Pinday: The Rock Garden

Yesterday was absolutely gorgeous here in southern Virginia. I was lucky enough to spend most of the day outside with my puppies and get a few things done for spring. I picked up sticks out of the yard that had fallen last week in the snow/ice situation, I spread out the bails of hay (for grass in those bare spots) that we used last fall for decoration, and I painted a really reeeally old bench for the rock garden that me and my mom are vamping up this spring. After painting the bench, I was inspired to write a "Pinday" post about my rock garden inspiration.

#1
This bench inspired this whole project I believe. It is so happy, clean, bright, and summery. It is the exact color I spray painted my bench yesterday (I had some leftover spray paint from when I painted an ugly clearance lamp a few months ago). So this pin was inspiration for a project that took me exactly 10 minutes and a sunny day to complete!
I promise I will post pictures of our garden when it is finished.

This adorable fairy door has my heart. *sigh*
It was originally from Etsy, but is no longer for sale.
Yep, I'm totally DIYing this.

We are planning to hang a chandelier also. Eeeekk!
It's going to be painted red. Oh yes.
It definitely doesn't look like this, but you get the point. We were actually given a chandelier not too long ago, so I'm just waiting to get a can of paint to get to it!
