Ho...Eileen, I proclaim you queen of the containers! Honestly, every container you do, from spring to summer to fall to Christmas - EVERY ONE of them is creative, colorful and beautiful!!! There's not much to look at plantwise at my place now (other than the Christmas tree). You have inspired me. Eileen, thanks so much for sharing these. I love them!<br />Blessings and hugs, BethBethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09792341123595520130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2243579953985871041.post-69600694027904556022011-11-30T15:35:53.892-06:002011-11-30T15:35:53.892-06:00Thanks Zoey, I think I am done outside for a while...Thanks Zoey, I think I am done outside for a while.

The allium isn't real showy, probably looks better in white.<br /><br />EileenGatsbys Gardenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04228978705943696143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2243579953985871041.post-56055602405587381202011-11-29T15:40:13.933-06:002011-11-29T15:40:13.933-06:00Thanks Claudia,

I love that your spray painted the hydrangeas.I will have to remember that. I painted my Purple Sensation heads too but I did mine blue and white to use this winter after Christmas. I never thought of Christmas colors! Thanks for the tip. LOL! I planted more of them this Fall so I should have more to paint up next year.<br />The red paint you used on yours looks so festive. <br />Snow coming in tomorrow. Yuck Eileen!
