String Gardens

Fedor Van der Valk, is the artist behind the famous string gardens that have garnished the posts of many blogs. They are beautiful and exude a sort of whimsical feel. The sceneries from these pictures seem to come straight out of a Lewis Caroll book. I admire his work very much, it easily combines the playfulness of art and the beauty of nature.  These creations could also make an interesting DIY project.

A little bit of magic

On this grey sunday afternoon I decided to add a little bit of brightness and cheer to the day with some inspirational summer photographs. I miss being able to walk barefoot on my lawn already. The gardens I love most are the ones that aren't pampered, the untidy ones where perennials are overgrowing over fences and vines taking over brick walls. The lack of human intervention is often the solution to having a lush and healthy garden.

You simply get lost for hours in this tumblr page. Inspirational images indeed.

Look who it is, my other little furry friend. Meet Frodo. Also, meet my garden. Following shots underneath from myself.
