I think I’ve found a great new way to enjoy the beauty of dandelion seeds without them spreading all over the garden (see item #1). And, if you want the ultimate gift for a gardener on Valentine’s Day, see item #3.
You can also find a sweet collection of favorite harvest essentials for gardeners (with a vintage twist) here.
Garden-Inspired Picks
Here’s some favorite garden-inspired items from Etsy.
1. Dandelion Seed Orb Necklace
Here’s the funny thing. I don’t actually wear jewelry (because it’s impractical when gardening and mucking about), but I have fallen in love with this necklace and suspect there is one in my future.

2. Dandelion Seed Paper Weight
I love this. And, if you don’t want it as a paper weight, have it made into the world’s most awesome ring. lol.

4. Succulent Decor
I saw these succulent pillows and got visions of how fun it would be to have an entire livingroom furnished with garden-themed items. Which is how things should be, really.

5. Give a Whom
I love owls and I’m rather picky about my favorite owl pictures and products. This one is the cat’s meow. See how I avoided saying ‘a hoot’?

6. Succulent Treasures
This ladder style of garden planters is gaining in popularity. I think it’s because ladders are a big deal in the garden these days, and anything that makes vertical gardening easier, especially in small spaces, is a welcome addition. This unit has removable boxes and the whole thing is made of cedar. I’d love about 10 of them please.

7. What the Cat is Into Now
This totally reminds me of a cat we used to have (r.i.p.) who would get herself into all sorts of predicaments.
