Sharing from the She-Shed Volume 46
Good morning on this lovely Sunday! I’ve found Sundays to be the perfect day for my round-up posts, so you might notice this change moving forward.
It’s been yet another bustling week at WM Design House.
I’ve been incredibly busy in the garden, getting everything ready for a garden tour our city is hosting on April 14th.
Yesterday, with the help of many, we made significant progress.
Dahlias in the garden
I am starting to feel like I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.
I planted lots of seeds, and all of my dahlia tubers have been planted.
This is what they look like when you take them out of the ground.
Have you ever seen a clump of dahlia tubers? Last year, I planted one single tuber, and this year, I got 14. I can divide this tuber and get at least four plants from this one set of tubers.
If you are a dahlia lover like me, you know this makes my heart sing because these tubers will soon become the most beautiful flowers in my garden.
Other happenings at WM Design House
I underwent an MRI on my foot and will receive the results on Tuesday. I’m pleased to report it’s feeling somewhat improved, which is encouraging.
This week, we enjoyed time with family, and it was a joy to see my sister as we supported Madison, our eldest granddaughter, in her preparations for a ballet competition.
Being together is always wonderful.

I wish I had a lemon tree. We just made a double batch of limoncello and would love to pick them from the backyard. Thank you for sharing my lamb makeover. They were so fun to make. I appreciate you so much.
Lemon trees are very easy to grow. Maybe you could plant one. Your lambs were so cute and I always love sharing your projects. I appreciate you, too Rachel.
Happy Sunday, Wendy! I always enjoy seeing the views from your gorgeous garden. It’s still too cold to plant anything here for a few more months, so until then I’m living vicariously through you!
