Top 6 - No ordinary flowerpot - kukkamaan koristeet

I'm a huge fan of vintage. I want my garden to look a little bit sweet, old-fashined and slightly different.  A little bit like an old candy box if you know what I mean. At the same time I want to be also ecological. My summer holiday just started and I finally got time to make my garden more bohemian and more beautiful. I used old kitchenware, carpet rags, burlap etc. With them I used quite ordinary old clay pots and got nice contrast and interesting combinations. I had a wonderful afternoon. I like to play with the general idea of Top 5, Top10 Top whatever - I do it with wrong numbers...so here you are: Top 6 garden decorations.

Tänään minulla oli aikaa puuhailla puutarhassa. Rakastan vanhoja esineita ja jos vain voin haluan tehdä asioita ekologisesti. Niinpä käytin ruukuiksi vanhoja astioita, juuttikangasta, joululahjakukka-asetelmien rottinkikoreja ja koristelemiseen matonkuteita. Haluan tietenkin asioiden näyttävän kauniilta, joten mikä tahansa ei kelpaa ja aikaa vierähti tovi jos toinenkin. Vanhoja savisia kukkaruukkujakin tuli pari tänään käytettyä ja yhdistelemällä tavallista ja epätavallista saa aikaan kivoja kontrasteja ja mielenkiintoisia yhdistelmiä. Tässä Top 6 eikä viisi taikka kymmenen.

  1. Lovely ideas! And I like your "six" rather than 5 or 10. Cute... The rusty chain link fence works perfectly as well with the whole theme.

    You live somewhere like I do with short summers so you might as well make the most of them, right?

  2. Yes Sandra, definitely our summers are too short! But it's so beautiful now and we have midsummer and lot of light through the night also...it's great!
