Miniature Japanese Inspired Garden

While browsing my saved channels on Youtube, I came across this tutorial for a miniature Japanese inspired garden.  Since fairy gardens are all the rage right now for both indoors and out (my miniature hobbit garden is growing well where it sits on my front porch in the eastern sun), this video will definitely appeal to those crafty readers out there who are eager to take on a new challenge.  Isn't that a cute lantern? The waterfall and bamboo water features are very clever.  I got some really good ideas from this.   Give this one a try!

Trending: Fairy Gardens

Fairy gardens, hobbit gardens, miniature gardens; whatever you call them, they are on trend this year.  So if you like to try something new, perhaps these will pique your interest.  You can find workshops at your local garden centres (Salisbury Greenhouse has one coming up very soon), even Muttart Conservatory is offering an all-inclusive class on designing and building your own Hobbit Garden.  Here's some inspiration for you.  I bet you'll get the bug too and join thousands of others who have found the delight in designing and constructing their own miniature worlds.
