ORANGE

 I don’t know why, but I like orange and dislike red.  I’m sharing some sprinkles of orange in my sunroom.

The ottoman is in a Trina Turk orange print, the throw is orange with orange tassels, and the finials are Christmas ornaments that I just couldn’t put away.



Branches that I painted orange reflected in the mirror.



I decoupaged the elephant on to some books I covered in orange wrapping paper.


I used this pillow as a seat cushion to protect the caning on my Chippendale chair.


Coral on a pillow.


Coral candleholders, coral on a book cover, and more coral on the print.


I also have some coral prints in mirrored frames.  This is one of them.  I have six different ones layered on my windows.


Do you accent with orange in your home?

CONTROLLING FERNS

I love my perennial ferns, but they were becoming invasive.  I was getting tired of thinning them out and didn’t want to get rid of them.  My solution was to plant them in containers and restrict their traveling runners.  I put them in the planters in front of the garage.  They look great peeking out through the spheres.

 





I also added them to the cement planters on my patio.





I even had enough to fill some planters in the side yard.


My neighbor was also happy to have some to add to her garden. 

What do you do with your abundance of perennials?
