April Showers...

Bring May Flowers!


It's almost the end of April (well, in 33 minutes, that is). I can hardly believe how fast spring has arrived. I have lots of super cool things I plan on sharing with you guys over the next few weeks, and hope you'll stick around, check in, and let me know what you think.

One of my dreams is to make a Faerie garden, and even though I don't have much space, other than my little  balcony, I plan on converting the hell out of it until it's fully faerie-fied.

A few weeks ago, I purchased five little potted strawberry plants. And my have they grown! They're at least five inches taller, are sprouting new leaves, and finally little cute white flowers! So today we got some soil & fertalizer, and plan to repot the five plants together, into one large pot (I'll share photos with you tomorrow).

Here are some pics of my little budding strawberry plants. I feel like I should name them or something, lol.

note: I totally messed around with the colours in photoshop :P

Aww! Hello little guy!
Do you talk to your plants too?

Big Rain Droplet
Cute snail named George.

Beautiful, lush, pink blossoms
These are a lot pinker than the ones that grow in my backyard


Violet Pansies. These were even more stunning in person.



A fiery tulip?

How was your weekend?

    1. Thanks! I hope the strawberries manage to grow, even if they aren't able to get full on sun light all day. (my balcony is north facing, but I get pretty good light when the sun starts to set). I also got a whole bunch of herb seeds to start a herb garden as well. ^_^

      If you make a garden I hope you'll post photos!! :D
