Secret Garden
Remember when you were young and had a wild and vivid imagination…everything was whimsical, extravagant, crazy, and anything but impossible.
And now that you are an adult with responsibilities, headaches, and heartaches, you forget those innocent days. But now that spring is in full bloom take a day for yourself and retreat to your backyard, your own secret garden. While sipping lemonade and reading your favorite Jane Austen book (or whatever book catches your fancy) you gaze up, the sun lightly kisses your skin as the beams peak through the tall bamboo shading you from the outside world. The butterflies and hummingbirds fill your intimate garden space with a burst of color. The waterfall (you put in last summer) makes a subtle bubbling sound as the water flows ever so gently into the serene koy pond (you put in before the waterfall) in one corner of your peaceful sanctuary.
All these blissful elements don’t have to be exclusive to the backyard, you can also incorporate them into your wardrobe. By mixing and matching color, prints, and solid neutrals, your fantasy garden will no longer be a secret. Check out these picks!
