Wanna see what putt~er~ing looks like in my neck of the woods?

Any self respecting day of puttering must include festooning your pots with burlap...

Don't you agree?

And securing it with clothespins that you paint with polka dots...

I'm just saying...

I am notorious for leaving the hose here and there and everywhere...

I'm a busy, busy puttering fool...I don't have time for such details...

Have you heard...burlap is the new must~have...all the best dressed pots are

wearing burlap this Fall...

Moving right along...

I found time to paint some up~side~down tomato cage toppers...

My daughter and I agreed that it looks a tad Halloween~ish...

But what the who~ha...if trick~or~treaters come to our door today...it will be

some "trick" finding candy in our cupboards....

I guess I could offer some hot dogs...or maybe a paint brush stealing dog...

Once again...I'm just saying.

And no afternoon of puttering would be complete without painting our

street address on a drop~cloth pillow case....

PUTT~ER~ING GONE WILD!

Chicken feet!

Still!

I hope that you are enjoying many puttering filled Summer

afternoons.
