HAPPY AUGUST!

**Photos may take a moment to load**

Hi ,

As the season starts to wind-down, I'm savoring the last of summer weather and hanging out in the garden as much as possible. But I'm also looking forward to next season's blessings too: appreciating those quiet days when no one is around and basking in the still-summer weather, seeing the new crop of fall plant-offerings, getting a parking spot at the park or beach mid-week (yay!)and enjoying the end-of-summer sales so I can stock-up on my favorite things!

SO ENJOY OUR SALE while its still ON! Use the code: SUMMER-19 when checking out of our store today: TwoGreenThumbs.com and save 20% of anything in our online store!

AND what's on the burner for next month? I've got a bunch of new ideas, plants and accessories to add to our miniature gardens AND fairy gardens. I'll be teaching a few techniques to add to our mini-making-skill-sets. AND, as always, adding new insights to increase to our creativity level.

All this while keeping an eye on our budgets, appreciating the "right" plants and trees that work well for us, and respecting the environment by avoiding any future landfill with "stuff" that simply doesn't last. Whew - I know right? It just seems to be the way that I roll these days. I've been told I dance to a different beat and I imagine you do too!

Stay tuned! I'll be back next week with a FULL Mini Garden Gazette!

And Happy Miniature Gardening!

Whatever you do, make it fun,

Janit Calvo, Head MG, Owner
Two Green Thumbs Living Miniature Garden Center

A couple of these posts came up this week so I thought to share them here, ICYMI:

For the Beginner:
101 Series: How to Garden in Miniature

Starts Here.

Understanding Scale in the Mini Garden:
A short visual sequence for you to "see" how it changes.
(Please give us a "like" or "thumbs up!")

Another way to get started is to pick up your copy of the primer for the hobby: Gardening in Miniature: Create Your Own Tiny Living World. You can get it here in our store for 20% off this week - use the code above, (Let me know if you want it autographed!) or you can find it at your local Barnes & Noble (or they can order it in for you,) or it's on Amazon, of course.

ABOUT OUR SHIPPING: We ship internationally (- but not the plants!) All shipping costs are checked by Steve and we refund any savings promptly because of our wide range of unique inventory: we ship tiny miniatures, heavy patio materials and living plants, sometimes the automatic shipping calculator "packs" the order in multiple boxes which costs more. Steve can pack better than any online shipping calculator can - if we can save you money on shipping, we will.
