After a weekend spent weeding and mulching the yard (thankyou Grimm's for the fine, dark mulch), and another setting up some inexpensive drip irrigation hoses through the ornamental beds, I got to have some more fun with glass gardens.
I wanted to use up all the moss from my first collecting, and display other colorful characters recently brought home. The trick is to get them situated before they've been around too long.
The little landscape painter seen here is housed in a wine decanter. Last week I saw some pretty cool decanters in Kobo's Coffeehouse NW, selling for around $30. The Scilla bulb now lives in this great beaker that I picked up at Paxton Gate in North PDX. If you're ever over that way, they're worth checking out. You can preview them here.
