Flowers

I think (hope) we're out of the danger of frost.  Yesterday, I went to town to pick up my flowers for the season.  The costs are going up, and I am cutting back a little bit.  Next year, we will do more landscaping and I will incorporate more perennials. 
I was at the dollar store and found these cute little pots.

I bought three. 

 Add a whimsical bunny:


 I incorporated another rabbit, a chicken and a watering can:


I put it all together on short step ladder I picked up at a rummage sale years ago. 

 And walla........




And that's the way it is..............

    What a cute arrangement you have there. I love your new bunny. At the feed store in town they have a life sized metal goat - I want.

    We're supposed to be beyond frost now too, but it's going down to around 40 tonight ... brrr ! I hear you about the cost of flowers - I ripped out a perennial bed that had grown wild last year and put in annuals this week - $$$. Think I'll scrounge around for some replacement perennials next year. Hope you remain frost-free ... for at least a few months ;>)
