On the Home Front

We got this great water jug with spigot from Pottery Barn which is now sitting on our counter providing us with a supply of what I like to call "spa water" flavored with mint from the garden and a splash of lemon.  Maybe we will try cucumbers next!  I love that it has that vintage mason jar feel.

 I also found some time this weekend to create a welcoming little planter vignette on our front stoop.  The yellow planter was meant to go in the bird cage, but alas, it didn't quite fit.  Well, it could have fit but getting it back out would have been an issue.  Nevertheless, I think it will look nice.  My hopes are that the candytuft and petunias start trailing a little.
