder if they came off a light fixture. Anyone know?

Garage Sale

On our way home from the Church BBQ on Sunday we saw a "Junk Sale" sign and had to investigate.Here is what we bought:

A small green 6 drawer unit, 2 plant holders a metal pointy thing and DH bought the plastic jug.

I had fun putting things on the tall green shelf unit.

Not sure what to do with this plant stand yet. Just hung it on the wall for now.

It was only $3.00 so I had to grab it.

I put the drawer unit on my island with the metal piece at one end.

Not sure what it is, the point comes off. Maybe the top decoration of a copula, a garden ornament? 

Anybody have any ideas?

Weekend Workers

My daughter picked up her children and all four of them came for the weekend to help us do some things around the house.

 TJ and Paul hung the light fixture in the kitchen

Meghan and her Mom Sharon weeded and planted the garden around the west bay which is very sunny and dry.

They planted portulaca which hopefully will spread and fill in with some nice colour.

Paul cleaning up and planting morning glories

Sharon's dog Radar was a big help too!

They also moved a lot of heavy furniture for us and helped us organize a bit for the Garage Sale we hope to have soon. Thanks everyone!

Hope you had a wonderful weekend too.
