Adding Color, Part 2

Today's project after work was to obtain and arrange artificial flowers for the patio and bathroom. I happened to decide to do this when the craft store was having a 50-60% off sale on artificial flowers. I could not have chosen better timing!

I found some arranged pansies on sale for under $4 each and thought they'd go well on the ledge (for those unfamiliar with the apartment, the ledge of the patio is just a couple of inches above the driveway). I got two each of purple and yellow/purple flowers.


I had two pots with dirt in them just sitting on the patio growing nothing but cobwebs, so I found some flowers to put in each of them. Lucy helped me, as you can see.



I arranged the chairs I had with the tables I purchased yesterday and together with the flowers I think the patio now looks much, much better than it did before!


The flowers in the bathroom are in a pot that came in a lotion/body wash/body spray set. I had been using that pot in the bathroom to hold the toothpaste, but I think it looks better as a flower pot/vase.
