Top Gold for my friend Whitney

Some photographs of Whitney's garden which won Top Gold at the Kent Show July 2011.  I spent a few days in as many weeks lending her a hand.

Thought I would never look at a scaffold board again, but I have found myself researching them to create raised beds in my own garden.

My daughter fell in love with these painted jars - I am collecting jars once again and just bought the paint so she can make some herself.
