Garden greens planted

After attending the Flower & Garden show I was inspired to get planting my new bed. 



I started by planting a few seeds but that wasn't enough of a fix so I was off to the nursery.
  


I found several different lettuces, swiss chard, and onions.  Stuck them in the ground and here it is.  





Now lets hope it doesn't freeze or snow.  


Here's a couple more hints that spring's on it's way...

Sew.... what do you think?

     I love this antique stool my mom gave me, mostly because it's from her though.  She gave me it along with a roll top desk when I got engaged.  I treasure both.  That being said, it was time to ditch the butterfly embroidery on the seat (for now anyway).  
Sorry mom.

Before

It took me most of the day but I managed to knock out a little slip cover for the stool.  It's really a beginner job but it freshens it up:)

After
Thanks for taking a look!
