What you call Swedish Ivy... we call Persian shield. Here in California, mine is so prolific, that just today I filled my entire green bin with cuttings,. It roots like crazy just by putting a cutting in dirt. I adore it!!! I gift it to everyone who visits my garden, as they all love it too. It has been a challenge keeping everything alive in these triple digit days. For your small wall containers near the back door... I use the small little bag of gravel from the Dollar Store to top dress small containers, which really helps to hold the moisture in when you water. BTW.... your fountain sounds so peaceful !

With our recent zone change, Persian shield is now a perennial, not an annual. I can hardly wait to try it in the ground and see what happens.

Not a problem. Our house is situated where we have lots of privacy except for the front of the house. The bedrooms upstairs on the front of the house have curtains and blinds. We have blinds in our back bedroom and in the bathrooms. But because the house is so small and I love looking out into the garden, I prefer to leave off curtains.

Love , love the basket of peaches below the painting. I have done the same with an old painting of a black and white bunny with an old blue and white cracked stoneware platter. It is framed on the wall in the kitchen, and underneath I have a shelf with a black and white wood bunny, a small flow blue plate and tarnished silver tray. Seeing the replication is so charming to me. Your peaches look perfect in that basket! Your home is like a warm hug! My favorite is always the kitchen! Those window shelves are such a focal point. Love all your copper, and stoneware and glasses. And you always cook the best dishes. That salad sounds so good on a hot day like this. I think we are down to 95 today!!!!!! And its so nice that you don't worry over the kitchen looking lived in, with the little chips and dings. Thats what a true home is.

I don’t want to go to the expense of slip covers right now. It’s brilliant to buy some fabric and pin it to the furniture so that I can still see the pattern on the furniture and the pattern that will be on the fabric. I will be at my local fabric shop next week buying some. Thank you so much for the idea!!
