It might look a bit better with a pop of color over it. As for the rest, I'll be returning to the woods for them before too long. There's still so much to take care of in the house first.

As for it being our 'dream home' - ehhhh, dream property for sure. We're still working to make the house a little more dreamy. It's got a LONG way to go. But, since we loved the property and pool and the house wasn't a dump, we knew we could work with it.

Yes, the jasmine is lovely but the battle we've been fighting with another breed of jasmine has been rough. It's taking down trees and fences. The Carolina seems to be staying put in one general area.

Anytime there is a break in the cold weather more of them pop out. It happens all over this area. They have no patience to wait for spring. Honestly, I'm anxious for it to warm up too! Thanks for popping by!CraftyHopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10341033878002504601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4041495809860773419.post-18790225506605821622016-02-13T04:02:11.767-06:002016-02-13T04:02:11.767-06:00Oh fun.

I also love the yellow jasmine. I hope you keep a little of it. I have some jasmine that I bought to climb on my light pole out front. I had no idea that it would get so out of hand so quickly. I may have to move it to another spot.

And it did my heart good to see the azalea bloom, especially since I love the hot pink variety. We had those planted on both sides of our Alabama house - when I went back to town and discovered that the new owners had torn them out, I was sorely tempted to ring the doorbell and punch someone...Bobbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18222000454834798087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4041495809860773419.post-8161245880162260412016-02-12T16:44:07.861-06:002016-02-12T16:44:07.861-06:00You sure have a lot of cool finds on that property...You sure have a lot of cool finds on that property.

And that scroll lid should be hung up just as it is!!! Gorgeous! Leaving them to discover them again made me smile. What a treasure chest you live on! I cannot wait to see more finds!
