I am not naturally gifted in the gardening area, but I know enough to be dangerous. One look I have always loved on a house is window boxes. They just scream charm and character, don’t you think?

We added window boxes to our old house, and I loved planting them each year. Here is a picture of our old house before we added the window boxes:

It’s the one thing I will definitely miss, this first year in our new home. Might have to add them to my project list…
Sorry I have been so sparse – my hubby was out of town last week, and it’s baseball season, so that means I’ve been spending a lot of time at my second home:

January 9, 2012 at 9:58 pmDid you make the window boxes yourself or did you purchase them somewhere?? I am looking to install about 4-6 of them at my house.
