Green Week, Days 4, 5, 6...

Well, I slacked the past couple of days and didn't post any pictures for the Green Week, so here they are today!

Also, I started working on a project I'm eager to finish, even though the weather has warmed up significantly and more than likely I won't be needing a cowl in the near future. But I consider that project more of a learning experience more than anything else, and I have to say I am really enjoying it so far.

My lilac shrubs already have leaves growing, and I am so excited. All in all, it has been a great week so far! Will keep you updated.

Green Week, Day 3

Here is a picture of a green pouch to contribute to the green week. This pouch is filled with seeds - corn, bean, wheat, etc. It symbolizes the power of nature and reminds us of the greatest miracle - that of creation, spring has to give us. Don't know about you, but looking at that pouch makes me feel extremely insignificant in the great circle of things - in a good way!

Green Week, Day 2

After a productive day shopping (more on that later!) I got materials for Green Week, Day 2 - my new gardening gloves I am so proud of!

Up until now I have used bare hands when working on my plants, but because these looked so cute, were only $1 and have flowers on them, I got 2 pairs! I am so happy!

Additionally, Emily at Shining Egg created a Flickr Green Week Pool for all participants to upload their pictures. Just look at all that green yummy goodness!

Green Week, Day 1

To start this month off and give us all the ability to feel the spirit of spring, Emily at Shining Egg is hosting a Green week, and so I decided to participate. I really loved the Yellow week the ladies had, and now this is a chance for me to join in! Technically, this is Day 2, but since the camera was charging yesterday, I'll post Day 1 and 2 in two separate threads today.


Here's one of my Pelargonum plants. I love the smell of its leaves and the amazing shade of green they have this time of the year. It's like a small patch of nature springing in the living room, and it so adds color and atmosphere in the room. I love it!
