“The fence around a cemetery is foolish,
for those inside can't get out
and those outside don't want to get in.”
~ Arthur Brisbane
Today
was a pretty darn good day. Not only did I take some time to hang out with Connie but I also brought home an
amazing 1870s cast iron cemetery fence angel from Squashapenny Junction.
We
just love Suzanne’s elaborate tags!
Just a quick note to those who are concerned about theft: Squashapenny
Junction is very focused on buying from reputable antique dealers and
sellers of old family "junk". Many of the grave markers and cemetery
paraphernalia found there are from those who have modernized their loved ones
markers and/or in the case of cemetery fencing they had to have it removed
based on cemetery maintenance regulations.
Also,
when I arrived home, my patio umbrella had been delivered. I rarely take
pictures of this side of my backyard probably because I’m usually seated in one
of those chairs while snapping pictures. Note the insane pumpkin patch that is ready to eat a visitor or two!
Those are some pretty cool pieces. I love your patio set
ReplyDeleteThanks! I think these are the most comfortable patio chairs ever. Of course, I usually pull my legs up and hang about but they are comfy.
DeleteWow love the fence angel.
ReplyDeleteI think so too! Now coffee table piece or keep it as garden art????
DeleteIt was a great day with you yesterday shopping, sweating, eating, and gabbing. I enjoy your company ... you already know this.
ReplyDeleteAwww, I know but it's always nice to read.
DeleteRight back at ya! Thank you Hollywood Cemetery roses for introducing us :D
Wonderful fence piece! The garden looks comfy, I will sit in the chair further from the carnivorous plants!
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool! What a lovely Angel and their business sounds intriguing, just think of all the wonders they sell! ^_^ This post makes me want to (kind of) nest. You know, to decorate my own personal space more, to get lovely things and call something "home". :D
ReplyDeleteWow very beautiful umbrella. If you thinking that umbrella can only be used for the protection from rain and suns then you are wrong, it can also be used for decoration to your garden and home also in a unique way. Design your home and garden with simply shade umbrellas.
