little projects

I finally got the spray paint to spruce up my fountain...
don't know if the pictures do it justice, but I think it looks better.
 This is the 'before' look....
This is the 'after' look....

I also bought this 'kit' to hang clay pots together at the flea market a couple of weeks ago. Well, I thought it would be nice if I painted the pots....
And this is how they look with plants and hanging up....
the contraption is just pieces of wood with 'hooks' cut on them and the pots clip on to....
I like it!

And last but not least, my pretty old window
Fred bought me this old window in Dade City last Summer and I hadn't done anything with it yet...
Well, Fred took and sanded it down for me and I cleaned up the glass on it.
The next step is to paint it. I am thinking about red and putting a 'crackle' finish on it to keep it looking 'old'.
Also, I think I am going to take the hummingbirds pictures that Freddy took and make them 5x7 and put them in the windows.  VERY excited about this, I just hope it doesn't take me till NEXT Summer to do it!!
