Creative Garden Ideas PARTY!!!!

I'm really excited to see all the creative gardening ideas. Mine involves decorating with plates and shells. Both are super cheap to find at yard sales, flea markets, and of course, Goodwill.
I go straight to the 'dishes' isle when I 'm at Goodwill as I have found all sorts of cute plates. The plates have to have a floral design to go in the garden. I've also decorated potted plants with broken plate pieces. As for seashells, they are a super way to fill space in a garden. This year I filled my birdbath with shells as I never seem to be able to keep the water clean for the birds.

Now I'm outta here to check everyone else's party post.

HAPPY GARDENING!!!!

  6. Everything looks lovely in your garden Mandy. I have a stack of old plates awaiting placement around the garden too - have writing on them so thought they would look cool and different.

    Your birdbath idea is good - love shells and have a large shell shaped bowl of them on my patio table this Summer.

    Have a fun weekend.
