Going Formal in a Patio Garden

Sometimes when the garden patio is all dressed up, it's fun to enjoy it as a guest.

Great "outside the box" banner, Fleur. That is definitely a space that would tempt me to linger... Thumbs up

That's a wonderful gift of a peek at one of your enchanted and enchanting places. I'm particularly amazed that you can get such a wide and clear image to fit within the boundary of banner dimensions. Did you have to piece it together?
I tip my hat to you.

Fleur, I rarely post any more, but I had to tell you what a wonderful job you do on banners. My banner making days are over, however, I always enjoy the talent and artistry displayed on this site.
Any day you wake up on the sunny side of the grass is a good day.
