    Decking out the Deck: Progress

    Between the front foyer redo, the closet organizing, and the laundry room painting we thought it would be a great time to add another project, decking out the deck. To be fair I couldn't really control the timing, it was well past time to start planting. To date, we have bought and planted all of our new annuals, we are just waiting until they fill in a bit more to do a full reveal. But I thought I'd let you in on a sneek peek.

    We used "Blackie" I believe it's a potato vine, Yellow Petunia's and Flowering Tobacco (I love the bright green Flowers). Most of the deck will follow the same color palate as this planter. The contrast between the bright green and yellow against the dark black leaves is my favorite color combo for plants.
