What a lovely gift! And so pretty too.
Wonderful, you are lucky to have such a lovely friend.:)
So nice! A charming addition to the garden.
What a terrific gift from a talented friend. I love it. Your flowers look beautiful as well.
It was such a wonderful surprise!
The nasturtiums and calendula were spectacular this year…now, they’re looking seriously bedraggled and going to seed. But I look forward to more next summer!
I love those kind of surprises. Mine are long past bedraggled. I hope they self seed next spring. They are a treasure.
Beautiful!!
What a delightful thoughtful and beautiful gift!
Is it protected so the elements won’t wear it down? Just beautiful and so colorful…
It is. But I will bring it indoors during the winter for extra protection. She did such a lovely job of it!
Wonderful gift and gorgeous nasturtiums!
Thank you to everyone for your compliments – I will pass them along to Melanie! 🙂
Amazing gift of a friend.
