Open Garden Days - general impression

Besides my aunt having a stall with flowers and garden accessoiries, there were lots of other stalls as well. Self-made postcards, paitings, crochetings (I bought an extremely cute crochetted cherry key-ring).. There was a tea garden where you could buy a drink and something sweet such as apple pie or carrot cake. Aaaand the weather was fantastic! This day was an absolute success!
And I left the garden with tons of inspiration!

Open Garden Days - Sfeervol BijKomen

Yesterday I went to see some of the 'Open Garden Days' in the Dutch Beemster. During these days, several families open their gardens for visitors, having a small market where they sell all sorts of crafty works and arts.
My aunt just started up her own little enterprise, Sfeervol BijKomen, giving flower arranging workshops. She also had a little stall in one of those participating gardens, where people could buy her flower decorations, soap decorations and home/garden accessoiries.
