Something New For The Garden

In the current issue of Country Living Magazine - March 2010 - under the fresh picks I found some very interesting new plant markers for the garden.

  • Pigeon Toe Ceramics                                                          These handmade porcelain stakes are available in ten different herb names.
  • Shop Terrian                                                                 Twigs with a carved spot for penciling in plant information.
  • Monkeys Always Look                                                      The seller of these recycled silverware markers will emblazon them with whatever you choose.
  • Simplemente Blanco                                                           The rustic disks come blank for customizing. They stand at eighteen inches high, so they will always remain visible.


 

Tip: Save Your Windows & The Birds 

Each year millions of songbirds are killed by flying into windows. A terrific and decorative way to prevent these unfortunate incidents is by placing decals or bird silhouettes on the outside of large windows and sliders.
