Hello my friends,
it's been a while since I've done a Tuesday's Tour.
And boy, do I have a fun garden tour for you today!
A few months ago I met Joanne on Instagram.
Paula from FLEA.O.LOGY had told her to follow me, (Thanks Paula!)

We both have a love of gardening and so we instantly hit it off.
One day I realized that she lived 20 min. away. Near the town I grew up.

In the Spring she invited me to come see her garden. With all of the rain we had I didn't make it there until June.
I have lots of photos to share, but I don't think you'll mind. :)
I went in the evening so I could capture her garden as it lit up.

This sweet vignette was on her deck off of the back of their home.
I love the drop cloth cover she made for her lounger!
She recently scored this fabulous birdcage off of ksl.
This hutch out on her deck was filled with Americana goodness!
As we step out into the garden there were touches of whimsy tucked in every where.
These darling lampshades lead to her adorable playhouse.
Now we get a peek at the top of the playhouse.
This cute fella is welcoming us inside.
Look at all of these lovelies on the front porch.
Curtains that would have every little (and big) girl swooning!
And the mantle, oh my gosh the mantle, is it not just magical?
Love her collection of vintage mirrors!
Eye candy in each and every corner.
It took a bit of persuading, but I finally talked JoAnne into stepping out for a photo.
This gal deserves recognition, don't you agree?
Can you tell I love those lights? :)
And folks this is not all. ..
Look at her fun pergola.
She recently scored this corbel for $30 off of Vintage Yard Sale Utah. What a deal!!
Getting ready to add seats to these coral beauties.
Paper bird garlands fly from the ceiling.
This shed may be rustic, but it's covered with vintage fun.
Especially love the 'garden' words!
As dusk sets in, the garden becomes magical!
I did not alter any of the photos in this post because I wanted you to feel the ambience.
This path lined with columnar trees was just added this year.
I feel so blessed to now call Joanne my friend!
I hope you enjoyed her garden as much as I did!!
hugs,
Jann

Wow! Wow! Wow! I'm so glad you got to meet Joanne. What an amazing garden and outdoor space. There's so much to love. Just the structure of that patio is amazing to begin with but the way it's decorated is so much fun. Like you, I love the lampshade lights leading out to the play house. What a fun idea. :)
Now I can only imagine what the inside of Joanne's house must look like. She's definitely got creative decorating skills. Loved this tour!
Are we allowed to follow you and Joanne on Instagram? If so, how do we find you both?
Hope you don't mind...I've been Pinning away!

Wow oh Wow!! I have just died and gone to heaven....again! What a post filled with visual delight. I can imagine many an hour lounging on that lounger with a good book. The pond and waterfall are amazing AND those lampshades...fabulous! Thank you, Jann, for the most pleasant of strolls through your friend, JoAnne's lovely home.
Really iovely! I will be copying the lampshade lights. Adorable!
Jann, you really captured the ambience of the garden. What a beautiful yard! She really has a green thumb and a love for vintage. Loved the whole tour.
Hello Jann, I am so happy that I didn't miss out on this post. Her garden takes my breath away . . . those lampshades are truly amazing. What a creative gal. Oh, and I love how she spelled out Garden on her shed. If this isn't a garden to remember and day dream about . . . I don't know what is. Oh, oh, oh, oh! I just can't get over how darn cute the lamp shades are.
Thank you for sharing your friend's garden with us, and give her a big "thank you" hug, too.
Your blogging sister,
