Every year at this time I come down with a bad case of the gardening bug. It slowly builds up inside me, an ocassional thought here and there . . . turns into an all consuming desire to dig my hands into a bag of potting soil.
No Tools . . . No Gloves
I can't deny myself the pure bliss of gritt under my nails and dirt stained hands.
I know - - I'm weird.
Kids think I'm crazy - - but I'm cool with that!
Happily I fill tiny planters and creamers with wheatgrass seeds. Larger containers are filled with spring blooming bulbs.
Before I know it the pretty display in my kitchen window is replaced with field of plastic wrapped containers.
To most it's not a very pretty sight, but to me . . .
It's anticipated beauty and I love it.
Hope you have a great day,
Robin
I love dirt...the feel of it, the smell of it...the happy results of adding seeds or bulbs to it! Can't wait to see the beauty! Much love, Lisa
ReplyDeleteOh, I love your plastic covered gardens. I bought some wheat grass last year, but I think ti would be much smarter if I just planted my own. Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea Robin!!~ I'll have to try this in some of my white ironstone.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a lovely afternoon.
Sincerely,
Melinda
Ooh, that is such a neat idea! The combination of white and green will be magnificent! Perhaps I should give this a try?!
ReplyDeleteI have the digging bug, too. We are supposed to have great weather this weekend so I hope to be doing some gardening. Great idea with the pots, so cute.

I was wondering why the little planters were covered with plastic. How cute those will be.
ReplyDeleteGood for you! You will have such a lovely display in your window when they begin to pop through the soil!

Every year I think about planting too late. Thanks for the reminder. This year I might have some for Easter. Mimi
