Shopping Wishlist for Our Garden

Good day everyone! Another sunny day is here! I can truly feel the spirit of spring time! I will be hitting our garden this week since the weather is getting very friendly now. Hubby also took some vacation leave days to help me in the garden makeover. I am also planning to buy more garden accessories. I already have some but I want some new and styling ones. Last year, I spent some hundred Euros only for my garden stuffs. I am quite excited for the coming weeks especially when everything will be done.

a very nice garden figure I found in a garden center the other week. I am planning to buy it once our garden makeover is done.

My shopping wishlist for our garden this year is quite a myriad. I would be happy to buy garden baskets since I don't have it in our garden. I also want some new flower pots. Either a zinc one or a ceramic is fine for me. A solution for a rainy season is a new mud hog. This is good especially if it gets muddy and this Mud Hog will help us scrape off the mud before going inside our house. It is also very easy to clean. Ours needs a replacement because it is already old and dilapidated.

What's else do I need in our garden? I believed I have a long list. I also need to buy some flowers, gardeners half apron (I have been gardening for years now but still did not have one), a bigger watering can, garden kneeler, garden solar lights, plant supports, flower stands and other garden accessories that I might need. Anyway, I am still starting to note everything. For sure this will be another fun in our garden. I am quite excited!

Have a lovely day!

Spring Time is Garden Time

Spring is finally here! It officially started in Germany last Monday March 21, 2011. I am quite excited because I already see some flowers blooming in our garden. The crocus are the first ones that are currently blooming. Spring time is garden time! It is time to slowly shop for garden accessories. In fact, we went yesterday to the nearest supermarket to window shop for garden accessories and garden furniture. The supermarket is so big that you can see a lot of goods and merchandise including house and garden decors and accessories.

garden accessories at the supermarket we visited yesterday. I love especially the shades of these garden decors.

I am also trying to look for garden ideas because there will be a garden makeover very soon. We are only waiting for plan and we will submit it for approval in the proper authorities. It needs to be approved because it is quite a big project. Actually it is the making of a garage and at the back will be a garden terrace. An architect is still working on it.

Hubby is also planning to install some lighting. I am quite excited how our garden will look like after everything will be done. I already browsed some garden ideas last week and I hope that we can finalize it before the end of the month. Spring is one of the best seasons of the year for me. You know why? I simply love flowers and I can't wait to start gardening again. Have a lovely day!

Need A Yard Makeover

Did you just see the second image I posted here? This is a part of our yard and garden. Have you seen the dilapidated walls near the stairs going to the pavilion? I believed it is very clear now why we need to do some yard makeover. Our yard will have a new face before summer comes. I guarantee that. This is also the reason why until now, I am still searching for good ideas on how to transform this space into an enchanting part of our garden.

I have been looking for garden ideas in magazines and in the internet for the past weeks. Good to know that I already found some. Hubby and I only need to decide what is the best one. We are also planning to buy new set of garden furniture and maybe some outdoor toys like sand pits and slide for children to play. The latter is quite a good idea since we don't have a room inside the house for children to play. For sure, my friends' children will be surprised about this.

Here are some images from our chaotic garden.

Some of the flowers I grow in our garden. I hope to arrange them better this year especially with our yard makeover project.

This is a part of our yard that needs some make-over. See how scattered and disarranged were the stuffs that you see here? In fact, our garden needs a new look soon. Something that is quite appealing and charming. This was taken last year in summer. This lawn space will be transformed into a charming outdoor living room this coming summer season. For sure, I will share some pictures when it is done. I also wanted to put here a new garden set. Watch out for its new look in summer.

Home and Garden Ideas

Are you ready for the next season? Spring is coming soon in Europe. As far as I can remember, it was still snowing at this time of the year last year. I am so happy because this month, I can already feel the spring air. It is time to slowly do a lot of things outside. I am also looking for helpful home and garden ideas because we will be doing some home renovation soon. Our garden also need some make over.

the beautiful tulips in our garden from spring 2010. I can't wait to see them again very soon!

I went outside this afternoon to look at the plants especially the tulips that are slowly growing. The crocus flowers are also blooming now. I am excited to make a new landscape in our garden. I am also planning to buy some outdoor toys so that my friends' children can play outside. This is always my problem every time I host a party because I have no toys for children to play. This year might be a different one. Children will soon have the chance to play and enjoy outside.

Since we will be building a terrace this spring time, I would also love a coffee table set in it. I am already imagining drinking a cup of coffee in our terrace while watching the beautiful flowers in our garden. That is quite a lovely experience.

I hope we can decide for a charming and appealing home and garden ideas as soon as possible. Thanks to computer and internet. It help us find ideas on how we can improve our home. I can't wait to see all the improvements being done this coming summer season.
