Our Balcony This Summer.

September 6, 2013


Hello! :) Remember our balcony this spring after I had just started planting everything after winter or do you remember all the balcony photos from last year? :)
During the past few months, everything has been growing like crazy! One part were tiny plants which we either bought or got from my mother, the other part included flowers I have grown myself. :) I’m super proud of this pretty oasis and I always enjoy how colorful it’s outside my bedroom!

Mhhh, so delicious! Back in spring, my mother has sent me six different kind of tomato plants and it was lots of fun watching them grow and comparing the taste and look of all of them. Some are tiny and red, some others are big, shaped like a pea and others are super sweet. And all of them are organic.



The cute little bird’s house I got from Flo as a birthday present two years ago. :) And of course soap bubbles can’t be missing!

Do you sea the white plant sideboad? I found it on the street last year just after someone had thrown it away. One person’s trash is another person’s treasure! :)

We have lots of different kinds of herbs like oregano, rosemary, thyme, majoram and shives. Some are homegrown, some have already been tiny organic plants when I bought them.

Tiny pops of color everywhere you look: colorful flower pots, tiny paper umbrellas, flowers, felt pinwheels and paper straws.

I love this sight so much! The pillows are handmade, here is the pillow case sewing DIY.

Do you see the sunflowers? They were all grown by me with tiny sunflower seeds, eeeks!



Oh, how much I love this place! Those photos have already been taken more than a month ago (I just didn’t find the time to blog them, yet), so in the meantime, the sunflowers and other plants have even been growing bigger! :)
Do you have an own oasis, too? :)

    Das ist einfach traumhaft, dein Balkon ist richtig toll! Ich würde gerne als Vögelchen in dem süßen Haus einziehen und jeden Tag in deiner grünen Oase genießen =)

    Ich muss ein bissel schmunzeln…WOW richtig süß :) mein Balkon sieht dagegen gaaaaaaanz anders aus. Zwar größer, aber ich habe mich in die Erikas verliebt und kauf sie mir immer wieder für den Herbst.
    Mit Blumen und Pflanzen bin ich immer sehr vorsichtig, weil mein Daumen nie so richtig grün wird.

    Es grüßt ganz lieb

    Wunderbar! Ich glaube ich hätte nicht die Geduld und Liebe so einen Balkon zu pflegen, aber deiner sieht so toll aus! Ich möchte jetzt auch einen haben :)
    Liebe Grüße,

    Liebe Lu,

    ich schließe mich an. Dein Balkon sieht soooo schön aus. Wer braucht da noch Urlaub, wenn man vor dem eigenen Schlafzimmer ein soooo schönes Plätzchen hat?!…
    Und um deinen grünen Daumen beneide ich dich auch ein kleines bisschen… :-/

    Liebe Grüße aus dem wilden Süden Deutschlands

    Du hast einen sehr schönen Balkon! Sehe ich das richtig: Deine Balkonbrüstung ist etwas breiter als "normal"? Hast Du das selbst verbreitert und wenn ja, wo gibt es die Anleitung bzw. das Material dazu? Würde das auf meinem – leider eher kleinen – Balkon gern auch so machen.
    Liebe Grüße von einer neuen Leserin,

    Anne.

      Hallo Anne,
      die Brüstung war tatsächlich schon so und ich musste nichts mehr ändern. :)
      Liebe Grüße

    Liebe Lu,
    euer Balkon ist wirklich sehr schön. Ich habe seit ein paar Monaten eine Terrasse. Es ist einfach super Pflanzen wachsen zu sehen, Tomaten zu züchten oder in Erde zu wühlen. Voll entspannend!
    viele Grüße
    Berit
