Last friday my buddy Heather from Massachusetts and I took our girls into the big city for the Boston garden show. It wasn’t as big as the Northwest Flower and Garden Show we have up here in Seattle, but there was still plenty to see.
Seriously. How cute is this packet of Mexican sour gherkin seeds from Hudson Valley Seed company? Their packets are so adorable I wanted to snatch up one of each. But at $3-$4 a pop… a little self control was needed. But seriously. How cute is that packet!?
A six foot long horse trough planted with flowers and vegetables…. another winner. Our troughs are only about 3 feet wide. If I had the space I’d totally get the bigger ones and have towers of pumpkins and other squash growing from them.
One day, when I bust out of here and have a small barn or a sugar shack…. I’m totally going to get a copula like this. Seriously, what is it about whale weathervanes that make them so cool to look at? And the copper top. It’s going to have a beautiful patina in a year or two.
Wouldn’t a bunch of these glass blown jellyfish look dreamy hanging from a kitchen bay window with the light shining in?
Ahh the tiny house. For the longest time The Girl thought she might want to build a tiny house and live in one. Until last weekend when she toured the inside of one. 😉
The asking price on this particular tiny house was $55,000.
I don’t know about you, but I think I’d be more afraid I’d fall out of bed and land on my head in the middle of the night {or that the thing might blow away} than anything else.
Or that a small kitchen fire might burn the whole place down before I could get out. It was cute though, but I’d need something a little more substantial.
What is this type of lacework called? Anyone know? Isn’t it pretty?
I totally took the brochure for the glass greenhouse.
And isn’t this red woodstove dreamy? Those of you with woodstoves…. what brand do you own? Vermont Castings and Jotul woodstoves are the only ones I’m familiar with. The red and cream ones are my favorite. Do you love yours? Does owning a wood stove save you a ton of money on your heating bill in the winter?
Well, that’s it for now. Have a great Tuesday everyone,
