Grow Vegetables or Flowers almost anywhere



These Growing Bags from Zyanwa are really neat and can be used in big or small spaces. Think about it. Growing vegetables on your terrace, porch, or steps.

The bags hold 5 gallons, are breathable, and come with sturdy handles in case you need to relocate your garden quickly.

I think this is great for those who can't have a traditional garden but still want to grow some fresh food, and how cute are these filled with flowers?

Quick and easy to use. I haven't used them a whole season yet but hope to get more then one year out of each bucket. You get 5 of these so you can mix it up with what ever you would like to grow.

The Zyanwa growing bags can be found at my affiliate link below.

My first Hand Trowel





Really up until now we have just had a shovel to garden with along with our hands. My father had all of the neat tools, and I am sure if he were still alive I would be able to use all of them, but alas he is not, and his tools were long gone before I decided to garden, so here I am the third year into gardening.

I know have a ratchet pruner, the said shovel, and now this really nice Hand Trowel from LifeWell. I also have a garden knife which is quite nice too.

This year we still used just the shovel because the tools I did get came after we had already planted. Next year I hope to have a few more pieces to make my gardening easier.

With Fibromyalgia I need all of the help I can get to stay on top of my garden and planting. Thankfully I have a great teenage daughter who loves to garden, she has been a Godsend. I love how the handle and trowel are strong and sturdy.

Even though we have not owned a trowel before I have looked and to be honest I was't impressed, most would bend with a  little pressure from your hands, I had no idea how they would stand up to hitting a rock, or breaking up rough ground. With the LifeWell hand trowel I don't have to worry about that it is sturdy and has already stood up to my daughter using it in the garden, plus is looks really nice once cleaned up and put away. Still has some shine to it.


You can find the LifeWell Hand Trowel on Amazon.


What LifeWell has to say about their product.

Floral Picks



Until recently when I did a flower arrangement, wreath, or any other project with fresh, dried, or silk flowers I kind of just did it by eye, no measuring. Sure they came out ok but now that I know how to use floral picks I can really make a better arrangement or project. Floral picks come in kinds of sizes but I find that the 4 inch work best for the projects I do. 

It really is just amazing how the use of an item like floral picks can make a project go from that looks good to where did you get that from, you can proudly just say I did it myself. Floral picks are great for do it yourselfers to professionals. 

You can purchase Royal Imports Floral Picks on Amazon.
