Tip toe through my garden

My gardens are looking so pretty right now I just wanted to share it with all of you.This is actually and hanging pot filled with lots of colorful flowers…we bought it around Mother’s Day from Costco and when I took the picture it looked really good but recently we’ve had some hot days and it is suffering a little bit 🙁

I love poppies

And hydrangeas

This is the front yard …look at my man spraying for weeds…he is the gardener man

Remember when my hubby and daughter made these garden beds for me for Mothers Day you can see it here. This year we have green peas, green beans, thyme, green onions and lots of tomatoes.

We also planted this pear tree just last year and we have quite a crop growing…I’m super excited!

How is your garden growing this year?

  

Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!

  • Your flowers and garden looks absolutely stunning! I always struggle with keeping petunias looking full and lush. I've tried plants and seeds and they still end up the same way. They start out looking so beautiful but by the time August rolls in they begin to look scraggly and I'm heartbroken. I keep saying I'm not going to buy any more but I just love their colors and initial beauty and blooms.
