outdoor inspiration also inside

Hi! I just came from my vacation, that i spend not far away. We stayed in the Netherlands and enjoyed our vacation at Terschelling (a Dutch island). If you like to see peeks you can click here to go over to my blog :) Before i start with today's blog we want to thank Nikolina for rewarding us with the versatile blogger award ❤ I've missed your comment because i was on vacation, but i will make a post about it next week! Do you want us to make a list of inspirational blogs all together or separate? Let me know :)

After spending so much wonderful time outside the last few weeks, outside and inside merge. When it's really hot we have our patio doors open in the early morning to let the fresh air in. I always enjoy eating my breakfast outside at that time, by sitting at our bench in the garden. I't quiet so early in the morning, so you can hear the birds singing....

I love outdoor furniture, picknick baskets, plants, pots and decorations! During the fall and winter i always decorate my garden. This way i can enjoy looking outside when i spend my time sitting at the couch inside with a hot cup of tea. I know it's still the middle of summer, so i'm enjoying every moment that i can spend outside!

a quick hello

Today went by fast. Far to fast. It is bedtime already and I haven't even blogged.
So today just a quick hello from me and the Lupins from my garden.

Come and say hello

It has already been two months that I showed you the first flowers of spring in my garden. These last two months I spent more and more time in the garden. All the sun and rain is doing the plants well. Both the ones a I want and the ones that don't belong in my garden. So I have done a lot of weeding, planting, replanting and seeding.
I dedicated the front part of the garden, closest to the house, to edible herbs. Some of them already started to bloom. Since I don't really need all the herbs to eat, I let them bloom for the biggest part and keep just a little bit free of flowers, so I can eat them too.
The back of the garden is one big wilderness. Last year I took some different seed mixtures, both with indiginous and cultured plants and just trew them in the garden. The result was beautiful! All summer long this part of the garden was full of flowers and buzzing with bees. This year I try to get mostly indiginous species. So again I trew in some seed mixtures, but this time only with plants that belong here.
Well, I think I have talked enough now, let me take you for a little walk in the garden.
