Mother’s Day at Terrain

Terrific Terrariums

Imagine our surprise when our boys asked if we could spend Mother’s Day afternoon making a terrarium together…  Then we found out that they would get extra credit in science if they complete the assignment!

Tall Terrarium Plants

Regardless of why they want to get their hands dirty and plant little botanical beauties in a jar, we think it’s a great idea – especially since we get to drag them to Terrain for the afternoon!

And while we’re there, why not treat ourselves to some Mother’s Day gifts…

The Sprouted Kitchen

Hundreds of dewdrops to greet the dawn,
Hundreds of bees in the purple clover,
Hundreds of butterflies on the lawn,
But only one mother the wide world over.

How are you celebrating Mom this weekend?

Plants + Eggs = Pleggs

When Elizabeth from Pretty Pink Tulips asked us how we liked our eggs the other day, we immediately thought “with plants and flowers, of course!”  That’s because we had just picked up the pretty little plantings above at Terrain for our Easter table.  Two of the plants are actually growing out of dyed eggs while the other two are planted in ceramic ones.

Lilies + Eggs

While we’ve seen Easter bouquets using eggs before, we like the fact that our little eggs hold live plants (for now!)  We’re even thinking these might make great place card holders and our guests can take them home after lunch…

Here’s to appreciating the beauty of budding blooms this weekend and Happy Easter!

Terrain… Coming Soon!

Terrain is Terrific!

A beautiful weekend and unseasonably warm temperatures (again!) have us wanting to get our hands dirty in the garden and get some planting done.  We’re hoping Terrain in Westport opens soon as it’s THE store for the gardener (even ones with two black thumbs!)

Westport Store

If the Westport Terrain is anything like the Glen Mills, PA, store, we’re in for a treat!  The DIY gardener will love the large retail space filled with everything from plants and planters to the latest in garden gear.

Spring Things

And those who would rather stick to decorating the inside of their home won’t be disappointed with the wonderful range of furniture, accessories and lighting.

April Events

Seeing as the store isn’t open yet, we might have to schedule a road trip this weekend to attend the container gardening demonstration – one of the many events scheduled for the month of April – and dine on locally sourced goodies at the cafe.

So Yummy!

For now, we’ll just have to satisfy ourselves with Terrain’s Bulletin to get updates and be inspired - we really like their “collected” series of posts!
