this is a corner in my screened porch here I hung this chair shelf. the plant—a white licorice plant sits in a painted peat pot. it’s a favorite filler for my window boxes and planters.
I added the stamped clay tag to the front of the seat. here’s a tutorial to make you own clay tags.
you can see the frosty white coloring of the plant, in the pic below. it was the first year I had used it and I didn’t know a little goes a long way with this fast grower. it nearly choked out my geraniums!
thanks for looking!
and I’ve had some emails about some of my blog elements, so here are the links:
***if you are interested in adding a email button to your sidebar,-- here’s the tutorial I used to do it and here is where I got my scrabble alphabet that I used for my button.
***here’s a tutorial to add your recent posts/thumbnails across the top of your blog.
***the triple frame on my header is free, just for “liking” florabella’s facebook page here.
***I just upgraded to adobe photoshop elements 10 and I’m going through all the new features. I really like it—they added a lot of new options for your picture editing.
have a great weekend and thanks for looking!

I may have seen this plant before, but I never knew what it was called. It looks cute in its infant stage, but will be a showstopper on that chair when it grows up!
ReplyDeleteI may have to come back again to check out that email feature. I love your flowered scrabble letters. Very "you".
So pretty! I know what you mean about that licorice plant! They are are so sweet and fuzzy and innocent looking when you buy them.....but give them a few weeks and they become huge! lol!
