Golf decor is all up now

Now that i have my golf wreath up, i had to add a touch more to welcome that huge championship to town! Bring on the golfers, and all the madness! Sorry, Tiger, i no longer swoon over you-- you pig.

I went to this huge garage sale put on my the junior league- next year, i'll be there right when it opens! I got an entire bag of golf clubs for a BUCK! i was seriously sqealing! I also got this urn at a garage sale, along with the balls and some tees for a smokin deal. i had wanted to make it full of balls, and then had this left over plant from the address planters i made- and got those cool moss rocks, which i've been obsessing over for a year now and would never pay the ridiculous price for.. guess what? Holla Dolla !!! I found packs of them- uhm.. you better believe i think i maybe bought 10 bags of them.. yes.. i did. So.. those lil rocks made an appearance in the urn as well. ALSO super obsessed how it turned out.. ( SUZY- if you do this project, i expect another tag with my name on it ;)

And of course the mailbox cant be left out!!! Its the only on the block to be decorated so far.. Stacey will be soon behind - maybe next year since she's in the whole getting married whirlwind.



Leftover ribbon from my wreath and voila peeps..
( and if they were stolen, it wouldnt be the end of the world since i got a whole bag of them for a buck!).. but if i caught someone TRYING to steal them, i would beat em ha

Address Planters

Remember these cute flower planters i painted?! I swear this project has been stretched into MONTHS it seems like- today i couldnt stand it any longer and picked up some flowers. With it being so cold still, they dont have a large selection, but they needed SOMETHING to tie in with my golf themed front porch. - My dad always told me when gardening, different areas of your garden and yard are like seperate rooms. This has been made into a golf room for the moment-

The thing about a room, is the colors should Flow.. too many colors= chaos!! I wanted white, green and yellow for flowers, but the white would have faded into the bench- so i have a pop of purple in there instead. - i love how it all turned out.

A little trick so you dont use soooo much planting soil and to help drainage when you water, is to put packing peanuts at the bottom of your flower pot- I ended up using WAY more soil, but to my dad that's music to his ears because he can use the soil for the urns on either side of my front door in a few weeks ;)

I'm not completely done with my golf decorating- the mailbox and a few other things need to be tweaked - out here in the south the mailbox gets done too... in Oregon, you'd be afraid it would all get stolen, right? Lol.. dont hate, its so true!
