Pretend with me

I love my yard. Its just the right size for me. As we are going into gardening season and planting vegetables and, hopefully, a new tree, I am always grateful its not more space! I've been here for 5 years now (I know- weird) and each summer I've tried to plant some flowers. Some years have been more successful than others and this year I was dreading dropping $50 on flowers that were going to die mid-July. So I did the old lady thing! :/ I "planted" flowers today...
Here's my two hanging planters.......
Here's my load of "plants" from Tai Pain- I mean Tai Pan.
And finally- here's my two finished hanging flower baskets!
I'm fairly pleased with them! Obviously you shouldn't look too close but most people won't since its just me and when my friends come over, it gets dark outside haha I'm sure they're going to fade and I'll have to replace them next spring, but I'm hoping they'll last for the season.
