White Ironstone

Hi Everyone
 Happy Wednesday
This tiny vintage White Ironstone creamer
 is the perfect vase
 to hold these even smaller Cecille Brunner rose buds
 Cecille Brunner rose buds have the most
glorious and pungent fragrance

It makes the whole house smell
like a rose garden with just these tiny buds
 We planted this rose bush last year
 and I  imagined how it might look growing along our white picket fence
 
It is growing so well and
 smells even better than I had  imagined
 How wonderful to  be able to bring
the outside inside
 Here is a picture of our wonderful pug Finley
peeking through the picket fence
yes that is his happy face
 Can't wait to have the trailing rose bush grow even further
 along the fence and surround the whole house
with all of its  beauty and fragrance

White Picket Fence

 Hi Everyone
Happy Wednesday
There are so many different
white picket fence
designs and details to choose from
it can be overwhelming to make a decision

When we decided to
fence our home it was fun
  looking through magazines for inspiration
  We found 
several designs that had a  simple clean
   cottage look


This was the inspiration picture we chose for our front yard fence
I found it in Country Living magazine
The pickets we bought at Home Depot
and instead of putting a whole through the point {too busy}we rounded the top
We also squared the posts


 Similar to this fence we liked
in Marthas Vineyard 

This white picket fence looks like a pretty picture frame for these flowers
this is our neighbors front entrance
{Love}
the square design
 similar to lattice work but  with a slightly larger square



It was the inspiration for our brick patio fence


As you can see we decided to do 2 different designs
We squared the main posts on this fence too so there
 was a common theme between the two fences
They work beautifully together
I always dreamed of living in a house with a white picket fence
 dreams do come true

White Wednesday
and the Open House Party at
No Minimalist Here
Thank You Sherry for highlighting our home
be sure and join in the fun
