Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Most Simple Way to Create a Fairy Garden" is a text that gives the reader a basic overview of what needs to be done to create a magical garden.

The author is well aware that gardening is not for everyone but has shown with this text that it can easily be done by anyone. With the convenience of garden outlets that have plants ready to plane and ornaments ready to select it is not that difficult to get that perfect garden anymore. One simply has to plant and maintain. Gardening is a great way to relieve stress and the end result can be shared with others. This book shows how you can get the process started. About the Author: Marie St. Claire has loved gardening ever since she learned what one was as a toddler and she spent a lot of time with her mother Elizabeth who did gardening as a hobby. From her mother she learned how to make a flower garden for the beauty of it, a vegetable garden for the self sufficiency and she also learned how to make those whimsical gardens filled with brightly colored flowers and strategically placed fairies, gnomes and other ornaments. She carried this hobby into her adult life and made it her point of duty to share this hobby with as many interested persons that she could find. Stemming from this she also made the decision to create a book that would give a bit more information on gardening and what someone would need to create a great whimsical, magical garden.

With this accessible and inspirational guide, Nicole aims to return the kitchen garden to its rightful place just outside of every backdoor. Learn the art of kitchen gardening as you discover: What characteristics all kitchen gardens have in common How to design and install gorgeous kitchen garden beds using metal, wood, or stone Why raised beds mean reduced maintenance What crops are best for your kitchen garden A planting, tending, and harvesting plan developed by a pro Season-by-season growing guides It's time to join the Kitchen Garden Revival and start growing your own delicious, organic food.
