A perfect match, don't you think.
I have just the climbing rose that is begging for an opportunity to show off and flaunt it's flowers.
If you haven't started an inspiration book, stop what you are doing and start one now.
You can thank me later.

Yes! Do it! That's gorgeous. I long for an English cottage garden look but our dirt is dreadful, it's too hot here, takes too much water, etc. So I'm planning a back bed of plants that do well here and I'm going to pack it full so that something's always blooming.
And I do have an inspiration file cabinet - different files for different areas - bedrooms, kitchens, etc. So much fun to look thru. Can't wait to see your progress.

It would look gorgeous. I have clippings in a file folder. I should get them in a book. : )

YES! The garden spot is perfect! Can't wait to see the Patty version. I took a break from creating an inspiration journal to visit you and look what we have here! You are awesome.

Ooo, YES! This is a great idea for this corner. And I do have inspiration books although most of my inspirations evaporate before I can get around to them. Kudos to you for making them real!
