Garden Treasure Hunting : Spring Things

Gentlepersons, Start Your Spring and Easter Buying Engines!   Time to start combing the stores for charming things that come in pastel shades of pure happiness.

Off to Walmart with you.  They have the best stuff right when you walk in the door, all so reasonably priced.  Most but not all things are adorable.

I personally have a weakness for Rabbits.  Yes, even though they eat all of my things.  So adorable!


Bunnies for the garden

I know what you're thinking when you see this:  Terrarium!

Everywhere since last fall are those cute little red trucks.  You know the ones, toy trucks that somehow look good in any scene.

How about a really cool truck you can paint any color you like?  It has wonderful details.  Look at the door handles.  Awwwww.   Mine will be...Pink!  Detailing in either cream or a very light mint green.

The English Garden: Why Terrariums Are Back In Fashion

I've tried many types of gardens over the years, and have always admired terrariums, but never had one.   There's a little bit of a "ship in a bottle" appeal to them, I think.   

After reading the article below, I understand the idea behind closing those poor little plants in without any air, but it still bothers me a bit, and I'd want to take the lid of for them now and then.

I do love glass jars, perhaps if I find just the right one, I'll give this a try.

  

One HUGE good thing I can see with these is that our cats, who think we have houseplants as their personal salad bar, would be able to see the plants, but not get at the plants.
