Remember those shrub frames I made in November? I finally got around to making at least one of them pretty.
After this one was built, I primed the side that would be facing outwards, then using miscellaneous, leftover house paint and a few extra acrylics I had on hand, I painted it with an appropriate winter theme. The second last step was to give it a protective clear coat, and the final step was to put it in place over the shrub it was meant to protect. Connor loves the snowman! I like the fact that I don’t have to look at a boring wood frame.
As you can see in the picture, we have a bit of snow. Here’s another shot so you can see just how much snow there is.
We don’t go anywhere too fast at this time of year. The car is always packed with extra clothing, boots and blankets - just in case.
The other day while clearing snow I came across something that made me smile. A lonely little oak leaf.
It made me think of all the other wonderful things that are hiding under the snow. Can’t wait to see them again soon!
