Have you ever finished a project
and then stumbled across something better!
I made my Spring wreaths
and shared them with you a few weeks ago.
Then, I spied these baskets at Nell Hill's
the weekend that we were there
and was dying to use them on my front door!
Can you believe that they were only $10.75 apiece?
They are a little over 17 inches tall
and about 11 inches wide.
I had some Forsythia (faux)
and I wedged some floral foam
in the basket to poke the branches into.
I just layered all of my flowers
from the wreath into the basket.
I arranged some of them
so that they were spilling over the edge.
When I finished I thought it needed something
so I made a little Welcome sign for it.
These wooden discs are really thin
so you can punch a hole with a hole puncher.
I painted them black
and wrote on them with a liquid chalk marker.
I just tied them on with some string.
It was cloudy all weekend
so I thought that the pictures wouldn't turn out
but they are OK.
They are so Springy!
You can tell that Spring is here because
my allergies are acting up!
But I love being outside!
We cleaned out the WHOLE garage
this weekend and I sold a lot of stuff on Craigslist!
I had a lot of furniture
that I needed to get rid of.
It feels so good to purge
and make money at the same time!
I can't quite start planting yet.
But at least there is some Spring color
on the front door!
Until Next Time,

Love your baskets and I have an old one kind of like yours. I need to get it out and fill it. I need to purge so badly. I would do Craig's List, but we can't have anyone come to our house and some things are just too big to meet someone in another location with. May have to just take stuff to a consignment shop.
I love it, and I think I just might copy you. I'm bored with plain old wreaths. It looks beautiful!
I LOVE those flat baskets! Your arrangements look so pretty Cindy!
Cindy- That looks wonderful! I always thought it was beautiful but this is just gorgeous. xo Diana
Love your idea Cindy! Looks great and so inviting!

Your baskets are definitely worth a "do-over." They are lovely. Theresa
I love your baskets. It's nice to just do something different and break out of the routine. Not to mention that you got a great deal on them and who doesn't love a bargain!
The baskets are lovely. I might just have to make a run to Nell Hill's myself!
The baskets are gorgeous on those magnificent doors!
Looks absolutely gorgeous!

Gorgeous doors, photos, and baskets. Your addition of the "welcome" plaque was a stroke of genius. Have a wonderful weekend.
