Finally, Rain

June 25, 2007 By Karen Creel

There is a water shortage in Georgia, and restrictions have been placed on watering your garden. We can only water on certain days. Our vegetable garden hasn’t suffered, because my husband has been responsible for it. We had some great fried squash with dinner last night. There is going to be lots of cucumbers, and…

GardenChick Ramblings

April 10, 2007 By Karen Creel

Well, I can cross this blog creation off of my New Year’s “To do” list. The original date was January, but considering the procrastinator that I am, April’s not too bad. Now, if I can just get those taxes done on time!. I wanted to start the blog as an extension of my business “Gardenchick”,…

A Quick Note…

Gardenchick is a place for gardeners, flea market fanatics, lovers of the farmhouse look, and purveyors of all things rusty!

I’m not sure when my fascination with junk began, but gardening was in my blood from an early age.  I remember my grandmother could throw a few seeds out and have the prettiest flowers.  Sweet peas were rampant beside the front porch.  I can see her now, bent over pulling weeds, and I find myself doing the same thing anytime I’m in the yard.  My dad was raised on a large farm, and even though he moved away, and we always lived in the city, he had a garden.  He had me help him  plant a garden in May before he died in August.  So you can see, gardening just comes naturally to me.

I can’t explain the love of rusty and all things chippy, but I have dug through more barns and sheds than I would like to admit to bring out a rusty wagon or old chicken feeder.

So, I hope you will follow along, and we can learn a few things together.  I’ll be sharing gardening ideas, my flea market finds, and thrifty ways to repurpose.
