Fourth of July Garden Furnishings
Over the Fourth of July weekend, I found myself in the vicinity of the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, spending time with a friend exploring little towns in Shenandoah County. We stumbled on a cute little store in Mt. Jackson, Virginia called Wetlands Trading Company. “Ponds, Carpentry, Landscaping,” reads their business card, and “Garden/Gift Shop, stone, Mulch, Pond Supplies.” In other words, something for everyone.
So this week, no in-depth look at plants, just some fun ideas you might like for your own garden. Enjoy!

A tilted birdhouse and weathered peacock “sculpture” with Miscanthus in the outdoor area.
Indoor mermaids and seahorses add more whimsy to the store.
These eye-catching sun decorations come with blue or gold faces.
Three rabbit figurines greeting visitors – one with crooked sunglasses.
Sunglasses seemed to be a popular accessory for many of the wooden figures.
