Some New Junk For the Garden

The thrift store gods were good to me this week when I found this awesome cast iron fireplace surround waiting for me at the DAV Thrift in Hampton.

I've got grand plans for this baby and it involves a "grotto".  Hmmmm......

This week began the Garden Rewards at my favorite local garden center, Countryside Gardens.  I've been saving up my coupons that were handed out with previous purchases (love that) and I bee lined right over there the first day to spend them.  But I didn't come home with any plants, instead I found this fabulous  old fencing.

I don't know how I had missed this before, but it was kinda tucked into a corner and when I found it, yippee :->

I love the heart shapes of the scrolls.  Perfect for the mandevilla vine to trail over.

Both are great garden art finds! I am looking forward to seeing the "grotto".

Wow, what a find in the fireplace surround. Don't you just love thrift stores. I can't get enough of them. Can't wait to see what you get next. Thanks for sharing.
