Jeanie: Garage Sales Filling Garden

JeanieSpokane: Enjoying *another* downright summer day - forget spring! We’ve been going to garage sales and estate sales all week. I’ve picked up little things for my small garden. They aren’t gnomes but I’m getting pretty darn close - I’m making a “Fairy” garden - so everything is miniature. Just right for someone with my distinct lack of gardening skills - I need to have Sunny (Bent’s Beer Garden) come over and guide me. But so far, I have a little frog sitting in my chickens & hens, two miniature carts, two small (4 inches maybe) chairs that can all hold potted plants. I am ready! Bring on the heat!

Question: What do you hunt for at garage sales?
