New Shelf

I made James work really hard this week. Not only did he have to clean up the yard for our party, but he made me a new shelf for the bathroom. It's not quite done, but it's a start. The wall was just so barren that it needed something. I'll eventually need some other things to fill the shelf. I'm welcome to any ideas. I found the blue Ball jars for a steal at an antique shop that was going out of business. I got them all for about $3.00. I filled them with beach glass and tea lights. The one on the right has lavender that I bought from Debbie's booth. I put my Scentsy tealight in the middle. I'm going to have James also put little hooks on the flat parts so I can hang something on them. Any ideas for that are more than welcome also.




 My flower beds this year blooms some surprises. These daisy's weren't there last year and I didn't plant them. They magically appeared and started blooming. I think they're a great addition to this bed.
 I also got a great deal on some bulbs. Because it's close to the end of the season bulbs were marked down 75%. I wasn't prepared for them to do really well this year, but low and behold here's the first one. I can't remember the name but it's a kind of daffodil. I love that it's so different looking.
 My lilies did really well this year too. I think they overcame the shock of transplanting them last year.
Well, let me know if you have any ideas for my new shelf! I can't wait to hear them!

Hey Holly! I think that white flower is a Spider Lily? It's so pretty! And how fun that those daisies just magically appeared! That's the fun part of gardening, isn't it? :) Where did you work with Debbie? She's such a great friend (sister!). I love her dearly!

Hi Holly!!
Your flowers are AWESOME!!!!
The shelf James made is really neat. If you put little hooks on it, you could hang vintage towels, or even small dried bundles of flowers.
Hugs,
Debbie
