It's been a while since I've had a chance to play around with decorating. We've been enjoying company, food and drinks for the past few weeks!
First, my daughter Kristi and her three children came down to visit us. It was their first time seeing where we live since we moved down here two years ago. We had an absolute blast at the beach and pool every day!
Then we had these two guys (my daughter's best friends) stay with us for a week. They cooked us some awesome dinners and even cleaned before they left...how awesome was that?
So, now, I can share my latest window re-do with you. It's my kitchen window herb garden...with my distressed sign and some flowers, too!
It all started with the chicken wire panels that I found at Hobby Lobby a few months ago.
Clothespins with identifying names clip each bunch of herbs to hang for display and dry. Faux sage is hanging there for now...my plantings aren't quite ready to harvest.
It makes quite an attractive display and drying rack.
My "herbs" sign started with a little scrap of wood that I gave a dry brush coat of white paint. Then I created the image and transferred it to the wood.
The easy, wax paper, transfer technique can be seen here!
My rustic, wooden sign has the perfect vintage look.
Honestly, I have so-o-o much fun decorating this window year 'round. I love looking back at all the posts of all the looks it has had over the past two years.

Now, here are lots of pics of all the little details!
Organic jasmine tea fills my vintage ironstone compote.
It's so convenient to have fresh herbs right in the kitchen and ready to snip.
Rag strips ready for tying bundles, card stock butterflies and a hanging votive, create a little somethin' cute, on a rusty, wire hanger.
Lavender and white roses fill a painted, vintage, florist container.
Burlap and jute accents are part of the window's dressing.
My, special, little magnet found a place to be displayed.
The window gets just the right amount of light for my indoor garden.
A rusty, vintage, hanging scale holds a little floral vignette.
In spring the window looked like this. Naturally, I loved that, too!

Now, can you see just why I just LOVE our window?
I'm already dreaming about the look that I want to do for fall. Just dreaming! I'm in no hurry.....summer is my favorite time of year!
I think for my next post I'll share a bunch of wire baskets!
Love, Hugs and Kisses,
JP
