Garden beginnings

I've been working so hard on making a garden at my house. Granted, I live in the desert so it's a challenge from the get-go. I took a quilt rack and turned it into a "trellis". Then I put a windchime on it that my stepson and grandson helped me make from silver spoons and a cut glass bowl. Added a little heart-shaped bird house, a leaded crystal pendant and a cracked CD to catch the sun. To give the illusion of an actual flower garden, I attached flower shaped plates to rebar painted green/glitter and planted them. Now, if only the real flowers would take off!

I lost my glasses. So frustrating!!!! So, anyway, I went to Walmart and bought some generic glasses that'll do until I decide to give in and buy some new bifocals.

so here's another switchplate. I still have a few plain switchplates to decorate.

I'm in a funky mood today. Sometimes it feels like I've lost the "nice" me. Today's one of those days.
