Spring Life into your Garden.

Now that Spring is here for us in the southern hemisphere why not get back into the garden and get creative.
For step by step instructions on any of these tips please give me a comment and I'll send them through.
Use those old books as a fresh way to plant a little pot, imagine how cute sitting on your outdoor coffee table.


I loved this moss teapot for an indoor coffee table garden. You can purchase these from T2 in Australia.

Hanging pots are another suggestion for apartments or small spaces. Most gardening shops selling lots of styles and variations.

Hanging framed gardens are the new art staple for any garden, all you need is a deep frame, soil, chicken wire and herbs or flowers of choice.

Same as above only with some small cactus for a cute contemporary look.


Dont throw out some of those pre loved furniture pieces why not give them a coat of paint and create an art piece with your garden pots.

This san francisco artist uses all sorts of objects to create mini gardens for her industrial flat rooftop. Have a look in the garage and let your imagination run wild.

I loved the use of this wire cake stand to create levels for your little pots.

This is your typical wooden pallet transformed into a herb garden with long plastic pots nailed in behind for shelving look. 
Use those scrap 2nd hand tins to create a visual impact. An old suitcase also works well. Always drill a few holes in the bottom.

These are garden labels made from branches shaved and labeled with felt tip pen.


This chicken wire love heart with pebbles looks pretty hanging or sitting in any garden.

For those who are still flatting and want a little garden try the indoor vase garden, can also be made with old fish tank. Moss and cactus work best for this idea.


 Great way to display your house numbers is add a splash of paint to your standard clay pots.
