The wooden butterflies were cut out by a friend of mine and then i painted them.
I've even painted a lot of the purchased metal decorations so that there's plenty of fun and color in the garden while we wait for the flowers to grow and bloom.
Again you can see we're in a city and don't mind at all, in spite of the funny looks we get when people go by.
The lilac bush in the front yard is doing much better this year.
The arbor and all the lawn furniture used to be a lot of different colors but these days we're spray painting them "wildflower blue" and love the look.
I enjoyed painting the birdhouses and am painting a few flowers on the arbor as well.
Love the blue of everything!

Thanks, not only do we love the color but we've had real good luck with this paint by RUST-OLEUM on every sort of a surface. We use the spray most often and the can reads: Painter's touch Ultra cover 2x, Satin, Wildflower Blue, fast drying, ideal for indoor & outdoor wood, metal, wicker and more. We buy it at the local hardware store but I'm sure it's available in lots of places.
