Hey y'all!! Here's a few roses still blooming but got hit hard by the deer so probably won't get many more since they ate just about all my remaining buds. I could just scream. Well I did scream but only the poor hubby got the brunt of it. More fencing going up this winter so I'm a semi happy girl. Lol I was able to enjoy the whole summer so I am thankful for that. Ok here goes!!!
I think these are Perdita and some Cream Veranda buds with a few others.
All Abe with a Jubilee Celebration & Discovery tucked in the back.
Jubilee Celebration and Tamora I think.
Discovery and Gruss
Cafe Au Latte dahlia
Alnwick with a few others.
This one was from last week and I think it's Anne Boleyn, Alnwick and Quietness.
Olivia and Discovery I think. Lol
Hope y'all enjoy!! Judy

My Treasures From Last Weekend
Comments (23)I love the tool box, desk and enamel pan...but that's because I LOVE Prims :) I have an old toolbox with the name of one of the local hardware stores on it that has since closed up! I bought it for like $5 at an antique store and it sits on my kitchen counter and holds blue Mason jars that I use for canisters! The enamel pan would be a lot more than $5 around here. The yellow and green stuff is more expensive because it's harder to find! I LOVE collecting that stuff. I have a good collection of red and white pans and some other stuff. I also have an old desk but it's the old kind where the guy in front of you has the desk attached to his bench. I bought that this winter and it is my endtable in the corner. I just love old stuff! I can't imagine putting it in the dump! Freecycle it nice....if it works for you. I have yet to get anything but I did get rid of about 6 things last week :)...See MoreHow to preserve my treasures
Comments (4)Hi, I use Zinsser Bullseye stain killing primer (it's white, but pigment can be added) on everything before painting and have never been disappointed. You can use it over paint. You didn't say how the paint is on the chairs. I would probably knock off any dirt or loose paint with a wire brush, prime them with Zinsser and paint over them. For metal, I like industrial oil base paint (alkyd). It's available at the big hardware stores, but you may find it at yard sales, swap meets, Habitat Restores, or in the oops paint at the big stores. It's pretty pricey new. Someone you know may paint industrial stuff or farm equipment and give you some. It's very tough paint and doesn't fade for years. Linda...See MoreI'm finally cracking open my 'treasure chest'
Comments (12)I love what has been shown here as suggestions. I can't wait to see what you do. (And I'm following red neck chic now. Cool blog.) If you decoupage it may not last outside (even on a covered porch)UNLESS you use lazertran transfer paper to make decals and then apply them with oil based varnish. I've just learned more about this technique and will report more when I've experimented. Just wanted to mention it since decoupage was brought up as a possibility.
