I feel like we have enough stress in our lives not to have to add to it. It's garden season and I like to have an easy win. I like to have food that I know I will be able to put on my table.
Here we are in spring. The weather is getting nicer. I am so ready. When we get a couple of really nice days out it seems we get spring fever. We want to move along as soon as we can.
Do you have a green thumb? I like to think I do. Only when it comes to certain items. I love having a vegetable and herb garden every year. Not only is it something that benefits me every year but something that will help when I go to sell my home.
Sometimes a small fountain or fishpond just isn’t enough when it comes to giving your garden that extra kick you need to make it one-of-a-kind. If you want your children and friends to applaud your audacity and imagination in the home-and-gardening sphere, an extreme garden ornament just might be that elusive item you’re in search of.
Water adds so much to a garden. And while ponds and pools are nice, the trickle and splash of an active fountain breathes fresh air and even a bit of a mystical quality into your garden oasis. When it comes to choosing or building a fountain for your garden, there are many options available to you. Some of these options can be quite complex (if you so desire), but they don’t have to be.
