Garden Art with Lights
With Christmas just a short 10 days away, many of us are still adding the final touches to our home. The way things are going this year; a wreath on the front door may be the extent of my holiday flair. Yes, I wish I had time to do more, but don’t despair, I have the privilege of living next store to an amazingly talented individual. She has taken Christmas decorations to a new level, with what I call a form of garden art. Every year her front yard is transformed into a beautiful winter wonderland. Her strands of hand-painted lights have been transformed into beautiful flowers, each with their own stamen. She does have the standard reindeer or two, the typical Christmas tree, but these pale in comparison to the rest of the show. I can’t wait for her to put on the final touches this weekend, strands of hand painted butterflies (made from the bottoms of plastic one gallon milk containers-these are incredible) woven in-between the strands of flowers. Her front yard is the most unique display of garden art transformed into holiday spirit, really quite a site to see! Of course, I asked if she could move on to my front yard to add to my lonely wreath…we’ll see what happens.
