Window make over

Every time hubby and I go somewhere even in our neighboring town or cities, I always drawn to places that has lots of live plants most specially if it is flowers. It is only here in the US that I find plants that are alive being planted near a mall or any public places and somebody took care of it. One time I was at my friends house and she just finished renovating her window. She  once told me that they need to change their window because in Winter they could feel a draft that comes from those area. This Summer her wishes come true she had a good window make over, and to top it all in front of the window she put window flower boxes. She told me she found this website that sells different kinds of window boxes and she had a hard time choosing which one she is going to buy. I was there at her house when her husband installed those window plant boxes, then I helped her plant the flowers. I was impressed how good it looks. It added the house appeal when we put something in front of the window. I took a picture of each window box so hubby could see how pretty it was. Our house has a huge window in front and sometimes I feel like we are inside a huge tv looking from the road because nothing is blocking the sight. That's when I decided to get a window plant boxes too. It added to the house appeal much so, I love to see every morning looking out seeing all my plants in bloom. That would be cool!!

Flower box

DH and I went out yesterday for a little shopping. Since the day was really nice the sun is out and it was not chilly, I even wore my flip-flops and my capri pants, over all the day was comfortable to roamed around. So we made different stops from different kind of stores. You see Spring is officially here and I am aching to go outside and plant some flowers, clean the yard and do some weeding. But hubby told me that I can't plant outside yet because the plant might die because of frost. Oh gush, I already saw my friends patio who just bought  window boxes and she already put beautiful flowers inside! Hubby told me they lived in California sweetie and you are in Michigan that is too way different zone! 
So what I did yesterday I bought two bags of  two potted soil and window flower boxes. Since I can't put it outside yet I put it inside in our house where the temperature is above freezing. I am so determined to plant it ahead of time that is why hubby just let me do what I wanted to do. I am so thankful that he is very supported of my craziness lol! For few years I am planning to put two window box planters outside specially if I saw some houses and commercial establishment looks very pretty. Now, I am waiting for the frost to be here and then I am ready to put up my windowboxes, wohooo!

Window plant boxes

So now it is officially Winter and here in MI we are covered with all white and naked brown trees. Except for the Christmas lights that soon will be gone too no more lively different colors that you could see and find. Well this coming Spring which I am looking forward to, I am planning to put all our window a window boxes planters.
Since I came here in US I've been bugging my hubby to buy me a window boxes but every time we visited the  garden supply store I couldn't find what I like.  I like to beautify our home this coming spring and plant many different flowers in a window box. Thankfully, I found a website that show case different and beautiful window flower boxes I showed hubby the site and again thankfully he agreed to order those window boxes for me yipeeeyyy!!
