You don’t have to look long to find fun backyard greenhouses these days. However, I would caution anyone looking into purchasing a green house because it does take commitment to learn this type of gardening. You have to be prepared to fail a few times as you figure it out. Personally, I am so glad we did it but I have to admit that I do wish now we had bought a larger one. I guess that’s just the way it goes sometimes.

When it comes to pruning your bonsai to help it maintain its shape, there are several different methods to use. Of course, you will want to prune away old growth, and you do that during the mid-fall. New growth can be done using your fingers—just pinch it back. However, with the Chinese Elm and several other types of bonsai, you may actually want to use scissors. If the growth is fairly aggressive, trim it back at the shoots instead of simply pinching or cutting off the end. Just be aware that using scissors can cause the foliage and leaves to turn brown, while pinching them off can make them look a bit more natural.

Duh. So I looked through all the choices and found some very nice wooden ones that ended up working out great. I also found a wonderful pineapple finial that I bought as well to go on top of the cap. I collect pineapples because they are a very traditional way to welcome people into your home and I love that! I am so pleased with the way my fence now looks and my husband was pleased at how easy they both were to install. My mother-in-law came through again and I must say I love her for that!

For our affordable outdoor makeover, we ordered more than half of our items online. We focused on garden décor. Our purchases included a decorative bronze sundial, several window box planters, two dragonfly whirligigs, a cedar potting bench, a statue of St. Francis of Assisi, a few decorative stones and plaques and an old locomotive bell. I also bought two patio umbrellas on sale a local discount store. In the end, we spent about $250 to beautify our yard and gardens. Yet, they look like a million dollars.

There is ample room for the jet ski’s, the trailer and a lot of other things that have been competing for space in the garage through winters past. Now we can keep the lawn waste dumpster out of sight and put the grill inside during the winter months. Not to mention it has been wonderful to be able to just pull in and park the bikes versus hefting them up and down from hooks in the garage rafters since that was the only space available for them. Metal buildings have undergone some great improvements and are more durable than in the past. I’m very happy we invested in one.

I can’t remember if this flowering outdoor bonsai will be in bloom still or if its wonderfully fragrant and pink-tinged white flowers will have already surrendered their spot to the shiny new leaves. I’ve always wanted a crabapple bonsai tree and I dropped some rather broad hints last year. This year I’ll make darned sure my wishes materialize and I’ll order it online myself.

This piece is such a timeless classic that it has helped me design one of the rooms in my home around it’s grandeur.  Everyone has commented to me about how lovely the piece is, and I certainly earn points when guests who know their art compliment me on my good taste.  Wall art is an investment that brings the colors of any painting to life which also will last for many years of enjoyment.  Still to this day, this is the favorite piece of art I have in my home, and I would suggest purchasing this tapestry as I’m sure you will feel the same way.

I knew that I wanted something similar to use on my fence posts surrounding my lovely garden.  In looking for the perfect style for my chosen décor, I found several great post caps selections to choose from and had never even thought about using them before!  Of course they come in many different sizes and you will be able to find something that will work within your budget as well.  Post caps are fantastic for that special “touch” of class when you need one and so easy to use.
