Cottage Style Party #49

Turning an ugly duckling into a swan...

Yep, its another rehab project!

These are the steps to nowhere on my back porch.

They go no where.

Here's another looksie....

Still ugly from the backside, no?

The starter moss is the most exciting part of them.

I've asked the landlord to get rid of them and 

he mentioned that they are covering the hole to the cistern below.

I took that as a "no".

Still ugly.

I tried pouring tons of deicer salt on them.

It ruins sidewalks and roads but

did nothing to the steps.

So I decided to use that design motto

"Turn an eyesore into a focal point".

A close up view...

Last years view...

Please ignore the rack,

it was the only photo I could find from last year.

The flowers will grow in together and 

create a floral waterfall!

Can't wait!

Have you changed an eye sore into something beautiful?

How is everyone this week?

Ready to party?

Let's get started then!

I just love these Ball blue jars in the splatter painted Ball box!

So pretty with the flowers tucked in.

Stop by Victoria Lavender blog to see more photos

and how-to's for her splatter painted carrier!.

This is just a small hint of a lovely beach table display!

How cute is that seahorse handle?




To see more of this seaside, beachy table setting drop into to The Charm of Home!

And, yes, there are seashells!












I love garden flowers!

These are just a few of the floral beauties in Kathy's gardens!

Can you believe that spider lily?

There's so much more!
