Summary
A Year of Garden-Inspired Living is a giftable homage to living seasonally and is filled with inspiration for creating a garden-inspired life of grace and abundance.
Description
Bring simplicity and grace into your life, garden, home, and community with this treasured collection of ideas and daily inspiration from garden lifestyle guru Linda Vater.
Whether it’s connecting with a neighbor over a bowl of homemade soup, displaying a much-adored collection of books, creating personalized seed packets, setting a beautiful seasonal tablescape, or compiling a basket of comforts for someone in need, author Linda Vater (@potagerblog) has gathered a wealth of reflections on how to make the ordinary extraordinary and bring the joy of the garden’s seasons back into your life.
Each page features a narrative story about a special life moment, followed by an idea for bringing that moment to fruition in your own life, all organized by the season. Beautiful watercolor illustrations add further inspiration and a spark of creativity to the notion on each page.
A small sampling of the guidance found inside includes:
- Giving a house blessing to a brand-new homeowner
- Picking a seasonal wardrobe “piece” and letting it shine
- Spreading seeds in an old spice jar
- Being intentionally inefficient
- Wearing your garden boots with a flouncy dress
- Welcoming friends and neighbors to cut bouquets from your garden
- Having a “ladybug party” for the children in your life
- Creating herbal bouquets for cooking
- Making and displaying decorative fall leaf bouquets
And so much more!
A Year of Garden-Inspired Living offers an elegant yet easy way to bring the joys and textures of seasonal living into your daily life, welcoming peace and connection to your days and restoring the balance of nature’s seasons in your home and life.
