Walk in the park, surrounded by plants can make the heart glad. Oxygen-rich plants can refresh the mind is tired. Structuring a nice park can also be eye Conditioning.
To enjoy the sensation that you can create paths in the park. The path can be made from black or white coral stone laid in the middle of the park form the road. Make it a little footpath snaking is not just a straight line.

Besides stepping stone can also be used for the path. Stepping Stone is the footrests are made of cement that are printed in a certain shape. Stepping stone was laid in the park so that our feet do not step on the grass as they walk through the park.

Decorating the garden is not just merely about plants. You can be creative in other corners. In the area or the stepping stone path is an example. Usually stepping stone on the market generally round or square. Use creativity to make it different.

Terrain Weck Succulent Collection

As a card-carrying member of the black-thumb club, succulents have always carried a sort of promise in my mind. They require very little attention, and generally seem pretty hard to kill. The same goes for terrariums.

So, of course, I got super excited when I saw this collection of succulents planted in Weck canning jars -- until I realized that Terrain only delivers them within 30-miles of their Pennsylvania location.

I still couldn't resist posting for those of you who are more ambitious than me -- Weck canning jars are cheap, and Trader Joe's usually sells succulents at a price that makes a little experimenting seem worth it.

Modern Planters

When we go to a really cool restaurant in Miami or Los Angeles we are always envious of the huge, modern planters that they have.  It's really hard to find them.  Most of the pottery places that we have in our local area sell the traditional planters.  If you have a modern home you are kinda out luck.

Anyway, we just found a great source today for huge, commercial modern planters that we thought we'd share with you.  They are so cool!  We have no idea how much they cost, sorry. But if you are interested drop us a line and we'll get pricing info for you.

Here are some samples:

These are made by Green Form. To see more see their web site.

Modern Planters from 18Karat

We never forgot the first time we saw the 18Karat showroom... This Canadian company sells the simplest things, yet they display them in such an incredibly clever way, the overall effect was just...genius! It's like Pottery Barn but with WAY, WAY more style. Their style is very simple, very organic (a very overused word, we know, but it's very true in this case).

Our favorite things to buy from this line are the modern planters. Oh my goodness, they are simply beautiful! It's the kind of planters you see in very chic and modern restaurants or hotels.

Here are some samples:








18K puts out beautiful catalogs that you can view online. In addition to planters, they also sells fabulous home accessories and dinnerware (we highly recommend the later). You can view the catalog and purchase online at the 18k web site.

Note: Be warned that planters are heavy and very expensive to ship...
