Happy New Year!
I was looking through my old pictures from last year in the garden and thought I would do another calender with a garden bench(or seating) theme for you.
January
February
March
In March and April it is my indoor garden in the sunroom that I enjoy.
April
May
June
July
August
September
October
November
Today is the day our Christmas tree has to come down as it has been up a few weeks now and it is dropping a lot of needles, but I still hate to see it go! I think,I will take the decorations down in stages so it doesn't look so bare all at once.
I hope you enjoyed The Garden Bench calender!
Hope you have a lovely day.
Carolyn
Beautiful pics of the garden. I am like you too, I can not take down Christmas all at once, this year I am having a tough time taking down the master bedroom tree....it is so pretty....maybe tomorrow..or the next day! Diane
ReplyDeleteYour pictures would make a wonderful calendar.
ReplyDeleteour tree comes down today too..but it is still so fresh.
Wonderful! I think Sept and Dec are my favorites..If someone MADE me pick:)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Carolyn! I love October - but then I love them all...

Each month is a total delight with your gorgeous photos Carolyn. Have an incredible New Year my friend.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed it very much, Carolyn! Such beautiful pictures and your gardens are so lovely! We don't have a real tree and I'm pushing it to January 6th before I take it down. I still have to go back up to the attic and get the bins and boxes back down ~ not looking forward to that part!
ReplyDeleteI love your calendar! If I had to pick, I'd go with August as my favorite. I don't think I could resist such a scrumptious bed!
ReplyDeleteThank you for delighting us throughout the year with your vignettes. I so enjoy them!
Carolyn, the pictures absolutely feed my soul. Stunning!

Thank you for sharing your vision - it is a joy to me. I am sending a wish for you for 2012 - that you are blessed with your hearts desires. Hugs
ReplyDeleteDarling Carolyn, you have a special file in my computer, where I put all the best I see of your photos... But these all will take that way!
ReplyDeleteI wish you a very sweet and serene New Year!

I really enjoy visiting your blog. It`s so inspiring. I wish I could create such a lovely and calm place of my house in Poland. Happy New Year:-)!
ReplyDeleteDid I enjoy your photo calendar today? How could I possibly not ...you did not disappoint. Thank you for sharing such beauty.

Dear Carolyn.....GORGEOUS! Loved every month.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous year. I look forward to all of your extremely beautiful posts. Susan
ADORE every month of your calendar photos, but I look forward to chilling out in our hammock in October ;o)
ReplyDeleteCarolyn,
ReplyDeleteIt would be lovely to sit in any one of these delightful settings. That being said (and meant), the light in the September photograph is just wonderful!

October is my pick. I wouldn't be surprised to see an elf peeking out from under the hammock! ~ Maureen
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pictures! I don't want to spend my time in that thing in January though, lol. I prefer the lilac in April.
ReplyDeleteWish you a very splendid 2012.
Love Elzie
Dear Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteA Happy New Year to you, Andrew and your family! I hope you had a lovely time?! My parents came to stay on New Year's eve. We had an enjoyable evening with games and even some fireworks!
I enjoyed seeing the flashbacks of your garden. The photo's make me look forward to spring & summer even more. My head is full of new ideas....
Happy day!

So many beautiful spots to rest and enjoy your surroundings! I especially love the resting places in the garden!
ReplyDeleteHappy new year
ReplyDeleteThanks for your lovely blog
Hi Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you and yours! Love the family photos from your Christmas dinner a couple of posts down. So nice to have everyone home for Christmas like that. I like the calendars you have put up for us. You have a lot of beautiful photos. I think you could sell calendars and greeting cards at your garden tours. Isn´t that a fabolous idea?! :)
Have a great day,
Sanna
Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteI must tell you that I come here for a breath of fresh air. I am a caregiver for my young husband who has Early Onset Alzheimer's. This week has been exhausting for me. But as I look at your lovely home and gardens and listen to the music I am renewed.
Thank you!!
Happy New Year to you too.
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures. I could move into every single one of them :0)
A lovely calendar, apart from the December one which is gorgeous, my favourite is May. Everything looks so fresh and beautiful then.
ReplyDeleteI love these photos-your home is like a fantasy. I love October. Wish I had a enlargement of that for my wall.
ReplyDeleteA very happy new year pour you and family
ReplyDeleteKinds regards from the Sud Provence

How I wish our yard and flowers looked like yours. I try--but never quite get those results. Love the tea and cookie settings--so pretty...
ReplyDeleteDear Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteYou really need to put together your OWN book...your home and garden are beautiful and I must say you are truly gifted with a camera..I'm always stopping by..
Kindredly,
Shirley
Your home and gardens are absolutely gorgeous all year round.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you and yours!
Hugs, Cindy
Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful! I love the hammock in October. They are all gorgeous. You have a much more amazing setting than I have here in IL. Your gardens are just amazing. Happy New Year!

Thank you for the extra images! I kind of figured the snow pictures were from last year. I'm wondering if we'll ever get snow!
ReplyDeleteWishing you a delightful first week of January! Stay warm! Oh, and we took our tree down today too. Sad but it feels good to be getting the house back to normal.

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous, Carolyn. I always love visiting here with you. ♥
