Sprinkling in Some Glam: How Does Your Garden Grow? {Part II}

Hopefully y'all are not sick of my gardening posts yet! Well, gardens are blooming everywhere I look and I am loving it! My little garden is doing pretty good (shockingly!) and I am really enjoying it! I love this time of year. We have had a lot if rain in Nashville (which definitely gets old at times), but the bright side is everything is so green and gorgeous! I wanted to share some more pretty garden tools and accessories that I think can make gardening a little more exciting for those whose gardens may not necessarily be a contender for garden of the month. And I also thought I would throw in a few more photos that I've run across over time and happen to find really inspiring...

Hello! I am crazy about this chair...indoors or out!

I would love to display some pretty potted plants on this fantastic cart

These vintage garden markers add some unexpected glamour

A pretty garden hose?! Why not!

Love this garden bench. I can picture the canopy overgrown with ivy.

Simple + pretty galvanized watering can

Fresh herbs are a great way to start a garden, plus they're easy to maintain.

A lovely way to display some fresh-cut flowers from your garden

Really cute little pinecone planter

Black + white paper lanterns to spruce up any outside space

A great basket to use for gathering up veggies and fruit from your garden (I wish i had a garden that produced enough fruit and/or veggies to need this basket)!

Bright and happy melamine plates for those outside summertime meals

I adore this roped cloche

Add some candle light with these porcelain hurricanes

Colorful wire trellis supports for those climbing plants

There is something so satisfying about growing flowers or produce from seeds

I soooo want this bench!

And here are some more garden photos that I find inspiring and will maybe get your creative thoughts reeling...

I absolutely adore this teapot staircase garden!

Love all the blue

Amazingly interesting rooftop garden...love the drawer planters!

Gotta an extra over-the-door shoe hanger handy? Here's a great way to put it to use!

:)

So so so pretty

LOVE this!

So, this is a greenhouse, yes, i'm serious!

This reminds me of that movie The Secret Garden, has anyone else seen that? My sisters and I used to watch it when we were little

I hope y'all had a Happy Memorial Day weekend! I feel like it went by soooo fast!

Sprinkling in Some Glam: How Does Your Garden Grow? {Part I}

First of all, i am not by any account, known for having a green thumb...mine is more latte colored! I really try to grow beautiful plants, but i seem to be challenged in this department. My sister, Katie, LOVES to garden and she is spectacular at it (she has a kick booty garden) and my mother is as well. That gene skipped right over me, i guess. I just planted some herbs and flowers, so we'll see how it goes this year round. I am determined to have a pretty + thriving garden! We do live in a townhouse, where the grounds are maintained by a landscaping service, so all of my plants are in pots and i've decided that I'll just blame it on that if my garden is less than successful! I find that I get really excited when I have great looking gardening decor, tools and accessories. I am an accessories girl and I manage to find plenty with any hobby I find myself getting into (this is up for debate if the accessories are necessary and/or make me any better at said hobby)! I am inspired by some really cute gardening accessories that i've found. Sometimes gardening tools and accessories can be drab and ho-hum...these are anything but...

Love this potting shed bar

Cute gardening gloves are a must have to keep the dirt from getting underneath your nails

Really pretty antiqued iron garden chair to sit alone or...

...to go along with this lovely antique table

Cloche's look so sophisticated and i love them, especially when they're part of an arrangement like this

Gorgeous colored planters that look great, even if your plants don't look the best

Simple and stunning

Fun little decorative mushrooms

Love the detail of these planters

Whimsical garden stem

Hydrangeas are some of my favorite and I love the moss pots that these are planted in

These are some of the cutest garden markers that I've seen

I really like this watering can, which acts like decor when not being used

Bright + fun gardening boots

I want this adorable burlap lantern

I love using vintage crates as planters

Sweet little moss birdhouse

I think the structure of this wooden + glass lantern is really cool

Love these glass hanging terrariums

Citronella candles have never looked so good

These globe string lights are my favorite style for sprucing up your outdoor space

Now if i could just get my garden looking something like one of these lovelies...

i mean, really???? Have you ever seen a cuter gardening shed???? Actually, i should say, gardening house!

Gorgeousness

And the kids can enjoy the garden in this insanely beautiful play house!

Modern city garden

Oh yeah, this looks doable

This little garden is charming, but I really love it against this striking blue wall

...I'll know i'm doing something right! Time will tell...! A girl can dream though, right?!

oxox,
lauren
