Winter Colors in the Garden

Don’t Be Afraid! Keep Bright Colors in your Garden during the winter months and Enjoy!
We have been appreciative of the beautiful flowers, trees and foliage in our gardens since spring. Unfortunately, unless you live in the south or in places where you have mild winters, soon all that beauty will turn into fall colors and then, gone until next year. Nevertheless, there is hope. If you replace some of that beauty with your own artistic skills, you can still enjoy looking out of the window in a cold day and see color everywhere you look.

Therefore, it is not too late to start creating a garden room before the first snow knocks on our doors. I am sharing with you what I created this year in order to have something to look at during this coming winter. You already know that all these chairs were repurposed from either Habitat for Humanity or reclaimed from a neighbor who did not want them. I cleaned and painted them in colors and created some sort of rooms by adding decorative pieces in the fence.

Again, it is not too late. Just start with a chair or two, paint them, hang a decorative piece on the fence or decorate the area where your dog house is located. Finally, take a deep breath, find a cup of tea and enjoy color in your dormant garden, until all that beauty comes back next year.
