Garden Spoons

We are gearing up and getting ready to plant the garden. 

Tyson has hoed it. 

Lydia was 'helping' until she got distracted by 

a worm,

 a slug and 

then the adjacent 

sandbox.  

I wanted to create some garden markers this year. 

I decided on some wooden spoons. 

They were trickier to find than I anticipated. Most stores only sell plastic these days. 

They were at Neighborhood Wal-mart for $2.18 (for 3)

Lydia and Courtney painted them with acrylic paint.

Then I slapped on some old scrapbook stickers that I had on hand. 

I finished them off with a heavy coat of mod podge. 

I am hoping that will help withstand all the rain/water we have been getting. 

The peas and spinach were the first in the ground and we are holding off on everything else. 

I think they turned out pretty darn cute.
