    Thumbs up Freeshare Find

    Well I actually had listed a wanted on the local freeshare boards. I asked for planters/pots or any other gardening stuff. I received an email Wednesday and a man brought me 3 med and 1 small terra cota pots and 3 med plastic pots plants came in. Today I got an email from a lady who lives just around the block who said she had some for me. I took DS1 and DS3 with me and I hit the motherload!!!!! I got all of this:





    And she has more for me but no more would fit in my car. She said to come back I will be sharing with my sister and brother who both also just bought houses

    Oh my goodness! The motherload is right! I really love all that iron stuff you got there. If I remember right, wasn't the outside of your gouse done in a "spanish" style? Those trellis pieces and the the matching rails are going to go perfect! Are you going to paint them or anything? I love that green "verdigree" look, but the 1st thing that popped in my head was black, ya think? And in the last pic, I love the 2 terra cotta pieces. Again, perfect for your house exterior!

    You got some generous neighbors there mom23! And excellent that she has more and that you can share! Makes it all the nicer, right?

    I know you were "happy dancing"!...lol!

    Enjoy your soon to be beautiful garden!

    ~It's very much like Freecycle; FreeSharing. I'm glad you asked because I hadn't looked up my state since last year and there is now a group nearer to me that I may be able to join!~
