White Wednesday Gardin


Welcome to my blog, junkdreams. I am so excited to be participating in White Wednesday, a day devoted to all things white, inspired by Kathleen at http://www.fadedcharmcottage.blogspot.com/. Visit Kathleen's blog to see the list of all blog participates in this. White is my very favorite colour!!!, and I will have lots of whites to show you each Wednesday. Enjoy...and thanks for visiting.

For my first White Wednesday post I decided to share some images of whites in my garden. I love all things white, and my garden has many white flowers and white accessories....so many, in fact, that next Wednesday will feature MORE garden pictures!!!


I'm always on the lookout for old staircase spindles and use them in a variety of ways....this one holds a candle to light the garden.

Isn't the contrast of the chippy white paint against these pink flowers gorgeous!

A white chandelier hanging from a tree over a picnic table (a WHITE picnic table, of course) in the backyard.

This is a silverplated jug found at the thrift store that I embellished and planted up with white bacopa.

The blue seat of a garage sale find old tricycle contrasts this white flower so beautifully.

That's all for today..hope you have enjoyed these images of whites in my garden. Oh.....and I know it isn't really Wednesday today, but we are on our way up to the lake for the week and there is no internet service thus am posting early! Have a great week and thanks again for visiting. I would love to hear your comments.
