New Garden Color

I spent the afternoon recently repainting my ceramic pots, filling them with an assortment of annual color, and installing 5 knockout roses in a big planter just outside the back door of our living room.  I am not quite finished, but I'm happy with the changes so far.  Take a look:

pot was primed with ceramic paint

over-painted with a mottled amount of "claret wine" spraypaint

pots were filled with a variety of annuals, 

and 5 knockout roses were installed in the big planter.

I decided the planter needs lavender.....

Here is the house sign at the end of our drive,

changed to match the new roof!
