Kireei - Window Farms

I just now found this intriguing site, Kireei, and read their post on the subject of Window Farms. Of course...I could not wait to share this innovative, charming and very useful idea with all of you!

What are Window Farms? A hydroponic system to have a real garden in a tiny, yard~less space... but this idea (above) is even more minuscule. All that is necessary is to have a humble window and recycled materials (I spy bleach and water bottles at first glance).

Click on the highlighted text above and you will find more information, links and even a how~to video!


Hope you're enjoying a serene and happy weekend.



Love and good thoughts to all.


Warmly,


Tracey and Family

Homespun Alchemy tm : Create Your Own Vertical Garden

wonders never cease at Terrain...



this reclaimed pine frame serves as an enchanted herb garden cum wall art: the frame above is planted with rosemary...mint...sage...basil...thyme and fennel






the steel and aluminum frame above is planted with heart fern...plumosa fern...scotch moss...club moss





the woolly pockets above are wonderful for planting vegetables and herbs outdoors and...when the weather grows cold...simply bring the woolly pocket indoors and enjoy a year~round herb garden!

If you're not yet familiar with Terrain at Styers you're in for a treat! Their online catalog practically bulges with inspiration. I confess to have gotten lost in it...far too many times!



The images above are a perfect example of its enchantment...and while you can simplify your wall garden planting by purchasing these cleverly useful frames...I'm sure you...my creative kindred spirits...will be conjuring up your own, homespun variations of similarly styled earthly delights!


If you'd like to see more visit Terrain !

Love and good thoughts to all!



Warmly,


Tracey and Family
