Author Message   Jak3  My Weather Posted on Monday, June 04, 2007 - 09:27 pm EST :    Over the years, I have received several things as gifts from family and friends to add to my gardens. In my old yard, the gardens were larger and further apart. Here, I seem to have something every where you look! But most of them mean something special to me.... My daughter cast this plaque for me while working in a cement factory. My husband gave me this patio stone to put in the floor of my greenhouse after he built it. When we sold our house, I specifically excluded this, and now it is part of my front garden path. And these "faces" were made by the same artist who made my "cement kids" (Social Forum) and given to us when we left Merrickville. The picture frame was bought at a bargain shop. This is on the wall at the outside front entrance to our house.

The saying in the first placque is quite unique and ultimately, very special, seeing as how your daughter made it. All 3, very special!

I have one similar to photo #1. Sunnyday2day - Tanya-Michigan, Zone "5"   Growit  My Favorite Photo My Weather Posted on Tuesday, June 05, 2007 - 03:49 pm EST :    Wonderful Julie. I have a sensory garden to design and plant up over the next two years and love the idea of paving stones with poems on. Now I just have to work out how to do it or find someone who knows how to.
