*Stone Butterfly*

This lovely is another one of my buys from The Harrogate Flower Show last month!
Of course I fell in love with it instantly as you know I love love love anything butterfly.
Isn't it adorable & so perfect for out in the garden, plus it was a super bargain too at only £3.


I have hung it here on our vintage wooden step ladders which were a gift from some friends of ours as James is helping them re-vamp their landscape business website, we also got a fab old sleeper bench too from them! *yay*
Aren't these old ladders wonderful though, I love them!
♥
They are opening a new garden boutique where they will be selling vintage wooden ladders like these & some lovely old trugs too amongst other things so I will certainly be letting you know when they are fully open so that you can pop along!

  9. Hi Alison.

    Your stone butterfly and vintage are ladder are just lovely.

    As a former 3rd grade teacher (Kansas) part of our curriculum was to teach about insects, specifically the life cycle of the butterfly. We would receive our allotment of monarch caterpillars and watch their metamorphosis occur. Then the University of Kansas would send us tags so that they could track their migration to Mexico. So much fun!

    Happy Outdoor Wednesday,

    Valerie
