Illuminated Planter

It has been exactly a month since I last take care of our plants and trees in our garden. Having a new baby at home is a total blessing but it disorganizes my everyday routine for the past two years since I have started gardening at home. Which I don’t have any regrets at all. Good thing I have my husband to help me with the gardening duties and tasks because I was advised by my doctor not to do any outdoor activities for a while so that my body could fully recover after giving birth. While I was putting my baby to sleep last night, I saw these beautiful dancing Christmas lights at our neighbor’s front yard.  And I suddenly realize that it’s almost Christmas and yet we haven’t decorated our home. 



Since, I really can’t go out to buy additional decors, I decided to purchase online.  I immediately open the page where we normally buy products and other materials. I feel very secure that my credit card details and all other information are kept private in this site. I bought additional illuminated planters for our garden. I wanted to bring our evening garden to life but also making sure that it would last long and could tolerate any weather condition. With hooks and lattice, I know that their products are of the highest quality and the materials are durable as well. I bought different colors and shapes of illuminate planters since they could be a good alternative for Christmas lights outdoors. 



Illuminated planter is a great décor, planter and lights all in one product. I am looking forward to receive this product in a couple of days. And I can’t wait to see our garden at night with these planters in it. Without lights our world would never be the same and without these lights there would also be no sight.

Give Love on Christmas Day


Christmas season can be felt already, It is just 8 days to go before we celebrate the Birthday of Jesus. While many of us are already done with the Christmas shopping for their gifts, as well as for the ingredients of the food that we need to serve in our table on that special day, I am busy decorating our garden at home. I am already done with putting Christmas lights on the trees and have made my very own version of a snowman. I have also added new plants on the walkway that is planted on a clegane illuminated square planter. It is indeed very attractive especially at night, it illuminates brightly on our walkway, guiding us to the front door of the house. My son is no longer afraid to go out at night, especially with all of these lights turned on.


We are all busy preparing for the food, decorations and gifts at home, but there are others out there who will not celebrate Christmas this year because they lost their own home and some of their family members too. Let us all remember to give love not only on Christmas day, but for every waking moment of our lives. We should also be thankful for what we have right now, because we never now until when we could have it. Giving something whole-heartedly for those who are needy is already enough reason to smile this Christmas day, because you know that one way or another you made someone very happy. It is in giving that we receive, is indeed a true statement, but we should also remember that expecting something big in return for all the good deeds you have is a bad idea. Because in the first place, we should not expect for a return at all, God is working miracles on ways that we least expect them.


Love and giving is the true spirit of Christmas, so, we should always remember to think not only about ourselves but also think of others who needs our help and assistance. We should all be happy and thankful for the gift of life, that God gave us a chance to experience what it is like to live here on Earth.

A Christmas Wish


The days are fast approaching, three more months to go and it's already December. It only means that Christmas is already in the air, as early as this month, radio stations and other food establishments are playing Christmas Songs. I remember being greeted "Merry Christmas" by a friend of mine on my Facebook account, Social media seems to be growing fast these days especially for kids, who loves to surf the internet. It also is an easier means of communication for family members who stays at the different part of the world. Unlike before, people used snail mail to send their loved ones stories and experiences that they had encounter, but nowadays, people just take pictures and upload it directly to their account and put some caption on it, automatically your fiends and family members will be updated too. 


Since some of our relatives who works out of the country can't really make it home this December for so many reasons that even they can't control. We should be thankful to the internet and the many applications that we could use to still see our loved ones face to face and never miss the important moments and celebrations in our life, in that way, we could somehow lessen the feeling of homesickness of the person who is away. Gift giving during Christmas has become a custom already, If I were to choose what gift I would like to have or receive, It is a gift to spend a holiday on a vacation at the beach with my family. I had always like the feeling of being near the water and exploring it's beauty while staying of course at a nice hotel for our accommodation. 


Being able to unwind and also to bond with my family would be the best Christmas gift for me. Staying at a hotel where we could be pampered and of course we could relax by the end of the day or after a tiring activity at the beach. Eating our breakfast or dinner at our own veranda with all these lovely flowers planted on a flat panel premiere planters surrounding our room and veranda. Having not to worry of anything at that moment and being away from work and just focusing on the vacation will definitely revive and revitalize anyone on that holiday vacation. It is something that I wish to receive this Christmas, I hope that there will be a generous Santa Claus who could make these wishes come true...
