Today’s Feature is this Wagon Wheel Planter by The Scrap Shoppe Blog.
Every week I like to share a little recap of my week at the start of this party.
Time for some weekly recap photos:
This week we went to Grant’s Farm in St. Louis with my parents. This is one of my favorite places to go with the fam bam every summer! The kids got to ride the carousel, feed the baby goats milk, enjoy a snow cone, feed the parakeets and even go on a pony ride! The grown ups got to enjoy a free beer! Not a bad deal and it was a GORGEOUS day!
I finally finished up the last of my gardening by planting some small succulents in a bird bath turned fairy garden! Also, you can see my gorgeous limelight hydrangea bush is starting to bloom. We also enjoyed a picnic dinner INDOORS, because it started to rain. I love putting fresh basil with mozzarella and a cherry tomato on crackers! I am really enjoying my herbs this summer!
Nathan had his first karate tournament and he won FIRST place in Kata and even got a trophy for it! He got second place in the other two divisions, which were Sparring and an Obstacle Course. Brian and I celebrate the anniversary of our ‘second’ first date night every year at Vin de Set, a roof top French restaurant. We also got married here!

Wagon Wheel Planter
Last week Michele from The Scrap Shoppe Blog shared her Wagon Wheel Planter. Michele had seen a wagon wheel filled with succulents on Facebook and it inspired her to do a wagon wheel of her own! She found this blue wheel at a barn sale and decided to save money on it by filling it with sedum and flowers instead of pricey succulents. She’s going to share a photo on Instagram in a month after the flowers spread out and fill the rims!
Now hop over to all the other cohost’s blogs and see what caught their eye this week. You just might be featured there too! Don’t forget to grab this button if you’ve been featured.
