...gather ye lavender buds while ye may!

...ah the heavenly scent

of

~ lavender ~

clean...

...fresh

and simply LOVELY...

hello dear girlie's!!

i hope you're enjoying summer :)

this week,

i've been working on my outdoor

swirly iron garden chairs.

nothing difficult,

i just made new "slings" for them,

out of the softened/non-chlorine bleached drop cloths

and a few new headrest pillows.

i have two of these chairs

and they are perfect for unwinding after a long, hot day:)

like a hammock

but

better!!

(i can never seem to get comfy in a hammock!)

((i just feel "swallowed"!))

so these suite me just fine

did you happen to notice something hanging off of the chair??

and did you also

 recognize the faux "grain sack" fabric??!

i had just enough left over

from my rose-Mary rocking chair make over

to make a

~ flower gatherer ~

and just WHAT is a

~ flower gatherer ~

you may be asking yourself??

why,

it is a lovely carrier

for all your le fleurs of course!

simply grab the smooth stick handles

and away you go to your beloved garden.

snipping and cutting away to your hearts content

thinking about how beautiful

all your flowers will look inside

...or out :)

or maybe,

you like the way they look hanging off of your chair

like i do!

either way,

oh-so-loveliness!

i adore the rustic grommets,

and the hemp tied handles...

and of course

it wouldn't be complete without the ~

RUFFLES!!!

and

a pretty tag...

the little see through vellum strip

 whispers

"find beauty in all things"

after you have your cuttings for the day

you simply gather up the handles...

and you are on your way :)
