Garden Centre Visit

Yesterday, Mum and I went to a local Garden Centre. I wanted to have a look at some of the gift ideas they had there and, as they have a nice little coffee shop, it seemed like a good idea to go for a coffee/tea while we were there ;o)


 We sat out on the verandah and had coffee/tea and fruit scones in the sunshine. There was a bit of a breeze but it was still pleasant enough to sit out.
 You have to walk past some of the displays on the way to/from the coffee shop and the autumn colours on this bench caught my eye.
 The elephants in the garden have been there since Emily was a toddler .
 They had a display of colourful pots which was quite bright.
 These bird cages were beautiful and reasonably priced but I don't know where I'd put one in our house.
 Mum's wreath is made the same as this one but a circle - very pretty.
 I liked these trees that were on display.
 Perhaps the sheep would like to be part of a nativity scene?
 And before we ended up spending too much, it was time to leave :)
