Trendspotting: Thrift-shop containers

IMG_3874By Teresa Woodard

Lou Killilea, owner of DeMoyne’s Greenhouse in Columbus, Ohio, recently shared her clever succulent containers for a story, “Thrift Shop Chic”, in Ohio Gardener, Missouri Gardener, Indiana Gardener, Wisconsin Gardener and Pennsylvania Gardener.  She and her daughter Kathy shop thrift stores for second-hand treasures to upcycle as garden containers.  Check out the July/August issue to see their stylish succulents in boots, crocs, lipstick cases, handbags and more.  Also, see Debra Knapke’s post about favorite succulents.

    I enjoyed seeing your garden and hearing about Brittany’s graduation.  I have heard so much about the children from Jane (and Daryl) that it is fun to put it all together with a setting!!  You have done a wonderful job on your gardens and I love the Trendspotting.  We have had so much rain that my vegetable garden looks sick and so many of my flowers get beaten down by the rain while in bloom-a little discouraging.

    Have fun on your upcoming cruise.
