My dad’s birthday is on the horizon and now is a great time to get a gift for dear ol’ dad. There are plenty of choices to select from; depending on their tastes, you can get them a variety of patriotic home decor gifts from an American flag to flasks, thanks to the internet.
Take note of what your father has been talking about and get him the gift that he deserves.
One of the advantages to having spring take an interminable time coming (there HAS to be an advantage or the anxious gardener would go nuts!) is that without all the greenery we can see exactly what needs painting and repair. The roses have been pruned back and it’s clear that the arbor needs a new coat of paint, and the little stone benches tucked around the property have begun to peel. And after five years the gargoyle lamppost is starting to chip. And I’ve GOT to do something about all the odds and ends of mismatched pots scattered around the house and yard.
Take a step and make note of what you need to improve and you can spend your fall enjoying the labors of your summer garden decor planning.
