38th Annual NOGS Tour 2013 Garden # 4

How about a pretty downtown Savannah

 courtyard on this fine Sunday morning which happens

 to be the first day of September.

The front of the home looked a lot like a traditional Savannah home

beautiful woodwork, lighting, lots of windows
 and haint blue ceiling

all along the side of the house was this stucco and wrought iron work
which led to the entrance gate for the courtyard

once inside it looked more like what I think of as a French villa

this fountain has a mirror behind it which expanded
 the courtyard and brought in lots of light

raised beds filled with herbs and flowers

loved the path which went along the inside
of the stucco wall to the front yard

Confederate jasmine was planted along most of the walls

there was a beautiful alcove

with this pretty dining area which looks out into another

fountain area and into the home

this is the opposite side of the alcove

beautiful comfy setting area, pretty pots with lush greenery

my favorite pots ever.. I am so in love with these big white pots

This courtyard was very tranquil, peaceful and natural looking
even full of people it felt as if I was alone.
The absent of lots color made it a calming space.

and that little pop of color added the " happy "to the space
Hope ya'll enjoyed ..
Have a wonderful weekend everyone..  hugs, Cherry

hoping there is sunshine on your beautiful faces this morning

I saw these words on Pinterest this morning and just

 knew I needed to add my sunflower to it..

After all this rain we have had I am soaking up 

every ray of sunshine I can get..

I know I have been absent a lot for the past few months, 

fingers crossed all that is about to change.

so hang in here with me if you can.

big hugs, Cherry

Wishing each of you a peachy kinda day

Hugs and happy day to each of you, Cherry
