Extra Petunas? Have fun and plunk them into a bra planter!

Plant a Bra Pink

It looks like someone got creative when they were trying to come up with an idea for their extra petunias!

I’ve seen some unusual planters and garden decor, but I think this takes the cake!

I got this photo from the Garden Humor site. The photo originated in Australia. I guess the idea for this hot pink container came about as a way to raise awareness of breast cancer at a fundraiser to find a cure for breast cancer.

Great idea.

I wonder if this will cause anyone to create a lingerie garden?






Beautiful Bathroom Fixtures and accessories

by

Spring is a time of change and renewal. Time to look at the world with fresh eyes, so it’s only natural that so many of us begin to think about renovating or redecorating our homes.

As many of you know my husband and I have been renovating our home since the day we moved in six and a half years ago! It’s been a long slow process and I bet that by the time we’re finished we’ll be thinking of moving! One of the projects that we hope to complete this year is upgrading our upstairs bathroom and completely renovating our basement. Our basement also has a bathroom so that means we’ll be working on two bathrooms!

If you are in the midst of upgrading or renovating your bathroom you might want to visit Home & Stone. They have a wide selection of bathroom fixtures from which to choose.

Isn’t it time you accessorized your garden?

In my part of the world many of us are only dreaming about our gardens since they are still covered in snow or if not covered in snow the ground is still to cold to begin to work in. Still … many of us are probably beginning to think about what we’ll plant in our gardens this year, and if you’re like me your probably getting a little stir crazy indoors.

I certainly can’t wait for Spring to get here!

If you’re a gardener or perhaps hoping to start your first garden this year you’re probably busy making lists of plants you want to get for your garden, and starting some seeds indoors. While plants are the main feature of the garden don’t forget the accessories.

You can give your garden it’s own style or infuse a little more of your personality or even your sense of humor with garden decor an ornaments.

The article that I’m including below talks about how to accessorize your garden. Have you accessorized? I’d love to hear what you’ve done or even see some pictures!
