A Picture is Worth a 1000 Words

 This is my Secret Garden.

 Built and maintained by…me.  It all started when I could not grow grass under our two story deck.  Out of frustration I decided to make an outdoor living room.  Needless to say, I sit out here a lot and enjoy the bright colors. (Of course, this summer it was not utilized very much since it felt like an oven outside most of the time.)This weeks tip took about 30 minutes from start to finish, and the total cost was $0.00 since I already had the spray paint from my basket project.

Since a picture is said to be worth a 1,000 words, here are 10,000 words worth.  They document my project from start to finish.

This one needs a few extra words.  You know the curiosity kills the cat thing?  Well, Miss Gracie Grey had to go inside for this next step.  Pretty sure she would not like a different colored coat of hair.  =)

Sometimes we think that we have to go out and buy something new to change the look.  More than likely we have something old that we can redo for a new look.  My “new” blue container brightened up my Secret Garden and gave me more color to enjoy.Take some time to re-look at things.  Your pocket book will be relieved.
