This is my current favorite corner. The step stool and the watering can I got at the curb last year. I spotted the step stool and had to have it. When I grabbed the stool I saw the watering can. My lucky day. I liked the stool color and rust as is, so it needed no work except for plastic feet to keep the patio sealant nice and fresh. The flower pots were free from the cemetary at the end of the season. I got a free bowling ball at the bowling alley (just ask). I had seen other people cover them in pennies and I really liked them. This is probably the most expensive thing in the corner because it took about $3 in pennies to cover. I didn't cover the bottom completely because I didn't see the point. Earlier this year I went to the designer house with my friend Cary and they had a bedroom and bathroom done with penny accessories. They had a penny bath mat, picture frame, and my favorite was a penny valance.
Back to my corner. I switched up my usual totem and made this teapot totem. The total cost for the totem was about $1.50 and that included the plant that was on the .50 table at my new favorite nursery. The brown teapot with green plates has a really cute retro look. My husband actually noticed it and made a pleasant comment. Usually he just tolerates me so this is a winner.
