That's a very old picture of a vignette I did in my old backyard up in the woods...how charming is that, to have an old farm table and mix matched chairs for dining alfresco on a balmy summer evening?
Feeling inspired? Well, wait until tomorrow, because....
It's almost here. The 2008 Summer Garden Tour, that is.
If you're participating, get your post about your outdoor living spaces ready. Tomorrow morning I'll share my outdoor spaces and link to all of you that sent me links (and I'll include the picture you sent me as well) and then we can all go, yard to yard, enjoying the view, and get inspired to add more charming touches to our outdoor spaces.
Oh, I can hardly wait!



What a great picture. That would be a fun screen saver. It reminds me of the party seen in Chocolat.

My grandmother lived in Fitzgerald, Georgia, in a lovely old home with the porch and all.
This reminds me of the chairs she had in the back yard and, of course, on the porch.

Love the picture! Makes me want to go paint a chair red. Thanks for sharing.
Looking forward to the Summer Garden Tour!

Love the red. The setting is so beautiful. I now want to go find a table and several chairs for my outdoor garden.
Very lovely.

Thanks so much,

Someone just told me about your garden tour. I hope I'm not to late...I'll email you a link and photo, just in case.

I would love to be a part of your Christmas and garden tours both next year!
