It's that time of year, planting my vegetables, cleaning the pond, and filling the pots on my porch with beautiful annuals. This weeks finds are celebrating gardening.

Down By The Pond: Small Animal Team Treasury

For me it is always fun but challenging to create a team treasury. When I create a non-team treasury, I always have a theme in mind. When I create a team treasury, I go to the member list and just start clicking on shops who's avatar or name peaks my interest. When I see some awesome creation that sparks my treasury creativity, I proceed with searching the other members' stores.

With this particular treasury, I first found the adorable felted frog by Blackberry Downs Woolery. Then the thoughts of all the musically talented frogs we have living in or around our pond that entertain me every evening. Finally thoughts of all the animals living life around the pond that fascinate me.

Hope you enjoy it.
