Using Iron Pieces Outdoors

I love iron pieces and use them inside and outside my home. They're great outdoors because they can withstand the weather and look good even when they get rusty. Here are a few pieces I have around the back of my house. I have one on the front of my house too, but forgot to take a picture of it. That's my dog, Zoe, in the last picture and she is hoping y'all have a marvelous Monday!

Love that you posted this! Your yard looks lovely! I'm working on getting a patio started and hopefully finished soon after. Once that's done - I'll surely take a look around for some iron pieces to use out there - I think it'll be great! Thanks for the ideas!

Very pretty. I like the one on the gate the most and I LOVE all your rabbits inside your house. I've got you in my blog roll and anxiously await your new posts because I share your fondness for rabbits and roosters.

I love using iron outside too! Your pieces are beautiful! I love the one on the gate. Acutally, I just love the whole gate and back yard! :)

Linda said...

Beautiful...all of them!

Any good hints on how you hung them on your brick. I have that same type brick and am afraid to drill or pound anything into it.

Your yard is beautiful! I picked up a beautiful iron piece at GW for $4 and then put it down. I've regretted it since. A woman came right up behind me and snatched it, smart woman!

I love your back yard, amazing. What kind of house do you have to have that kind of cool yard. I'm tyring to make something similar but I live Cookie cutter ville. Although they are nice homes I have neighbors everywhere even though my lot is half acre. I love that garden feel. How also do you get your iron on your brick did you use a special hanging tool? Loveit!!
