Alternative Gardening

I’m loving these suspended gardens from StringGardens of the Netherlands.  Wouldn’t they look having a whole string of little flowering plants with fresh grass growing on them hanging on your patio eaves?  Wondering if I could make one myself…

DIY Garden Chair

diy-hose-chair

I spotted this Rubber Hose chair (via curbly) and my head is just spinning with ideas.  Wouldn’t it be fun to play around with these colorful hoses?

I can just see a handful of them out on my back patio in a range of colors.  Nothing like a bit of color to make a space more fun.   Instructions on how to make the chair can be found here.

My favorite magazine:Elle Decor Idees

Usually I subscribe to 4-5 design magazines per year.  When it’s time to renew I gauge how much I like them by how many pages are earmarked, or just plain ripped out.  If there’s only one or two per edition I usually don’t renew.  This year I decided not to renew 3 of them and went with one that was a little more expensive and in French!  Was it worth it?  You tell me:

Marie Claire Idees
This is the first edition of Elle Decor Idees that I got.  More than half the pages are earmarked!

Here’s a few of the images from the current one that I loved!

Need an outdoor table but don’t want to spend a lot of money?  Here they took 3 different used tables and painted them all the same: white with an aqua stripe across the top.  I bet you couldn’t even tell at first glance that they are all different styles!

Picnic Tables
I’m not a huge “work in the garden” kind of lady.  I’ve tried!  I really have!  Every year for the last 3 years something else seems to eat/kill my plants.  But, I think I might try a little harder if my garden shed were painted like this!
