Show And Tell

It's Show and Tell Friday! If you would like to join in the fun, please visit Kelli's blog and leave a link to your post.

My show and tell for this week is the gazebo in our backyard. As you can see, my dog Raven enjoys using it also:



It's nice and shady under here-just ask my hubby. This is where he spent yesterday afternoon when he locked himself outside. We did get a larger table and some placemats with palm trees on them:



There are shelves for plants and I also hung windchimes in each corner:



It's also a good place to ripen tomatoes:



And this tropical hibiscus bloomed just in time for "Show and Tell Friday" so I had to take a photo:



Thank you for looking at my show and tell and thank you Kelli for hosting.

I have been thinking that is just what we need on our deck. We get so much afternoon sun--I believe you have the right solution!thanks for shring it.

The windchimes are a nice touch!

I love the way you have your gazebo set up and everything you have underneath it is so lovely!! Maybe you should leave an extra house key under one of the placemats for your hubby! LOL xo

i look at these every summer and try to figure out if i can make it work on my deck. i don't really think it would, but i want one, so i keep trying. maybe one day i'll just bite the bullet, buy one, put it up and live with it.

thanks for sharing.
