Itching to play in the dirt

Since it has been so much warmer that last few days, I am really starting to get the itch to see what is happening in our yard.
Since we moved in the middle of winter and everything was/is covered in snow, it is awfully hard to know how we want to put our stamp on it.
So I have been busy on my favorite on line dream place ( Pinterest) and have been busy thinking of what I would like.
Here is a few of them.

1.
 ~love the rustic feel~
I love the rustic feel of this one. We have some rather old buildings that I might be able to savage one of them and do this to it.

2.
How to build a faux stone walkway for under $40

Our pathway is plain old concrete slabs. I think this would spice it up fairly cost effectively.

3.
Outdoor recycling and trash storage solution

Organization  is key here. I love how it is all covered as well, but easy to clean out.

4.
A use for found tires. Hang on the potting shed/garage wall

I think this is so pretty. I would definitely love these in my yard.

5.
Rain chains are a beautiful and functional alternative to traditional, closed gutter downspouts. Guiding rain water visibly down chains or cups from the roof to the ground, rain chains transform a plain gutter downspout into a pleasing water feature. From the soft tinkling of individual droplets to the soothing rush of white water, they are a treat to listen to.

I definitely want some rain/wind chimes. I love the sound of these so peaceful.

6.
Great idea! Hide the downspout by building a trellis around it

Isn't this a cool way to hide those ugly downspouts.

7.
Dream Deck
Well since I am dreaming anyway. Right? I wonder if I could convince my handsome hubby to build this for me this summer. lol

8.
CHICKEN WIRE & SPRAY PAINT
What a cute way to add color to your yard. Would look really cool in the winter as well against all that white snow. :)

I'm linking up today with Angie for List it Tuesday. Come over and see what others have to list today.
