I may have to bead a Clematis

Isn't it beautiful? And my favorite color too. My husband says he's amazed at my ability to 'plant stuff' and make it grow. Frankly - I am TOO! But just when I think my garden is pretty great - I find one that I am in total awe of.....yesterday we attended a BBQ at the home of one of the Schoolhouse girls - we all had great food, great laughs and great fun. One of the greatest things about it, though - were her gardens. She had several, small beautifully accented garden areas around her yard - and along the fences of what it quickly becoming a petting zoo - goats, geese, chickens, ducks, rabbits, puppies.....but my attention was on the beauty. I wish I would have had a camera - it was like something right out of Birds and Blooms, or Better Homes and Gardens. It made me sit down this morning and look through some seed and gardening catalogs - dreaming and scheming on how to make my yard and garden the showplace that Deb's is....
And on a bead shop note - the girls couldn't wait to inform me yesterday that they had to "take apart" my new gallery wall earlier in the day - because they were selling things right off the displays! I won't make it in there again until tomorrow - so while I'm glad I've had another spectacular month of sales - I hope they didn't trash it too bad - there will still be customers passing by today....
