BLOG - Gardens

In a previous post I shared some inspirations for my terrace with you. Since then I have been busy sources the perfect items for my urban oasis. I came across a few cute and space conscious planters that I thought I would share with you.

The Pot Cavalier by AZ&MUT slings over a terrace railing which makes it the perfect small space solution!

There is nothing that makes me happier than Spring in NYC. Although we did not have a harsh winter, I am always eager for the end of March to arrive.  Spring brings new life into the city and truly inspires me. Everything in New York is in full-bloom.

As a transplanted midwesterner living in NYC I often find myself longing for green open spaces and lush gardens. Some of my all time favorite images are of bucolic wonderlands that seem only possible in a dream.  I thought I would share some of these with you starting with a painting by Felice Casorati called Dreaming of Pomegranates. 

The image below is from one of my favorite places in the world, my parents' home in Charlevoix Michigan. My mother and father have taken such care and consideration in the selection of the flowers for their garden.  The sculpture in the background also conjures up wonderful memories of my grandparents home outside of Detroit. This sculpture used to be in their garden. 

And some of my all time favorite garden images from various sources....

I love the below image for many reasons but mainly because it reminds me of the chuppah from my wedding (I swear it is a coincidence!).
