Use What You Have...


An old urn,
and an old candle holder...



Cushions from an old wicker set no longer being used...
A table without a top.....a mirror placed on top, 
and covered with a thrift store cotton cloth...


A mesh canopy that was once used over a twin bed,
now covers a chaise lounge chair.


Rusty old urns filled with ground cover roses...


A lopsided silver plated, flea market candle holder on the table,
and another thrifted cloth.
An afternoon spent going through the storage shed,
rather than shopping.
Now for some thrifted wooden shutters on each side of the windows,
washed in a sea green...
And a good cleaning with the pressure washer to the deck floors and walls,
along with some yearly treatment/stain,
and the back deck will be ready for summer.
Cost?  Zero.

Start where you are.
Use what you have.
Do what you can.

Blessings,
Yaya
