I've never had much of a green thumb so I enjoy seeing other bloggers' beautiful gardens. Some of the creative gardeners have even inspired me to incorporate some of my teawares in my outdoor decor.
This old teapot and teacup were repurposed into a garden feature in my back yard.
Hanging teacups in my front garden.

| Birdhouses in my front garden |
Bernideen's love of birdhouses has rubbed off on me!
The "Bed and Breakfast", red and green birdhouses were recent yard sale finds.
I found the birdhouse with the lasercut design at the dollar store and painted it purple.
Does your garden feature whimsical ornaments?
Edited to add:
Let's celebrate the 150th Anniversary of Beatrix Potter's birth with a cup of chamomile tea!
I'm joining the following parties this week:
Great addition of whimsy to your gardens Margie. Yes, I have quite a few things throughout, tea and bird related including several birdcages.
ReplyDeleteLovely displays of tea items in your garden. U use lots of tea themed things in mine. Every garden deserves some whimsy.

I'm not much of a gardener either Margie, although I love flowers and garden-fresh veggies! I think your teacup garden is delightful! The laser-cut birdhouses are really pretty. Have good week, Deborah
ReplyDeleteLove teacups in the garden anything tea thats gotten broken got glued and sat out in the garden. I Love that purple bird house so sweet. With love Janice
ReplyDeleteThat is so very clever. I love to see a garden like that. Have a great week. Blessings Martha
ReplyDeleteMargie what a sweet idea! I love the birdhouses too. I've never seen any that pretty where I live. Love, Mimi xxx
ReplyDeleteLove the shepherd's hook with the bird on top! Where did you find it?
ReplyDeleteI bought it last year at Dollarama (a popular store in Ontario).
DeleteAwwww I love your tea inspired garden decor, Margie, and the birdhouses are so adorable. The purple one is so YOU! It's nice that we get inspired from each other. Yes, I love whimsy in my garden. I have a teapot wind chime that I'll have to show sometime, plus other things hanging in my trees. Thank you for sharing your garden with us.
ReplyDeleteHi Margie,
ReplyDeleteIt's good to be back to visit your posts. Yes, I also have whimsical decor in my garden. Lots of frogs and birds but no teacups or teapots. Yours look divine though. Happy Tea Day Sweet Margie and thank you for leaving such kind words. Blessings, Karen

I love the idea of hanging tea cups and pots in the garden. It looks adorable
ReplyDeleteI love how you changed the color of the house to purple. I also love the wee bed and breakfast birdhouse with a teeny teacup painted on the sign. So sweet.
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed day! ~Heather
Margie, I love your garden art! That laser cut bird house is adorable and just your colour! I painted birdhouses for years and had them all displayed above my kitchen cabinets. One side of cabinets I turned into a village lit up with fairy lights. I loved it for a while and then decided to change it all out with my teapot collection. Since we are downsizing I haven't got much out in the way of garden art any longer. But yours are really cute. Thanks for sharing yours and linking up. Enjoy your week.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

Your garden is absolutely delightful, my friend! I, too, don't have much of a green thumb...I have killed my share of rose bushes over the past few years {sad, I know}. I have always wanted to add tea cup to my yard, but am afraid they will break... You have inspired me, dear one :)
ReplyDeleteHugs and joy to you!
Oh I *really* love your birdhouse collections!
ReplyDeleteThere's something about birds.....ya know? ♥♥♥
What great items for the garden! Thanks for sharing and linking all your fun pieces.
ReplyDeleteVery cute garden accessories, so full of whimsy!...Christine
ReplyDeleteHow cute is your tea cups in the garden! I need to try that!
ReplyDeleteThe tea things in the garden give a lovely atmosphere of a party that never ends. And I like the idea of celebrating Beatrix with a cup of tea. Very proper.

Yes Margie:
ReplyDeleteLet's celebrate and thank for linking and participating!
Margie, why didn't *I* think of "editing to add" a picture of some of my Beatrix Potter stuff! Oh well ... love your garden and your "tea" additions to it!
ReplyDeleteHi Margie! Love your ideas of tea in the garden ;) You may not have a green thumb ... but maybe a "porcelain" thumb?
ReplyDeleteStay cool in the Valley this weekend!!
Wendy
Love those garden decorations. I am going to start doing something similar. Have a wonderful week. Blessings, Martha
