~Walking Through the Garden~

Our garden this winter is so green.
We've had so much rain in San Diego.
I planted some Sweet Peas, love them!
The cabbages just love this weather!
Our alstroemerias will be blooming soon.
I can't wait!

~Miniature Gardens~

~Pansies~

Stan did a good job on this succulent arrangement!
The succulents love growing in this birdbath.
Stan definitely has a green thumb growing his Spanish Moss.
This arch is not in bloom yet.
It has a rose, snail plant and purple trumpet.
I can't wait to share it with you when it does bloom!
~Happy Gardening~

~A Winter Terrarium Project and Simple & Sweet Fridays #204~


I wanted to share with you a terrarium project,
 I made with some girlfriends.
I had to come up with a craft for a birthday party for my friend, Yuri.
I love gardening as you all know, so I thought why not a terrarium.
Its a very easy craft! 
I found the globes at a Floral Supply Store.
We used 2 different kinds of moss.
I collected lots of succulents from our garden.
For the project you can use paint brushes, tweezers, old silverware and chopsticks
to place your plants with.
I found the little mushrooms at a craft store.
But,
 you can make your own with fimo clay.
We used paper plates to work on.
 I placed the terrariums on a mason jar lid to be easier to work with. 
They loved the project!

The birthday girl, Yuri,
was the first to finish!
I gave the birthday girl a Godiva treat!
Every girl loves chocolate!
Tami hosted the birthday party at her beautiful home.
Linda made the drinks, Virginia made a delicious mac and cheese.
Tami made appetizers and lunch. Mary made the birthday cake.
It was a wonderful party.
We always have fun celebrating birthdays in our group!

I found the perfect place to hang the terrarium.

 Sunday was our son, Scott's birthday.
I can't believe he turned 31 years old, 
where did the time go?
I made a German Chocolate cake.
Happy Birthday Scott!

~Fairies in the Garden and Simple & Sweet Fridays #171~

This is the time of year,
 I always make sure our miniature gardens are looking good.
I usually add new plants and take the weeds out.
I wanted to share with you one of the
 miniature garden areas we have.
This miniature garden is behind our Birch Tree.
I love walking through it and seeing all the fairies.
I have a wheelbarrow with a fairy scene on it.
 I made pumpkins, carrots and eggplant from fimo clay to add to the miniature wheelbarrow.
Lots of fairies and gnomes everywhere.









Wagons make a whimsical display for a fairy garden.


A banner and signs are added elements to the garden.





~I hope I gave you some ideas for your Fairy Gardens~

Can't wait to see your new projects this week!!
