buying like mad...

WE ARE  BUYING LIKE   MAD  RIGHT NOW, GETTING  READY  FOR THE NEW YEAR... i  have most of the garden iron ordered  and its  going to be  a lot... nice  big  arches like the one above in my  garden at home...gazebos, lots of  trellises, benches,  fences, all kinds of planters,from  huge to  nice and small , also hanging  planters  armillaries,  wall baskets,  trikes,   topiary....etc etc etc...WE ARE  GETTING  SOME POTTERY   THIS YEAR  TOO....AND I HOPE THOSE  NICE  BIG   CHIMES....

we go to the  gift  show in a few  days...that's in Chicago  where we order from the  big  companies...i  hope i can  find  the right stuff... its  really HARD!!!  what i like is usually   pretty  oddball or  way too expensive  so i try not to  go  there on  everything....altho we do have a lot of  fun   oddball customers  too...THANK HEAVENS....
AND  THIS  YEAR I  WANT TO KEEP  WATCHING  THE PRICES AND NOT  GET TOO HIGH...EXCEPT  FOR A  FEW THINGS..
i like this time of  year to   change  things around  and   work on  new  ideas....
