Pretty yellow tulips....
in a throw-away dresser drawer...
Monica found two of these drawers in the trash at Canton First Monday. We thought they would make cute containers for flowers.
Milton painted them with black chalk board paint. And Mika wrote~

Very cute. I've seen a lot of loose drawers at antique shops, too. I'm always trying to think of what I'd do with them. The flowers are so nice! I'm from Texas, but here in Illinois where I live now the only flowers I've seen were at Kroger! Soon, tho. Very soon!

You two have the best imaginations! Now I can't wait to find my dresser drawer! What a nice project for spring. It's so pretty on your table with the vintage tablecloth in all its bright colors! Have a sunshine-y week!

Very cute! I like the idea of painting with chalkboard paint. I have to steal this idea from you!
Have a great week.

Hey what a great idea. What about drainage. If you overwater? Linda

The tulips are beautiful and I love your setting, the table and the sofa and covered chairs are gorgeous..

Hi Tina,
So pretty. So creative you are!! I love tulips. Yours look so like Spring! We are anticipating approximately 8 to 10 inches of snow tomorrow! Ugh! Thanks for sharing your lovely tulips, I will dream of Spring! Hugs, Rosemary~

A great container for the beautiful flowers. Really makes me feel like spring is near unless I look outside my window. We got about 3 inches of snow today and just finished shoveling our driveway and sidewalks. It sure is beautiful but too much work. Have a wonderful Sunday evening.

Thank you for sharing your darling idea. I imagine that you can paint all kinds of things with the black chalk paint. I love visiting your blog to see what you and your daughter are up to - always something cute and original.
Have a great week.
