Topiaries
Remember how I told you I liked plants? Remember? That Andie McDowell movie, Green Card and horticulture classes? Well, during this phase, I also had a thing for topiaries. The small indoor variety, not the big animal shaped hedges. Anyways, I was trying to think of what to put in my kitchen window and topiaries came to mind. I still do have a thing for them, after all. So on my window, I’d like to have something like these.
You get the gist. This reminds me that I once made topiaries for a craft fair out of dried eucalyptus branches and was amazed that they all sold. If I was a savvy blogger, I’d have a tutorial of this ready for you right here and now. Alackaday, I am ill-prepared. I’ll have something for you next week. This sounds like a weekend project for me and the kids! Happy weekend everyone.
wow, i love that you made topiaries! these are beautiful, as are the settings they are in, nice to see something calming on a friday, thanks
ohhh they are soo beautiful!! i think i should make one of these for my home! have a great weekend dear!!
I really love the middle one you posted. It’s unique and weird, which for me is always an instant hit when it comes to plants! I think it’s a great idea! Happy weekend
I’ll take those kitchens in addition to the topiaries! I don’t really have the room for them in my current kitchen — maybe someday.
I had no idea what these were even called, but I really like these, especially the tree-like ones. My boyfriend and I will have to talk to see if I can handle one of these (without neglecting or killing it).
the super tall one is oh so gorgeous. great post! i haven’t thought about the movie “green card” in years!

I never have any luck growing any kind of plant. I think that’s usually because after a few days, I forget to water them lol.

Funny, I was just thinking about the Plants I would like to put in my new kitchen. Topiaries are perfect, indeed. I will be waiting for that tutorial!
Happy SITS Day. Enjoy the comment love today.
Ah, so pretty. You can’t go wrong with topiaries.
Topiaries are pretty! Love your pictures. Stopping by from SITS.
These are so cute and classy, I never tried these inside, although I’ve got a picture in my mind of something for the garden like this with some bay trees.
What a beautiful kitchen! I love topiaries!

Love ‘em! But can’t have ‘em, because my cats would destroy them in a day or two. We can only have plants that hang up high.
Such beautiful, peaceful rooms! Just lovely!
I’m stopping by from SITS. I love the idea of topiary and yet my kitchen is bare when it comes to any kind of garden or floral arrangement. I may have to change that!
I can’t wait to learn how to make these – I’ll be back!
Love love love the first one! SO cool! Stopping in from SITS!
Cool! I {{heart}}} that kitchen! WOW!
Happy SITS Day! I’d kill for a kitchen like that.
I love that Green Card movie, too. When I was a kid my family lived outside the US (mostly in South America and Africa). We only had a handful of English VHSs and Green Card was on one of them.
And totally excited about that tutorial
Happy SITS day,
