Love yours... chippy paint is always a good thing! Love the way you used your vintage camera collection in your photos!

EEEEKKK They matched the plant exactly in color!

So cool! I'd love to attend a CL Fair someday if they ever decide to host one in MN.

We planted it one year and haven't had to plant it since. It reseeds generously so if you plant it be on the lookout for lots of volunteers the next year. Great for wreaths and sachets.

I bet you had a lot of fun.

It sounds like it would have been a great place to be! I love the lunch box. I was lucky (?) enough to come home for lunch in Elementary School, and I probably wouldn't be caught dead using a lunch box in Jr. and Sr. High school! Now, they are really a cool thing to collect. I have several that men (grandpap) would bring to work (laboring in the steel mill or other such place). Alas, they don't have drink containers.

I think I carried a brown sack because mom couldn't afford 2 lunch pails.
