"So, what's out there?" Panda's question put an end to my reverie. I had been so absorbed in looking at the back yard that I'd forgotten all about him. "Well," I responded. "It's looking pretty good out there. I think it might almost be spring." "Oh, does this mean the groundhog did or didn't see …
Since it was so pretty outside today... I decided to go walk around in my "whimsical" back yard. This time I thought it would be fun not only to share the garden's progress with you, but also to try and get photos from perspectives I may not have considered before.So I got some close-ups. You …
Or maybe I mean "A Sticker-y Situation"... Because while cactus thorns can stick you I guess they aren't technically stick-y. But anyway. We can do an English lesson on that another day. Right now I'm just worried about whether to say "cactus" or "cacti" or even "cactuses" while writing this post.In "Here is Yard Art", …
...while it lasted! So I got this idea back in January. I had seen pictures of tall mosaics that looked like a series of houses one on top of the other, and they looked really cool to me. Immediately I thought "I can do that!" And, since there were several long two-by-fours in my back …
So on Pinterest you can find all these ideas... And if you're in "Whimsical Mode" and into mosaics, you will probably want to try some of those ideas yourself. Especially if you're trying to make your backyard drought-resistant and just a tiny bit bohemian (read: "eccentric" if you must).This is from September of last year, but …
Remember this? Yes, it's the famous toilet from "The Art of Being Big Girl Continued"! If you remember, it took me about three days to change out the toilet in the guest bathroom. My first thought was to put the old one out on the curb for the yearly neighborhood trash pick up. But we …
Okay, you really don't want to know about my "former" sago palm... Suffice it to say that I had to trim back all its leaves... However, I managed to plant it in the flower bed, so we'll see how it does there. It also had two "babies" that I will be attempting to plant as …
You remember my garden spheres, right? (If you're just joining us, you can go back and read "Just Add Water" to see these spheres in their humble beginnings.) They sat around for weeks while I tried to decide what to do with them, and finally the idea hit me! Wouldn't it be fun to make a …
What could be more whimsical than mushrooms? I mean, even in real life they are whimsical, as you can see in this picture I found on http://www.pixabay.com.But they are even more whimsical if you draw them, because then you can have whimsical insects too. And if you are like Panda, you just might get stuck …
If you have read my post "Just Add Water", you have already seen my whimsical cement garden spheres. And if you have been in my backyard lately, you know that they still look exactly like this. Yep, that's right, I have done nothing to them to make them any more whimsical. That's because I was …
