Wine Rack Store Blog

Spring in my garden means blooming flowers and massive amounts weeds. Every year it is a fight to keep them under control. They are in my flower beds and my gravel drive way. Basically if there is any clear ground, weeds will grow.

This year I have a better game plan. I am going to be put down weed blocking fabric and then cover it with bark. I won’t be able to do this in all my flowerbeds so I will still have to spend a lot of time pulling them out by hand. I could probably weave a wine rack from all the weeds I pulled out today.

When I finally conquer over the weeds I’ll be able to do the fun aspect of gardening, planting new plants. I have a lot of plans and have already bought a few plants in preparation. I take a lot of pride in my yard so it is going to take awhile to get it up to my high standards.

Planning for a wedding is hard. I have had my wedding colors picked for a long time. I always wanted white, silver, and pink. I am still set on the first two but am rethinking the third. This is a big deal because this color will determine what bridesmaid dresses and flowers I pick.

There are pros and cons to any color. I want to pick something where I have multiple types of flowers to choose from although I will probably stick with roses or gerber daisies. Perhaps when I settle on a venue, I will be able to make up my mind. The one I am considering right now is Asian themed so I was thinking red or yellow would be most appropriate. The bridesmaids would probably like these colors better than pink.

Perhaps I should just relax with a bottle of wine off my wine rack. Maybe the wine will help clear my mind and allow me to make a decision.

Spring must be close because the local grocery stores are starting to carry cut daffodils and tulips. Today I was able to purchase a 10-stem bunch of daffodils for only $0.99. That’s a heck of a deal for fresh flowers. I picked up two bunches to decorate my kitchen table with.

I assume we have such a lovely selection here in Washington because Skagit Valley, located up north, is famous for it’s flowers. I’ve traveled up there a few times in the spring and the view is incredible. The fields are just carpeted in all types of purples, reds, yellows, and oranges. The daffodil fields are so bright they are almost blinding.

It is definitely worth the drive up there is you have a free weekend and can tear yourself away from your wine rack. You need to be prepared for wet weather and mud though if you plan on walking in the fields. Also be ready to fill your car full of flowers or bulbs because it’s hard to leave without at least buying some bulbs for your yard.
