Happy gardening days....

In the past few weeks i have been gardening madly in preparation for putting our home on the market. Its safe to say with the two moves which we have made in our lives, leaving the garden is probably just as hard as leaving the home. Its a haven where you can think; loose yourself and be completely at one with your surroundings. The light this morning was gorgeous so i couldn't resist taking these shots.



I love the way the beautiful old peppermints sit so beautifully in the background of this garden. It makes it look like an extension of the actual garden.


This is a lovely hellebore i planted last year...and is now doing really well. Sad times but many happy times in our new home with lots of planning and renovating to come. Dont worry i will keep you posted with lots of before and after shots.

I think I died and went to heaven when I saw your garden pictures. I can only imagine the pain in knowing you'll soon be leaving it! My garden isn't half as gorgeous as yours and if the day comes that I have to say good-bye, I don't know if my heart will ever recover!

The garden pictures are wonderful; the work involved must have been enormous but rewarding! Your shop is wonderful with so many beautiful items... (reminds me of home - England); it's picture perfect.

Hi Amanda, your garden is gorgeous and I am sure it will give its next owner lots of fulfillment too. But happy times ahead for sure, and before and after photos would be great! Thank you for your lovely comments about my bathroom. Have a great week, Tammy

Your garden is wonderful...quite English actually. I am sure you will be sad to leave it, but you will have a new place to add your wonderful style to. Linda x
