gardens

I long to have a lush, healthy green garden full of flowers, fresh herbs and fruit. My attempts at reviving the shrubbery surrounding my patio have been less than stellar so I have decided I must cut my losses and start over. This time I will be creating a container garden so that I can be in control of the soil quality and buy unique pots to spice up the area.

I like this collection of different pots and colorful flowers.

Not sure I could pull off this balancing act but I am definitely impressed.

This is a seriously cool apartment divider. Why not mix function with nature.
I'll have a room divider and a little oxygen on the side.
I wonder if I could hang this in my kitchen.



(check out more on this website)
This I could do. A mix of industrial and natural with gentle colors and fun textures.

Now if I can turn my brown thumb green I will be on my way to enjoying my own blooming garden.

refreshing

As much as I am trying to embrace color and texture I can't help but crave the clean simple lines in this photo. The table looks fresh and the room looks like it has the perfect summer breeze. Now all I need is an invitation :)
