when this arbor was built last summer, i agonized over the color choice for the paint. when it was finished, i was a bit disappointed to see how blue it was instead of the tree-trunk grey i had hoped it would be. but now that it's covered with lovely, lush vines, heavy with grapes, i see how silly that was. draped serenely in morning sunlight, it would still be beautiful even if it had been painted orange.

it's so beautiful!
So beautiful, so inviting.
I like it too, especially the grapes. Do the birds leave any for you? I know someone who built a grape arbor over her deck and had to dodge bird droppings--your location is better.
Yay for God and His greenery.
It really is pretty.
I understand what you mean. It's a good thing that nature is so very forgiving, isn't it? She lets us make minor errors.
The arbor looks great, by the way.
the frame through to somewhere magical.... wow... just my sort of place and good choice.
everything will look great and wonderful with the touch of nature. It's so beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Now I value and appreciate nature.
IT IS LOVELY.
There is nothing more welcoming than a draped archway. I have one in my small garden covered with jasmine and it makes me smile every time I look at it. :)
